Frequently asked questions
What should a charity look for in an accountant?
A charity should look for an accountant with experience of charity accounts, the Charities SORP and fund accounting. Ideally the professional holds an ACCA, ICAEW or AAT qualification and has worked with organisations of a similar size. Trustees should also check the accountant can handle Gift Aid, VAT and annual returns to the Charity Commission, and that they communicate clearly and on time.
Do charities need an audit or an independent examination?
Most smaller charities require an independent examination rather than a full audit, depending on income thresholds and the charity's constitution. Larger charities, or those with particular funding conditions, may need a full audit. A qualified accountant can assess which applies, carry out the work to the correct standard and prepare the report required by the Charity Commission.
How can an accountant help with HMRC and Gift Aid?
An accountant can register a charity for Gift Aid, prepare and submit claims, and ensure donor records meet HMRC requirements. They can also advise on VAT, including partial exemption and zero-rated supplies, and deal with Corporation Tax where trading income arises. This reduces the risk of errors, penalties and lost reliefs, and helps the charity maximise its income.
What records should a charity keep for its accountant?
A charity should keep accurate records of all income and expenditure, bank statements, invoices, receipts, grant agreements and donor details for Gift Aid. Records of trustee meetings and decisions are also useful. Good bookkeeping throughout the year makes the annual accounts, independent examination or audit far quicker and less costly, and helps demonstrate strong governance.
Can an accountant help with trustee Self Assessment?
Yes. Trustees or employees may need to complete a Self Assessment tax return if they receive certain benefits, honoraria or other taxable income. An accountant can advise on what must be reported, prepare the return accurately and submit it to HMRC by the deadline. This helps avoid penalties and ensures the individual's tax position is correct.
