Frequently asked questions
What specific experience should an accountant have to work with my charity?
An accountant for a charity should have direct experience with the Charity Commission's Statement of Recommended Practice, commonly known as the SORP. They must understand how to manage restricted and unrestricted funds correctly. Look for a professional who regularly prepares annual reports for other charities and who is familiar with the specific filing requirements for your organisation's income bracket. This sector-specific knowledge is far more valuable than general accounting experience.
How does an accountant help with my charity's annual tax return?
Although many charities are exempt from paying Corporation Tax, they still have reporting obligations to HMRC. A specialist accountant will accurately complete your charity's annual return, ensuring that any taxable trading income is declared correctly. They will also manage Gift Aid claims, ensuring you reclaim the tax on eligible donations. Their expertise ensures you meet all HMRC deadlines and avoid penalties for late filing or incorrect information.
What is the role of an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant in charity governance?
An ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant brings a high level of professional rigour and ethical standards to your charity's governance. Their qualification ensures they are up-to-date with the latest financial regulations and accounting standards. They provide independent oversight of your financial controls, helping to prevent fraud and error. Their professional judgement is invaluable when making strategic financial decisions and reporting to your board of trustees.
Can an accountant assist with complex VAT rules for charities?
VAT is a particularly complex area for charities, with many special rules and reliefs available. A specialist accountant can help you navigate these rules, ensuring you are not overpaying tax on your purchases. They will advise on whether your supplies are exempt, zero-rated, or subject to the standard rate. They can also help you manage partial exemption calculations if your charity makes both taxable and exempt supplies, ensuring maximum compliance and efficiency.
How do I find a local accountant who understands charity fundraising regulations?
You can use the AccountingFirms directory to filter for accountants who list charity as a specialist sector. It is important to look beyond just the firm's location and check their individual profiles for relevant experience. You should also consider whether they are a member of a professional body like the AAT, which demonstrates a commitment to professional standards. Reviewing their stated services will help you find a firm that supports fundraising compliance.
What is the difference between a treasurer and a professional charity accountant?
A treasurer is often a volunteer trustee who provides financial oversight and chairs the finance committee, whereas a professional accountant is paid to manage the day-to-day financial record keeping and reporting. The accountant handles the detailed bookkeeping, prepares the statutory accounts, and calculates tax liabilities. The treasurer uses this information to advise the board and ensure financial controls are being followed. Both roles are vital but serve distinct functions within the charity.
