1 Independent examiner's report to the PCC of Christ Church North Finchley This report on the accounts of the PCC for the year ended 31 December 2012, which are set out on pages 2 to 8, is in respect of an examination carried out under s.43 of the Charities Act 1993. Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner As the members of the PCC you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. You may consider that an audit is not required for this year ( under section 43 (2) of the Charities Act 1993 ) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to issue this report on the accounts in accordance with the terms of Regulation 7 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 1995. Basis of independent examiner's report My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43 (7) (b) of the Act. The examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the PCC and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. Independent examiner's statement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, the requirements - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act, and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the regulations, as contained in the Church Accounting Regulations have not been met; or 2 to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

3 Financial report for the year to 31st December 2012 The general church income for the year, before the net income from the Hall and clubs and excluding the Restricted funds, is 111,030. The general church expenditure is 108,885. There was therefore a surplus in the general church funds of 2,145. The Maintenance fund, which is a separate restricted fund, has a surplus of 18,724. The Incoming and Outgoing Resources are not the difference between receipts and payments, since the accounts have been prepared on an accruals basis. As the notes on Principal Accounting Policies disclose, some categories, such as donations received, are accounted for on a receipts or payments basis, but most categories show the amounts receivable or payable for the year. There is a more detailed analysis of most of the categories, and comparison with last year, in the Notes to the accounts on pages 6 to 8.

Of the current assets, the general church bank accounts have decreased 2,629 from 32,663 to 30,034. Taking this into account, together with changes in debtors and creditors, the general church funds ( excluding revised valuations ) have increased by 2,144 ( ie from 224,526 to 226,670 ). The inclusion in the accounts of the Church Hall valuation of 1.513,314, together with the valuation increase of 622 High Road of 10,346, brings the general church funds to 1,750,330. Both the Restricted funds and the Designated funds show a significant increase at the year end, namely 18,724 ( includes a Gift Day of 47,000 and an Expenditure of 25,000 on East Gable repairs ), and 5,461 respectively.
5 Principal accounting policies 31st December 2012 Basis of accounting The accounts have been prepared under the historic cost convention, except for the church building which is excluded and other land and buildings which are included at market value, and in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 1993. Incoming resources Collections and all tithes and donations are accounted for when received. Income tax recoverable on covenanted or Gift Aid donations is recognised when claimed. Grants and legacies are accounted for when the PCC is notified of its entitlement and the likely amount due. All other income is recognised in the period for which it is due. Outgoing resources Grants and donations are accounted for when paid. The London Diocesan quota and all other expenditure is included in the accounts in the period for which it is due. Tangible fixed assets Consecrated land and buildings and movable church furnishings Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by s.96 (2) of the Charities Act 1993. No value is placed on movable church furnishings held by the churchwardens on Special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal, since the PCC considers this to be an inalienable property. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off. Other land and buildings 622 High Road, which is also held by Christ Church for its own purpose, is stated at the current valuation for insurance purposes. It is not depreciated, but any expenditure on maintenance or improvement is written off as it is incurred. The PCC is satisfied that its residual value is no less than its book value. Stephens Memorial Hall is included in the accounts, and its contribution to assets is also based upon its valuation for insurance purposes. Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight-line basis over 3 years. Funds The general fund comprises monies which may be used for the general purposes of the church at the discretion of the PCC. The Designated funds are monies set aside out of the general funds specifically for the Stephens Memorial Hall and the 123 club, English Tuition club and the Thursday Luncheon club. The Maintenance fund is a restricted fund for the benefit of the maintenance of the Church building only.
