## _**Notes to the Accounts**_ 

**Period End Date 31st December 2024** 

## **1 Basis of Financial Statement** 

As the  total income of the congregation is less than £250,000 the congregation has elected in accordance with the provisions in The Charities (Accounts & Reports Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015 to prepare its accounts on a receipts and payments basis. 

## **Fund Accounting** 

Endowment funds are funds, the capital of which must be retained either permanently or at the congregations discretion; the income derived from the endowment is to be used either as restricted or unrestricted income depending upon the purpose for which the endowment was established in the first place. 

Restricted funds comprise income from donations and payments for specific congregation activity intended by the donor. 

Unrestricted funds are incomes which are to be spent on the congregations general purposes.
