Section 41(b) of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1987 states that the Treasurer may issue instructions setting out the form and content of financial statements that must be prepared by the Treasurer and public authorities.
Paragraph 19.6 of Treasurer’s Instruction 19 Financial Reporting identifies:
each Chief Executive as being responsible for the preparation of general purpose financial statements;
that the general purpose financial statements shall comply with Australian Accounting Standards and Accounting Policy Statements issued by the Treasurer; and
that the preferred form and content of the general purpose financial statements for the public sector is incorporated in the model financial statements issued by the Department of Treasury and Finance.
The Model Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements contained in Australian Accounting Standards, Accounting Policy Frameworks and Treasurer’s Instructions that are current at the time of publication.

Please note:
The ‘Department for SA Service Delivery’ model financial statements are illustrative. It is intended to be representative rather than exhaustive.
Where a not-for-profit entity’s circumstances do not include items illustrated in the model financial statements these items should not be included in the not-for-profit entity’s financial statements, for example if a not-for-profit entity does not have any finance or operating leases, then the not-for-profit entity would not include the illustrated note disclosure for finance and operating leases.
The name of the not-for-profit entity and the reporting period covered by the financial statements should appear on each page of the financial statements.
Information included in the notes to and forming part of the financial statements should contain sufficient headings, cross-references and other detail to enable the subject matter to be identified promptly.
The font size used in presenting financial statements, schedules and accompanying notes should be at least 9pt.

Materiality is to be applied to the presentation of information in each not-for-profit entity’s financial statements. A specific disclosure requirement in an Australian Accounting Standard need not be satisfied if the information is not material. However, materiality does not apply to specific disclosure requirements contained within Accounting Policy Statements.
APF II General Purpose Financial Statements Framework clause APS 2.5 requires not-for-profit entities that control other entities, subject to materiality, to prepare consolidated financial statements, showing a separate column for the parent entity in addition to the consolidated accounts, where material differences exist and the parent entity is a reporting entity or there is a reporting mandate.
AASB 112 Income Taxes is not applicable to SA Government not-for-profit entities that are required by Treasurer’s Instruction 22 Tax Equivalent Payments to calculate income tax equivalent payments using the accounting profit model.
In accordance with APF II General Purpose Financial Statements Framework clause APS 2.7 a not-for-profit entity must seek the Department of Treasury and Finance’s approval prior to adopting a new or amended accounting standard ahead of the specified commencement date due to the effect on the whole-of-government financial statements.
Reporting period
The Model Financial Statements apply to the reporting period commencing 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015.
Controlled and administered items
The financial statements must distinguish between those transactions and balances that are ‘controlled’ by the entity and those that are ‘administered’ by the entity on behalf of the Government.
Controlled transactions and balances must be recognised in the financial statements.
Administered transactions and balances that are significant in relation to the not-for-profit entity’s overall financial performance or financial position must have separate ‘administered’ financial statements and notes prepared. Administered items that are insignificant to the entity’s overall financial performance and position must be disclosed in the notes to the accounts.
Accounting Policy Framework II General Purpose Financial Statements Framework provides additional guidance in relation to the reporting of certain entities/items as administered.
Administrative restructures/machinery of government changes
Pursuant to legislation or other authority, the identity and/or structure of a government reporting entity may be dismantled or restructured by the Government. The restructuring process may result in the transfer of certain employees, activities, assets and/or the assumption of liabilities to other government reporting entities.
Accounting Policy Statements contained within Accounting Policy Framework II General Purpose Financial Statements Framework specify the financial reporting requirements for administrative restructures. In addition, the Financial Management Toolkit contains guidance and checklists which may be of assistance.

Public Finance and Audit Act 1987
Proposed amendments to the Public Finance and Audit Act 1987 are currently being considered by Parliament, but these will not have an impact on the production of general purpose financial statements.

AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting (new standard)
AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements
The new AASB 10 revises the principal/definition of control and clarifies the concept of controlling another entity ie the basis used for determining which entities should be consolidated. These new requirements have the potential to affect which of the entity’s investees are considered to be subsidiaries and therefore to change the scope of consolidation. The requirements on consolidation procedures, accounting for changes in non-controlling interests and accounting for loss of control of a subsidiary are unchanged.
