The average number required by paragraph (1)(a) or (b) is determined by dividing the relevant annual number by the number of complete calendar months in the financial year.

for the purposes of paragraph (1)(a), the number of persons employed under contracts of service by the society in that month (whether throughout the month or not);
b
for the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), the number of persons in the category in question of persons so employed;
and, in either case, adding together all the monthly numbers.

a
wages and salaries paid or payable in respect of that year to those persons;
b
social security costs incurred by the society on their behalf; and
c
other pension costs so incurred.
This does not apply in so far as those amounts, or any of them, are stated elsewhere in the society’s accounts.
5
For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b) the categories of person employed by the society are such as the directors may select, having regard to the manner in which the society’s activities are organised.
6
This paragraph applies in relation to group accounts as if the undertakings included in those accounts were a single society.

“social security costs” means any contribution by the society to any state social security or pension scheme, fund or arrangement;
b
“pension costs” includes any costs incurred by the society in respect of any pension scheme established for the purpose of providing pensions for persons currently or formerly employed by the society, any sums set aside for future payment of pensions directly by the society to current or former employees and any pensions paid directly to such persons without having been first set aside.
