1Accounting Policies

Basis of measurement and preparation of accounts
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities”, revised in 2005 (SORP 2005) and applicable accounting standards. The particular accounting policies adopted by the trustees are described below.

Turnover policy
All income is recognised in the statement of financial activities when the conditions for receipt have been met and there is reasonable assurance of receipt. Where a claim for repayment of income tax has or will be made, such income is grossed up for the tax recoverable.
Gifts in kind are shown in the Statement of Financial Activities at the Council’s best estimate of value on acquisition.

Tangible assets depreciation policy
Treasures (tangible fixed assets in the form of works of art, documents and artefacts which the Trust intends to retain indefinitely) are capitalised at cost and are not depreciated because they have indefinite useful lives and high residual values. The Council conducts an annual impairment review.
Display cabinets are depreciated at the rate of 10% per annum on a straight line basis

2Company limited by guarantee