AASB 10 states that an entity controls an investee (ie another entity) when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
An entity will control an investee if and only if the investor has all the following:
a. power over the investee;
b. exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
c. the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the entity’s returns.
Department for SA Service Delivery
13
Impact
The department has reviewed its control assessments (ie department’s involvement with the entity; protective rights; substantive rights; ability to direct relevant major activities) in accordance with AASB 10 and has concluded that there is no impact. Department for SA Service Delivery does not currently control (as subsidiaries or otherwise) any entities.
The department will, however, continue to reassess whether it controls another entity if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to the power over another entity; exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity; or the ability to use its power over the entity to affect the amount of the entity’s returns.
AASB 11 Joint Arrangements
The revised categories of joint arrangements under AASB 11 are more closely aligned to the actual rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangement.
A joint venture is where the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
AASB 11 requires the use of the equity method for arrangements classified as joint ventures (as for investments in associates) ie no longer permitted to use the proportionate consolidation method.
A joint operation is where the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement.
AASB 11 requires each joint operator to account for the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to their interest in the joint operation.
Impact
The department has no joint arrangements within the scope of AASB 11 and will not have an impact on Department of SA Service Delivery.
AASB 12 Disclosure of interests in other entities
AASB 12 includes all disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and structures that are not consolidations. In addition, AASB 12 introduces new disclosures about judgements made by management to determine whether control exists and to require summarised information about joint arrangements, associates and structured entity.
Impact
The Model Financial Statements have been amended to reflect any changes in disclosures as required by AASB 12.
Department for SA Service Delivery
14
AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards [AASB 1, 2, 3, 5, 7,101, 107, 112, 118, 121, 124, 132, 133, 136, 138, 139, 1023 and 1038 and Interpretations 5,9,16 and 17]
The standard makes consequential amendments to various standards as a result of the AASB’s release of AASB 10, 11 and 12
Impact
The amendments are minor in nature and will not have an impact on the Department for SA Service Delivery.
AASB 2013-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Australian Implementation Guidance for Not-for-Profit Entities – Control and Structured Entities [AASB 10, AASB 12 and AASB 1049]
This amending standard explains and illustrates various principles from AASB 10 and 12 from the perspective of not-for-profit entities.
Impact
Refer to impact statements above re AASB 10 and 12.
AASB 2012-3 Amendment to Australian Accounting Standards – Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities [AASB 132]
This amending standard provides additional guidance to AASB 132 to clarify that the right of set off must be available today and must be legally enforceable in the normal course of business as well as in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy.
Impact
This standard does not change the current offsetting rules, but clarifies that the right of set off must be available today and must be legally enforceable in the normal course of business,
Public sector not-for-profit entities would rarely enter into netting arrangements. The Department of SA Service Delivery has no such arrangements. Accordingly the amending standard will not have an impact and has not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
AASB 2013-1 Amendments to AASB 1049 – Relocation of Budgetary Reporting Requirements
This amending standard relocates the corresponding budgetary reporting requirements for the whole of government and general government sector of the Aust Govt and State and Territory Governments from AASB 1049.
Impact
The department is an agency within the general government sector and accordingly this amending standard will not apply.
Department for SA Service Delivery
15
AASB 2013-3 Amendments to AASB 136 – Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets.
This amending standard amends the disclosure requirements in AASB 136. The amendments include the requirement to disclose additional information about the fair value measurement when the recoverable amount of impaired assets is based on fair value less costs of disposal. In addition, the discount rate must be disclosed if the recoverable amount of an impaired asset was measured using a present value technique.
Impact
AASB 136 clarifies that the only difference between an asset’s fair value (as defined in AASB 13) and its fair value less costs of disposal is the direct incremental costs attributable to the disposal of the asset. This means where disposal costs are negligible, the recoverable amount of a revalued asset is close to, or greater than its revalued amount. In these circumstances, it is unlikely that the revalued asset is impaired and recoverable amount need not be estimated.
