ABBEYFIELD RUTHERGLEN SOCIETY LIMITED PAGE 10 REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF ABBEYFIELD RUTHERGLEN SOCIETY {Cont'd} Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-complian with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed b&low= We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the company operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that havè a direct effect on the determination of material amounls and disclosures in the financial statements. The laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Companies Act 2006, OSCR requirements and Care Inspectorate. We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities including fraud to be.. Management oveIde of controls to manipulate the charity's perfomance. Timing and completeness of revenue recognition., Management judgement applied in calculating estimates and provisions., and Compliance wilh relevant laws and regulations which directly impact the financial statements and those that the charity needs to comply with for the purpose of trading. Our audit prOdureS to respond to these risks included- Testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness., Testing a sample of revenue transactions and associated recognition of revenue invoices spanning the year end to ensure appropriate., Evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the nomal course of business., Reviewing judgements made by management in their calculation of accounting estimates for potential management bias., Enquiries of management about litigation and claims and inspection of relevant correspondence- Reviewing legal and professional fees to identify indications of actual or potential litigation, claims and any non-compliance with laws and regulations., Reviewing and sample of year end d8btor balances to ensure post year end reIPtS support debtor recoverability., Performing a disclosure checklist on the financial statements to ensurè Companies Act 2006 requirements are satisfied., Analytical proGedures to identify any unusual or unexpeded trends or relationship. and Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance to identify any matters indicating actual or potential fraud. Be¢ause of the inherent limitations of an audtt, Ihere is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance wilh regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in Ihe financial statements, as we will be16ss likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than eor, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

FINDINGS FROM OUR AUDIT
RISK 1 – REVENUE RECOGNITION FRAUD RISK
In accordance with ISA 240 revenue recognition is a presumed significant risk. This risk area includes the potential for material misstatement due to fraudulent financial reporting relating to revenue recognition. This often results from an overstatement of revenues through, for example, premature revenue recognition or recording fictitious revenues. It may result also from an understatement of revenues through, for example, improperly shifting revenues to a later period.
THE KEY JUDGMENTS INVOLVED IN THIS RISK
Management may make judgements on the nature and extent of the controls it chooses to implement, and the nature and extent of the risks it chooses to assume in determining which controls to implement to prevent and detect fraud with regards to revenue recognition.
OUR RESPONSE TO THE RISK
We designed and implemented specific procedures over income transactions based on risk criteria as follows;
-
Understanding the nature and controls surrounding material income streams, through discussion with finance and performing walkthroughs.
-
Perform ‘cut-off’ testing by obtaining a listing of income recorded in November and December and confirming the accounting treatment was correct.
-
We challenged and corroborated the income recognition, obtaining third party evidence for rights of receipt and the appropriateness of accrued and deferred income.
-
Performed cash after date testing to corroborate the recoverability of debtors (and hence income) recorded at the balance sheet date.
OUR CONCLUSION
We did not identify any issues as a result of our audit testing, and we consider that the revenue is appropriately stated.

FINDINGS FROM OUR AUDIT (cont.)
RISK 2 – MANAGEMENT OVERRIDE OF CONTROLS FRAUD RISK
In accordance with ISA 240 management override is a presumed significant risk. This risk area includes the potential for management to use its judgement to influence the financial statements as well as the potential to override Abbeyfield Rutherglen Society’s controls for specific transactions or to reach specific desired outcomes. Management is in a unique position to override controls that otherwise appear to be operating effectively. This is relevant to all organisations and entities, and we do not consider there to be a risk specific to Abbeyfield Rutherglen Society.
THE KEY JUDGMENTS INVOLVED IN THIS RISK
There is one member of staff who performs the majority of tasks within the finance function, albeit there is oversight from the Board. This gives rise to management override of controls and a higher fraud risk
OUR RESPONSE TO THE RISK
We have considered the sensitivity of judgements made in preparing the financial statements. We also remained alert to significant or unusual transactions out with of Abbeyfield Rutherglen Society’s normal course of business.
We also designed and implemented specific procedures over journal entries based on risk criteria and tested adjustments made to the trial balance for appropriateness. We concluded that no material bias was made by management, and no instances of management override were identified.
We completed system notes and walkthroughs to confirm the capabilities of the finance staff being able to override figures and transactions. Given the level of review and authorisation from the Trustees we regard this risk as low.
OUR CONCLUSION
Our testing identified no indication of management override of controls.

APPENDIX A – ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
INDEPENDENCE
We have not identified any further matters with regards to integrity, objectivity, and independence since our discussions throughout the audit. We confirm that AAB partners and staff are independent of The Abbeyfield Rutherglen Society.
AUDIT MATERIALITY
In our Audit Planning Report, we set out the threshold below which we would consider potential adjustments as clearly trivial. At the conclusion of our audit this threshold remained unchanged.
GOING CONCERN
Going concern refers to the ability of Abbeyfield Rutherglen Society to settle its liabilities for at least the 12-month period from the financial statements being signed. The Trustees do not believe there are any inherent uncertainties in respect of going concern.
We have yet to conclude on the Trustees and management’s assessment of going concern as we are awaiting revised budgets, taking into consideration the planned restructure which is confirmed to be taking place post year end within the Society.
