The following sp8cific policies are appli8d to particular categories of income.. - incom8 from donations or grants is r6cognis8d wh&n thwé is 8vidence of entiJement to the gif( receipt is probable and rts amwnt can be measured reliably. - legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established. income from donated goods is measured at fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated ￿sale value. Donated facilÈties and services are recognised in the accounts when received rf the value can be reliably measur8d. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers. income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classrfied as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned rf unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted. Resources expendod Exp8nditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activites to which it relates. expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charrt8ble trading activit8S, 8nd the sale of donated goods. - expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charty in undertaking activites that further its ch8ritable aims for the benefit of the beneficiaries, including those SUPP¢Jrt costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities. other expendrture includes all expanditure that is neither re18ted to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitabSe activities. All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activites they contribute to on a reason8ble, justrfiable and consistent basis. Taxation The taxation expense represents aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that it re18tes to items recognised in other compreh8nsive income or directly in capital and reserves. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in &epFtal and reserves, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current 8nd past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or ￿￿Ver using the tax rates and I￿S that have tjeen enacted or subst8ntively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differènces at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other def6rred tax assets are recoanised to the ethnt that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable Profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that hav8 been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the tim ing difference.

Glenarfrff Improvement Group Company Ilmlted by guarantee Notes to the financial statements (continued) Year ended 30 November 2022 Tanglble assets Tangibl6 assets are inrtially recorded at cost. and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated d8preciation and impaiment lossès. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. An incr8ase in th8 carying amLwnt of an ass8t as 8 r8sult of a revaluation, is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in capital and reserves, except to the extent it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously reco3nised in profit or loss. A decrease in th8 carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation 15 recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any previously recognised revaluation increase accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset Where a revaluation decrease ex￿d5 the accumulated revaluation gains sccumulated in capital and resorvas in respect of that 8SS8t, the excess sh811 bg recognised in profit or loss. Depreclatlon Deweciation is calculat8d so as to write off th8 Cost or valuation of an asset, less its rèsidual value, over the useful economic lffe of that asset as follows.. Short leasehokl property Plant and machinery 100 straight line 10% straight line If there is an indi&ition that there has been 8 signrficant ch8nge in depreciation rate, useful lrfe or rgsidual valua of tangible a&8ets, the d8pr8ciation is revisad pr08P8Ctiv&ly to reflect the new estimates. Impalrmont A review for indicators of impainnent is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impaimients are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable 8mount of the cash-g8nerating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identrfiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that are largely ind8p8ndent of the eAsh infiows from othar assets or groups of assets. Stocks Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, cL)sts of converston arKI other ￿)StS incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Page 13

Glenariff Improvement Group Company limited by guarantee Notes to the financial statements Icontinued) Year ended 30 November 2022 Government grants Govemment grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are not recognised until there is reasonabla assurance that tha company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. Governm8nt grants are recognised using the accrual model and the perfom18nce model. Under the accrual model, govemment grants re18ting to revenue are recch3nised on a systematic basis over the periods in which the company recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. Grants that are receivable as compensation ￿ expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the entity with no future related costs are r8cognised in income in the period in which it becomes receivable. Grants relating to assets aro recognised in income on a systematic basis over the expected useful lrfe of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as deferred incom8 and not deducted from the ca￿yIng amount of the asset Under the performance model, where the grant does not impose specified future perform8nce-rel8ted corKlitions on tha recipent, it is recognisad in income when the grant prt>ceeds are received or receivable. Mthere the grant does impose specrfied future perfornance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income only when the perfomance-related conditions have been met. Where grants received are prior to satisfying the revenue recognition criteria, they are recognised as Financial instruments A financial asset or a financial liability is reo)3nised only when the company l)ecomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. B8sic financial instruments are initially recognised at th8 transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised 8t the present V8lue of the future payments discounted at 8 market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Where investments in non-convertible preference shares and non-puttable ordinary shares or preference shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otheNise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value reco3nised in profit or loss. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment. Other financi81 instruments, including derivatives, ar8 initl8lly recognised 8t fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond nomial business temis or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in profit or loss, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship. Financial assets that are measured at cost or 8mortised cost are reviewed for obj'ective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is obiectFVè evidence of impairnient, an impainnent loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. For all equity instruments regardless of s1gnrflcan￿, 2nd other financial assets that are individually signrficant, these are assessed individually for impaimient. Other financi81 assets or either assessed individually or grouped on the b8sis of similar credit risk characterist￿. Any reversals of impairment are recognised in profit or loss immedialety, fio the extent that the reversal does not resutt in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impaiment not previously been recognised. Limited by guarantee The company is limited by guarantee arKI does not have a share capital. In the event of the company being wound up, the liability of each member is linited to £1. Page 14