The additional disclosure required by the amending standard has been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
AASB 2013-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting [AASB 139]
This amending standard amends AASB 139 to permit the continuation of hedge accounting in circumstances where a derivative, which has been designated as a hedging instrument, is novated from one counterparty to a central counterparty as a consequence of laws or regulations.
Impact
Public sector not-for-profit entities would rarely enter into hedging instruments. The Department of SA Service Delivery has no such arrangements. Accordingly the amending standard will not have an impact and has not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
AASB 2013-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Investment Entities [AASB 1, 3, 7, 10, 12, 107, 112, 124, 127, 132, 134 and 139]
This amending standard, defines an investment entity and requires that, with limited exception, an investment entity not consolidate its subsidiaries or apply AASB 3 when it obtains control of another entity.
Impact
Public sector not-for-profit entities would rarely meet the definition of an investment entity. The Department of SA Service Delivery is not an investment entity. Accordingly the amending standard will not have an impact and has not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
Department for SA Service Delivery
16
AASB 2013-6 Amendments to AASB 136 arising from Reduced Disclosure Requirements
This standard amends the Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements for AASB 136 Impairment of Assets. That is AASB 1053’s Tier 2 reporting requirements.
Impact
In accordance with APF II, all not-for-profit entities that are consolidated into the whole of government financial statements must apply AASB 1053’s Tier 1 Australian Accounting Standards reporting requirements.
Consequently the amendments will not have an impact and have not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
AASB 2013-7 Amendments to AASB 1038 arising from AASB 10 in relation to consolidation and interests of policy holders [AASB 1038]
This standard removes the specific requirements in relation to consolidation from AASB 1038 which leaves AASB 10 as the sole source for consolidation requirements applicable to life insurer entities.
Impact
Public sector not-for-profit entities would rarely meet the definition of a life insurer entity or be a parent in a group that includes a life insurer. The Department of SA Service Delivery is not a life insurer entity. Accordingly the amending standard will not have an impact and has not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
AASB 2014 -1 Amendments to Australian Standards [annual imporvements; Defined Benefits and materiality AASB 2, 3, 8, 9, 13, 116, 119, 124, 137, 138, 139, 140, 1031, and 1052 and Intepretation129]
This amending standard has 5 parts. Part A to C are effective for the year ending 30 June 2015, while Parts D and E are effective in later years.
Part A makes various minor amendments, including editorial corrections, to Australian Accounting Standards as a result of the Annual Improvements 2010 -12 and 2011 - 13 cycles.
Part B amends AASB 119 in relation to the requirements for contributions from employees or third parties that are linked to service.
The amendments clarify that if the amount of the contribution is independent of the number of years of service, an entity is permitted to recognise such contributions as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the related service is rendered, instead of attributing the contributions to the periods of service.
In contrast, if the amount of the contribution is dependent on the number of years of service, an entity is required to attribute those contributions to periods of services using the same attribution method required by AASB 119, which has not been amended.
Part C makes amendments to various Australian Accounting Standards to delete their references to AASB 1031.
Department for SA Service Delivery
17
Impact
The amendments in Part A are minor in nature and will not have an impact on the Department for SA Service Delivery. Consequently they have not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
The amendments in Part B will not have an impact on the Department for SA Service Delivery as the liability is set by actuary assessment which takes into account consideration of contributions, as set by the triennial review. Consequently they have not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
The amendments in Part C will not have an impact on the Department for SA Service Delivery. When assessing materiality, the Department will use the requirements in AASB 101 and AASB 108, the guidance in the Framework and apply professional judgement. Consequently they have not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.
AASB 2014-2 Amendments to AASB 1053 – Transition to and between Tiers, and related Tier 2 Disclosure Requirements [AASB 1053]
This amending standard, amongst other things, clarifies that AASB 1053 only applies to general purpose financial statements; clarifies the certain circumstances in which entities resume Tier 2 reporting requirements can apply AASB 108 option; permit an entity applying Tier 2 reporting requirements for the first time to do so directly using the requirements in AASB 108 etc
Impact
In accordance with APF II, all not-for-profit entities that are consolidated into the whole of government financial statements must apply AASB 1053’s Tier 1 Australian Accounting Standards reporting requirements.
