## **1 Accounting Policies** 

The principal accounting policies adopted in the compilation of the Receipts and Payments Account and the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are as follows: 

## **Receipts and Payments** 

All items of income and expenditure included in the Receipts and Payments Account have been accounted for on a cash basis. 

## **Assets and Liabilities** 

Buildings have been recorded at their insurance value as no reliable information is available for their cost. 

Cash and deposit balances are stated at their monetary amount 

Liabilities are included where there is a constructive or legal obligation falling upon the Church that requires future economic outflow. However, no account is taken of amounts due in respect of the recurring expenses of the Church as these are recognised in the Receipts and Payments Account when paid. 

## **2 FUNDS** 

Unrestricted funds – this fund is used at the discretion of the trustees in fulfilling the objectives of the Church. 

Restricted funds – these funds are used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Church for specific purposes.
