disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such
matters. The procedures do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and
consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements.

Restricted funds comprise (a) income from endowments which is to be expended only on the restricted

Page 15

MAGHERA PARISH CARING ASSOCIATION
{A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (cont'd)
30 April 2024
Unrestricted funds are funds which are expendable at the discretion of the Charity in furtherance of its
objectives. In addition to expenditure on activities such funds may be held in order to finance capital
investment and working capital.
Designated funds are general funds set aside by the trustees for use in the future.
INCOMING RESOURCES
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity is
legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be
measured reliably, and it is probable that the income will be received.
For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement
date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance
before entitlement can be obtained, then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the
fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charty, and it is probable that they will be
fulfilled.
Voluntary income received by way of donations and gift is credited to revenue on a receivable basis.
The charity receives grants in respect of support services. Income from government and other grants are
recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been
met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably.
If entitlement is not met, then these amounts are deferred. Revenue grants are credited to incoming
resources on the earlier date of when they are received or when they are receivable unless they relate
to a specified future period.
Other income represents income that cannot be reported under the other analysis headings provided
within the SOFA.
Incoming resources with related expenditure
Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with insurance proceeds) the incoming
resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SOFA.
Page 16

MAGHERA PARISH CARING ASSOCIATION
{A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (cont'd)
30 April 2024
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to
the resources.
Tax reclaims on donations and gifts
Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA at the same time as the gift to which they
relate.
(iv)
Contractual income and performance related grants
This is only included in the SOFA once the related goods or services have been delivered.
(vl
Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount
actually realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold
or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as incoming
resources when receivable.
Gifts in kind
Ivll
These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended)
where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value place on
these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received.
Donated services and facilities
Investment income
This is included in the accounts in the period to which it relates.
Investment gains and losses
This includes any gain or loss on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing
investments to market value at the end of the year.
EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that
aggregate all costs related to the category. It is calegorised under the following headings:

of its activities and services for its beneficiaries and includes salary costs, support service
expenses, and an apportionment of support costs;
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into the categories above.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS Iconvd)
30 April 2024
Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third
parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be
measured reliably.
Governance costs
These are shown within charitable activities and include the costs of preparation and examination of
accounts, the costs of trustee meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or
constitutional matters.
Grants with performance conditions
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output
to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SOFA once the recipient of the grant has provided
the specified service or output.
(ivl
Grants payable without performance conditions
These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no
conditions to be met relating to the grant which remain in the control of the charity.
{v)
Support costs
Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable
activities and include office costs, governance costs and administrative payroll costs.
They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity. Where support costs
cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to cost of raising funds
and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. Premises
overheads have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of the resources. Staff costs and
other overheads have been allocated based on time spent, per capita and activity.
Employee benefits
When employees have rendered service to the charity, short-term employee benefits to which the
employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for
that service.
Value Added Tax
The charity is not registered for VAT purposes, therefore expenditure is shown gross of VAT.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (cont'd)
30 April 2024
ASSETS
Tangible Fixed Assets
The cost of tangible fixed assets is their purchase cost, together with any incidental costs of acquisition.
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets, less their estimated residual
values, on a straight-line basis over the expected useful economic lives of the assets concerned. The
principal annual rates used are as follows-
Long Leasehold
Fixtures and fittings
10 % straight line
10 % reducing balance
In accordance with FRS102, assets under construction are not depreciated until such times as they are
available for use.
Where the recoverable amount of a fixed asset is found to be below its net book value, the asset is
written down to the recoverable figure and the loss on impairment is recognised in the SOFA.
Investments
nvestments quoted on a recognised stock exchange are valued at market value at the year end. Other
investment assets are included at trustees, best estimate of market value.
Leases
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the SOFA on a straight-line basis over the period
of the lease.
Tax
As a charity, the company benefits from various exemptions afforded by tax legislation. It is therefore
not liable to corporation tax on income or gains falling due within those exemptions. Recovery is made
of tax deducted from receipts under gift aid.
Going Goncern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no
material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level
of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted
income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as
going concern.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The following judgements including those involving estimates have been made in the process of
applying the above accounting policies that have had the most significant effect on the amounts
recognised in the financial statements and that have a significant risk of Gausing a material adjustment
to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year..
