Going concern
|
|
|
|
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees have assessed whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that cast significant doubt upon the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In making this assessment, the trustees take into account all available information about the future which is at least 12 months from the date that the financial statements are authorised for issue.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The trustees consider that the charitable company has adequate resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charitable company to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
