Frequently asked questions
What specific services do charity accountants provide?
Charity accountants offer a range of services including preparing SORP-compliant annual accounts, managing Gift Aid claims, handling VAT returns, and advising on Corporation Tax for trading activities. They also assist with independent examinations or audits, payroll for staff, and ensuring compliance with Charity Commission reporting requirements. Their expertise helps charities maintain accurate financial records and meet all statutory deadlines.
How can a charity accountant help with HMRC compliance?
A specialist charity accountant ensures your organisation meets all HMRC obligations, such as submitting accurate Corporation Tax returns for any non-charitable trading income, managing PAYE for employees, and correctly claiming Gift Aid on donations. They also advise on VAT rules, including partial exemption, and help you avoid penalties by keeping your tax affairs in order throughout the year.
Why is it important to choose an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant for my charity?
ACCA and ICAEW qualified accountants are regulated professionals who have undergone rigorous training and must adhere to high ethical and technical standards. Their expertise ensures your charity’s finances are managed correctly, reducing the risk of errors or fraud. They also stay up to date with changes in charity law and tax regulations, providing reliable advice that supports good governance and financial transparency.
What is the role of 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 annual income over £25,000 but below the audit threshold. It involves checking that the accounts are consistent with the charity’s records and that the SORP has been followed. A qualified accountant can carry out this examination, providing assurance to trustees and funders.
How does a charity accountant assist with Gift Aid claims?
A charity accountant helps you maximise Gift Aid by ensuring that all eligible donations are correctly recorded and that declarations from donors are in place. They calculate the amount reclaimable from HMRC, which is currently 25p for every £1 donated, and submit the necessary claims. This can significantly boost your charity’s income, so professional advice is valuable.
Can an accountant help with the financial management of restricted funds?
Yes, managing restricted funds is a key area of charity accounting. An accountant will help you track income and expenditure for each restricted fund separately, ensuring that funds are used only for their intended purposes. They also prepare reports that show fund balances clearly, which is essential for trustee reports and for demonstrating accountability to donors and the Charity Commission.
