Frequently asked questions
What should a charity look for in an accountant?
A charity should seek an accountant with experience in the voluntary sector, ideally holding qualifications from ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. They must understand the Charity Commission’s Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), manage restricted funds correctly, and prepare annual returns. The accountant should also be familiar with HMRC requirements for gift aid and VAT.
How can an accountant help with HMRC compliance for a charity?
An accountant can ensure your charity meets HMRC obligations, such as submitting accurate annual returns and claiming gift aid on eligible donations. They will advise on VAT exemptions and partial exemption calculations, manage payroll for employees, and prepare Corporation Tax returns if your charity has trading income. Their expertise helps avoid penalties.
What are the benefits of using an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?
ACCA and ICAEW qualified accountants have undergone rigorous training and adhere to strict ethical and professional standards. They possess in-depth knowledge of charity accounting, tax law, and financial management. Engaging such a professional gives trustees confidence that financial reports are accurate, and that the charity remains compliant with all relevant regulations.
Can an accountant assist with a charity’s annual return to the Charity Commission?
Yes, an experienced charity accountant can prepare and submit the annual return to the Charity Commission. They ensure your accounts are prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP, and they help compile the necessary financial information. This reduces the risk of errors and ensures your charity meets its statutory deadlines.
How does a charity accountant help with payroll and Self Assessment?
Charity accountants manage payroll for employees, ensuring PAYE and National Insurance contributions are correctly calculated and reported to HMRC. They also assist trustees or volunteers who receive payments by completing Self Assessment tax returns. This ensures all income is declared and any tax due is paid on time, avoiding interest or penalties.
What is the role of an accountant in managing restricted funds?
Restricted funds must be used only for the purpose specified by donors. An accountant will set up separate accounting records to track these funds, ensuring they are not accidentally spent elsewhere. They also report on restricted fund balances in the annual accounts, providing transparency to donors and regulators.
