Notes to the Financial Statements
|
| |
|
|
1.
|
Accounting policies
|
| |
|
|
(a)
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
| |
|
|
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention in accordance with applicable accounting standards and Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2000).
|
| |
|
|
(b)
|
Income and expenditure
|
| |
|
|
|
Owing to the special nature of the business of the company and in the interests of presenting the results clearly to the members, it is considered inappropriate to adhere to the profit and loss format described under Section 228 of the Companies Act 1985. A statement of financial activities has been prepared in a form which is considered to give the members a true and fair view of the results for the year and which also complies with the requirements of Section 228 of the Act and Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities.
|
| |
|
|
(c)
|
Depreciation of tangible fixed assets
|
| |
|
|
|
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:
|
| |
|
|
|
| Heritable buildings |
50 years |
| Leasehold improvements |
As per remaining number of years in lease |
| Furniture and furnishings |
5 years |
| Office equipment (purchased after 1 April 2004) |
3 years |
| Office equipment (purchased prior to 1 April 2004) |
4 years |
|
| |
|
|
|
Where Furniture and Fittings in tenancies are purchased through housing benefit income, these assets will be expensed in year of purchase.
|
| |
|
|
(d)
|
Interest receivable
|
| |
|
|
|
This is interest receivable on interest bearing deposits.
|
| |
|
|
(e)
|
Grants receivable
|
| |
|
|
|
Revenue grants are recognised in the statement of financial activities (Sofa) in the accounting period to which they relate and are intended to meet revenue expenditure.
|
| |
|
|
(f)
|
Pensions
|
| |
|
|
|
The company encourages employees to take up a pension scheme and pays contributions towards a number of schemes.
|
| |
|
|
|
Defined Benefit Schemes
|
| |
|
|
|
The company contributes to two defined benefit pension schemes : Lothian Government Superannuation Scheme ( LGSS ) and the NHS Superannuation Scheme for Scotland ( NHSS ). Both schemes provide benefits based on final pensionable pay. The assets of the schemes are held separately by their administrators ( LGSS - City of Edinburgh Council and NHSS - Scottish Public Pensions Agency) either with a mixture of insurance companies and managed funds ( LGSS) or directly in gilts ( NHSS).
|
| |
|
|
|
Contributions to the LGSS scheme are charged to the income and expenditure account so as to spread the cost of the pensions over employees working lives with the company. The contributions are determined by qualified actuaries.
|
| |
|
|
|
The NHSS scheme is a multi-employer scheme where the assets and liabilities applicable to each employer cannot be separately identified. It is therefore accounted for as a defined contribution scheme.
|
| |
|
|
|
Defined Contribution Schemes
|
| |
|
|
|
There are two main schemes operating in the company: the Group Personal Pension Scheme, and other Personal Pensions set up by each employee independent of the company. Contributions to the schemes are charged to the income and expenditure account in the period in which contributions become payable.
|
| |
|
|
(g)
|
Operating lease commitments
|
| |
|
|
|
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the statement of financial activities.
|
| |
|
|
(h)
|
Unrestricted funds
|
| |
|
|
|
Surplus revenue funds held within unrestricted funds are carried forward to meet the cost of future activities of both a capital and revenue nature.
|
| |
|
|
|
Commitments for specific activities and needs in the future are dealt with by making allocations to designated funds.
|
| |
|
|
(i)
|
Taxation
|
| |
|
|
|
The company has charitable status and is therefore exempt from taxation under Section 505 of the Corporation Taxes Act 1968.
|
| |
|
|
(j)
|
Allocation of expenditure
|
| |
|
|
|
Whenever possible, expenses are attributed to the category to which they relate. Where this is not possible, expenses are allocated on the basis of time spent by staff on each activity.

NHSS

|
|
Valuations are carried out every five years using the projected unit method. The most recent valuation was at 5 March 1999 for the period 1989/94. The assumptions which had the most significant effect on the results of the valuation are those relating to rate of return on investments, rates of increase of salaries and pensions, increases in early retirements and reductions for deaths in service.
|
| |
|
|
It was assumed that investment returns would be 12.3% p.a. and that salary increases would be 4.4% p.a.
|
| |
|

The pension charge for the period was £12,204 (2004 - £10,461). The charge for the year was £28,371 but a refund of £16,167 was received from NHSS.
