sponsored prizes in events run by other charities with the aim of encouraging the intellectual |
development of young people. |

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of |
The Young Programme Limited |
I report on the accounts for the year ended 30 June 2018 set out on pages four to ten. |
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner |
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the |
terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts |
(Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The charity's trustees consider that the audit |
requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my |
responsibility to examine the accounts as required under Section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state |
whether particular matters have come to my attention. |
Basis of the independent examiner's report |
My examination was carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts |
(Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). An examination includes a review of the accounting |
records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also |
includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking |
explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do |
not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express |
an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. |
Independent examiner's statement |
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: |
(1) | which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements |
- | to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations; and |
- | to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations |
have not been met; or |
(2) | to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. |

Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 30 June 2018 |
1. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under |
FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) |
'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to |
charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard |
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015)', Financial |
Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and |
Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been |
prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of investments which are |
included at market value. |
Income |
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has |
entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can |
be measured reliably. |
Expenditure |
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation |
committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits |
will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. |
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings |
that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to |
particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use |
of resources. |
Taxation |
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. |
Fund accounting |
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion |
of the trustees. |
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the |
charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for |
particular restricted purposes. |
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the |
financial statements. |
