Going concern

Affirmed

“The Trustees are confident that funding will continue to be forthcoming from the congregation members. Therefore, it is the opinion of the Trustees that the Church has adequate resources to continue its operational existence for the foreseeable future and the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
