Frequently asked questions
What should a charity look for in an accountant?
A charity should seek an accountant who understands the specific regulations governing the non-profit sector, including the Charity Commission’s reporting requirements. Look for qualifications from recognised bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT, and ask about their experience with restricted funds, Gift Aid, and independent examinations. A good accountant will also be familiar with HMRC rules for charities.
How can an accountant help with HMRC compliance for a charity?
An accountant can assist with preparing and filing accurate tax returns, ensuring that your charity claims all available reliefs, such as Gift Aid and charitable rate relief. They will help you maintain proper records to satisfy HMRC, manage VAT obligations, and advise on Corporation Tax for any trading activities. Their expertise reduces the risk of penalties and enquiries.
Do charities need to register for VAT?
Charities must register for VAT if their taxable turnover exceeds the current threshold. However, some supplies may be exempt or zero-rated. An accountant can analyse your income streams and advise on voluntary registration, which may allow you to reclaim VAT on certain purchases. They will also help you manage partial exemption calculations if you make both taxable and exempt supplies.
What is an independent examination and when is it required?
An independent examination is a lighter-touch review of a charity’s accounts, required for most charities with an income above £25,000 but below the audit threshold. It is carried out by an independent person who is not a trustee, and who has the necessary skills. A qualified accountant can undertake this examination, providing assurance to funders and the Charity Commission.
Can an accountant help with Gift Aid claims?
Yes, an accountant can help your charity maximise Gift Aid by ensuring that all eligible donations are claimed correctly. They will review your donation records, confirm that declarations are in place, and calculate the amount to claim from HMRC. They can also advise on Gift Aid Small Donations Scheme (GASDS) and help you avoid common errors that lead to rejected claims.
How often should a charity review its financial procedures?
It is advisable to review your financial procedures at least annually, or whenever there are significant changes in your activities or staffing. An accountant can conduct a review of your internal controls, recommend improvements, and help you implement robust policies. Regular reviews ensure that your charity remains compliant and that funds are used effectively, protecting your reputation and donor trust.
