Turnover

Turnover comprises income from grants, sponsorship and membership.

Income is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the income can be reliably measured. Income is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

The following criteria must also be met before income is recognised:

Grants receivable

Grants are not recognised in the Income Statement until there is reasonable assurance that the company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. Grants are measured at the fair value of the asset received or receivable.

Grants that do not impose specified future performance-related conditions on the company are recognised in income when the grant proceeds are received or receivable. Grants that imposes specified future performance-related conditions on the company are recognised in income only when the performance-related conditions are met. Grants received before the revenue recognition criteria are satisfied are recognised as a liability.

Where a grant becomes repayable it is recognised as a liability when the repayment meets the definition of a liability.

Any grant aid in kind is not included in turnover.

Membership income

Membership income is recognised in the year to which it relates.The proportion of membership income received in the year that relates to a subsequent accounting period is deferred and carried forward to the following financial year.

Sponsorship

Income arising from sponsorship is normally recognised over the period of the sponsorship term. When the sponsorship is linked to a particular event or condition, income is recognised when the specific event has taken place or the condition has been met.

Provision of services

Income from a contract to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Plant and machinery etc

-

25% on cost and 15% on cost

Financial instruments

The company only enters into basic financial instruments, transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet only when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Trade and other debtors that are receivable within one year and do not constitute a financing transaction are recorded at the undiscounted amount expected to be received, net of impairment.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand.

Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at the transaction price and are thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

Going concern

The company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. As there are no uncertainties about its ability to continue as a going concern, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Pension costs

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to the income and expenditure account in the period to which they relate.

Taxation

The company is considered to be a mutual trading entity and any income arising from mutual trading activities is exempt from corporation tax.
