Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 March 2025

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    The income of the Federation is mainly public money provided through statutory bodies such as the Health and Social Care Board. Funding is provided to carry out specific projects within the local geographical area occupied by the members of the Federation. The Board of Directors have a duty to ensure that all funding is used principally for the benefit of the community. Income is recognised within the accounts to match the attributable costs of providing the specific services the Federation has commissioned. Income is deferred where the terms of the contract is that when monies received for specific projects are unspent, they are repayable to the funder. Any surplus arising is held in reserves for spend on future resources for the benefit of the community to which the Federation serves.

    Other accounting policies

    Taxation: Community interest companies are not entitled to any specific corporation tax exemptions and may be liable to corporation tax on profits arising on a taxable trade. Therefore, the Board of Directors will carry on the operations of the Federation to ensure that no profit arises on income from public funds. The board will ensure that any surplus arising from public funds will either be rolled forward and applied to future services under the contract to benefit the community or be refunded. As the Federation has an outside source of income in the way of investment income, a corporation tax liability has arisen in the current year. Employee Benefits: The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets. The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