Consequently the amendments will not have an impact and have not been included in the Model Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities.

STATEMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (cont) For the year ended 30 June 20151
AASB 101 para 81A and APF II
para APS 3.2 Accounting Policy Statements require all items of income and expense to be recognised in a single Statement of Comprehensive Income. When income and expense items are material, their nature and amount are to be disclosed separately.
AASB 101 para 32 The standard provides that income and expense items are not to be offset unless permitted by a specific accounting standard. Offsetting may be permitted where it reflects the substance of the transaction or other event. Examples of income and expenses that are permitted to be offset are gains and losses on the disposal of non-current assets, and expenses related to a provision that is recognised in accordance with AASB 137 and reimbursed under a contractual arrangement with a third party.
AASB 101 para 5
AASB 101: - uses terminology that is suitable for for-profit oriented entities. The descriptions
used in the model financial statements’ Statement of Comprehensive Income have been amended from those suggested by AASB 101, e.g. profit or loss has been amended to net result;
AASB 101 para 85 - provides for additional line items, headings and subtotals when such presentation is relevant to an understanding of the entity’s financial performance. The model financial statements’ Statement of Comprehensive Income has been prepared on the net cost of services format, as required by APF II; and
AASB 101 para 87 - prohibits an entity presenting any item of income and expense as extraordinary in the Statement of Comprehensive Income or in the notes.
APF II para APS 3.2 Accounting Policy Statements contained within Accounting Policy Framework II General Purpose Financial Statements Framework require income and expense items to be disclosed in aggregate and according to their nature (rather than function within the entity) and the net gain/loss on disposal of assets to be disclosed in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
AASB Interpretation 1031 para 6
AASB 118 para 8
Income and expenses must be recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred by a purchaser is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office.
Similar to GST, the Commonwealth Government’s Paid Parental Leave Scheme involves amounts collected on behalf of third parties. These amounts are not recognised as income and expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
AASB 101 para 86, 97
Materiality
Line items are included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when the amount and nature of an item or aggregation of similar items is such that separate presentation is relevant. Notes are to be prepared for each material item in the Statement of Comprehensive Income and further details provided depending on the size, nature and function of the amounts involved.
Applying the concept of materiality means that a specific disclosure requirement in an accounting standard need not be satisfied if the information is not material (nature and amount). However, this does not apply to specific disclosure requirements contained in Accounting Policy Statements.
AASB 118 para 35(b)
Income
Income is comprised of revenue and gains.
AASB 118 Revenue requires that each significant category of revenue be disclosed including the following revenue items:
- Sale of goods; - Rendering of services; - Interest; - Royalties; and - Dividends.
Department for SA Service Delivery
22
STATEMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (cont) For the year ended 30 June 20151
AASB 1004 Contributions requires asset contributions, forgiveness of liabilities, appropriations, liabilities assumed, goods and services received free of charge to be disclosed.
Note: the line item ‘other revenue’ should not exceed 10% of the total value of revenues.
Gains are displayed separately to revenue in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Generally gains are reported net of related expenses e.g. gain on sale of property, plant and equipment; gain on contributed assets; gain on investment. The line item ‘other income’ will be used where a specific standard prohibits the item being classified as revenue (eg AASB 138, paragraph 113 de-recognition of an intangible asset), the amount is immaterial and does not warrant an additional descriptive line item in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
AASB 101 para 100
Expenses
AASB 101 encourages entities to disclose expenses aggregated in the Statement of Comprehensive Income with further detail in the notes. Accounting standards require borrowing costs to be disclosed separately.
It is considered best practice that income and expenses disclosed in the Statement of Comprehensive Income are reconciled to the detailed categorisations of income and expenses contained in the notes unless these disclosures are presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
‘Payments to government’ may include the return of surplus cash pursuant to the cash alignment policy, income tax equivalent payments, or other payments made directly to the Consolidated Account. Note: the line item ‘other expenses’ should not exceed 10% of the total value of expenses.
Other information
The reference column in the Statement of Comprehensive Income is for information only and should not be replicated in not-for-profit entities’ financial statements.
