1. UNAUDITED ACCOUNTS, 1998
1.1 During the period of the UK administration the management and auditing of FIG’s accounts are being undertaken by the RICS, which prepares a full set of audited accounts annually in accordance with the (UK) Companies Act. This accounting period runs from August to July. In order to avoid excessive accountancy fees and with the agreement of the Honorary Auditors, a consolidated set of FIG audited accounts will be provided for the complete period of the UK administration.
1.2 In the meantime, the FIG income and expenditure account for the calendar year 1998 is attached.
1.3 Income is invoiced and almost always received in Swiss francs; and is therefore shown in this currency in the accounts. With only one exception (see paragraph 4), expenditure is incurred and paid in sterling: it is therefore shown in that currency; and a corresponding Swiss franc equivalent is shown against each total amount.
1.4 The exception is commission grants, where the total figures represent the actual amount paid in Swiss francs and the sterling cost of that amount.
1.5 The consolidated figures (in Swiss francs) for the UK period of administration up to 31 December 1998 are as follows:
