978-1-78482-088-6 (ISBN)
Steering a charity's finances can be one of the most challenging roles you'll face - not least because your aim is to help a charity fulfil its purposes and charity accounting rules are very different from businesses. The format of this handbook makes it a quick and clear read, so that even if you are new to charity finance you will swiftly gain confidence and knowledge. Covering charity accounting across all four nations of the UK, this sixth edition, has been comprehensively revised by new lead author Elaine Alsop. It includes:
*Current legal and accountancy practice
*Annual reporting and charity accounts including Charity SORP
*Corporation tax and VAT for charities: what applies to you, and what doesn't
*The benefits of Gift Aid, and how to get started
*Fund accounting and reserves
*Guidance for effective financial planning and management
*Introduction to risks and controls
'Serving as a trusted companion for both seasoned and new treasurers, thisbook provides a solid foundation of knowledge on the wide range ofresponsibilities and duties of a charity treasurer. ... We hope that, by offering a valuable reference tool, this handbook will inspire new volunteers to take on the office of treasurer and make a meaningful contribution to society.'

'The Charity Treasurer's Handbook is written in a very accessible manner, balancing the legal, regulatory and finance aspects with practical examples. Well-structured sections and chapters make it easy to find the help needed on specific subjects. It's a ready reference for new and experienced treasurers, with the updates in the 6th edition being particularly useful.'
