In preparing these financial statements, the Directors have:- Selected suitable accounting policies and applied them consistently; Made judgments and estimate that are reasonable and prudent; Followed applicable accounting standards; and Prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. The Directors are responsible for ensuring that proper accounting records are kept which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the Bank.

The above statement which should be read in conjunction with the statement of the Auditors responsibilities set out on page 4 to 5 is made with a view to distinguishing for shareholders the respective responsibilities of the Directors and the Auditors in relation to these financial statements. 3

5 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF YAPRA RURAL BANK LIMITED ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 ST DECEMBER, 2015 We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Yapra Rural Bank Limited set out on pages 6 to 19. These financial statements comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 st December 2015 and the Profit and Loss Account and the Cash Flow statement for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. Directors Responsibilities for the Financial Statements The Directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Ghana National Accounting Standards and with the requirements of the Ghana Companies Code 1963 (Act 179) and the Banking Act, 2004 (Act 673) as amended by the Banking (Amendment) Act of 2007, (Act 738). This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control systems relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies: and making estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. Auditors Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an independent opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards required that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform our audit to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatements. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the bank s internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the Bank s transactions were within its powers, proper books of account have been kept and the accompanying financial statements, which are in agreement therewith, give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Bank at 31 st December 2015 and of the profit and cash flow for the year then ended in accordance with Ghana National Accounting Standards, and comply with the Ghana Companies Code, 1963 (Act 179) and the Banking Act, 2004 (Act 673) as amended by the Banking (Amendment) Act of 2007, (Act 738). 4

10 YAPRA RURAL BANK LIMITED NOTES COMPRISING SUMMARIES OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER EXPLANATORY NOTES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 ST DECEMBER ) ACCOUNTING POLICIES The significant accounting policies adopted by the Bank and which have been used in preparing these financial statements are stated below. a. Basis of Accounting These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. b. Interest Income The recognition of interest ceases when the payment of interest or principal is determined by the Bank to be in doubt. Interest is taken into income when the outstanding arrears of interest and principal are received. c. Fee Income Loan fees are credited to income over the life of the applicable loan. d. Investment Investments are included in the balance sheet at the face value less unearned discounts to maturity. Bills discounted are stated at amortised cost. The premium discount is amortised over the period to redemption and disclosed separately in interest income. e. Advances Advances are stated in the balance sheet at the amount of principal and interest outstanding less any provision for bad and doubtful debts computed in line with Bank of Ghana s guidelines. Advances are analysed between the total amount outstanding and provisions in a note to the financial statements. 9

11 f. Provision for bad and doubtful debts Provision for bad and doubtful debts are made, having regard to both specific and general risks. The specific element of the provisions relates to those loans that have been individually reviewed and specifically identified as bad or doubtful. The general element of the provision relates to those existing losses that although not yet specifically identified, are known from experience to be present at the year- end in the Bank s portfolio of loans and advances. In determining the level of the provisions required, management considered numerous factors including but not limited to domestic economic conditions and the composition of the loan portfolio. Provisions made during the year are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Loans are written off when they have been fully provided for and the probability of recovery is small. g. Fixed Assets Fixed Assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets concerned.
