Frequently asked questions
What should a charity look for in an accountant?
A charity should look for an accountant who is qualified with a recognised body such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT and has experience in the voluntary sector. They should understand charity law, SORP reporting, and HMRC requirements. It is also helpful if they can advise on Gift Aid, VAT, and Corporation Tax, as well as provide proactive support for financial planning.
How can an accountant help with Gift Aid?
An accountant can help your charity claim Gift Aid on eligible donations, ensuring that all paperwork is correctly completed and submitted to HMRC. They can also advise on how to maximise your claims and avoid common errors. This can make a significant difference to your charity’s income, so it is worth seeking professional assistance.
Are accountants for charities regulated?
Yes, accountants who are members of professional bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT are regulated and must follow strict ethical and technical standards. They are also required to undertake continuing professional development to keep their knowledge up to date. Choosing a regulated accountant provides assurance that your charity’s finances are handled correctly.
What is the role of an accountant in preparing charity accounts?
An accountant prepares your charity’s annual accounts in line with the Charities SORP and the Charities Act. They ensure that all income and expenditure are recorded accurately, that restricted funds are properly accounted for, and that the accounts give a true and fair view. They can also help with independent examinations or audits if required.
How often should a charity review its financial procedures?
It is advisable to review your charity’s financial procedures at least once a year, or whenever there is a significant change in activities or income. An accountant can help you assess your internal controls, identify any weaknesses, and recommend improvements. Regular reviews help to prevent fraud and ensure that your charity remains compliant with regulations.
Can an accountant help with a charity’s tax return?
Yes, an accountant can help your charity prepare and submit its tax return to HMRC, including any Corporation Tax return if the charity has trading activities. They can also advise on tax reliefs and exemptions that may apply. This ensures that your charity meets its obligations and does not pay more tax than necessary.