Paragraph 19.7 of Treasurer’s Instruction 19 Financial Reporting provides that in the event of any inconsistency between an accounting policy statement issued by the Treasurer pursuant to that instruction and an Australian accounting standard, the requirements of the accounting policy statement will prevail.

STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION (cont.) As at 30 June 20151
AASB 101 para 60 AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements requires all assets and liabilities to be separately classified either as current or non-current unless a presentation based on liquidity is more relevant. A twelve-month period or a clearly identifiable operating cycle can be used as the basis for differentiating between current and non-current.
AASB 101 para 68,70 The term ‘non-current’ usually includes items of a long-term nature. Current assets/liabilities include assets/liabilities that are part of the normal operating cycle even when they are not expected to be realised / settled within twelve months after the reporting date, eg inventories, receivables, payables and operating accruals.
When asset and liability items are material, their nature and amount are to be disclosed. The notes accompanying the financial statements will disclose the amounts expected to be recovered or settled up to and including 12 months and more than 12 months after the reporting date for each asset and liability line item.
UIG Interpretation 1031
para 6 -9
Items must be recognised net of the amount of GST, except as follows:
- the amount of GST incurred by a purchaser that is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office must be recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset; and
- receivables and payables must be stated with the amount of GST included.
GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office must be included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Note: Prepayments are GST exclusive (as the agency already holds the tax invoice and has or will claim the ITC). Expense accruals are GST inclusive (ie it is the amount that will be paid).
AASB 101 para 32 Assets and liabilities are not to be offset unless permitted by a specific accounting standard. Offsetting may be permitted where it reflects the substance of the transaction or other event. AASB 132 para 46 permits a financial asset and a financial liability to be offset and the net amount presented in the Statement of Financial position when an entity has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and intends to settle on this basis.
AASB 101 para 57, 58,77,78 Materiality
Line items are included in the Statement of Financial Position when the size, nature or function of an item or aggregation of similar items is such that separate presentation is relevant.
Notes are to be prepared for each material item in the Statement of Financial Position and further details provided depending on the size, nature and function of the amounts involved.
Applying the concept of materiality means that a specific disclosure requirement in an accounting standard need not be satisfied if the information is not material (nature and amount). However, this does not apply to specific disclosure requirements contained in Accounting Policy Statements.
AASB 101 para 54 Assets and Liabilities
AASB 101 requires the following items to be disclosed in the Statement of Financial Position:
- Cash and cash equivalents; - Inventories; - Trade and other receivables; - Assets classified as held for sale and associated liabilities; - Biological assets; - Property, plant and equipment; - Investment property; - Intangible assets; - Financial assets; - Investments accounted for using the equity method;
Department for SA Service Delivery
26
STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION (cont.) As at 30 June 20151
- Trade and other payables; - Provisions; - Financial liabilities; - Current tax assets and liabilities; - Deferred tax assets and liabilities; - Issued capital and reserves attributable to owners of the parent; and - Non-controlling interest, presented within equity.
When a line item for ‘other’ assets/liabilities is used, this line item should not exceed 10% of the value of total assets/liabilities.
AASB 7 para 8 Categories of financial assets and financial liabilities
AASB 7 requires that an entity disclose the carrying amounts of each category of financial instruments either in the Statement of Financial Position or in the accompanying notes. For the purposes of illustrating the preferred reporting format for South Australian Government not-for-profit entities, the carrying amounts for each category of financial instruments are disclosed in note 41.
AASB 101 para 61-62 Employee benefits
As per AASB 101, a provision is classified as a current liability if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
This means, for example, where employees are entitled to take their annual leave after the reporting period, the provision for annual leave must be recorded as a current liability even if the employees are not expected to take leave within the twelve month period. Annual leave is a short- term benefit and will be measured at a nominal basis.
Vested long service leave will be classified as a current liability where the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the leave liability. Unvested long service leave will be classified as non-current liability as the entity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the leave liability.
All long service leave whether current or non-current, is a long-term benefit and is required to be accounted for under the projected unit credit method in accordance with AASB 119.
Equity
The creation of reserves other than the asset revaluation surplus will be rare and specific to each not -for-profit entity. For each reserve, entities are required to provide a description of the nature and purpose of the reserve in the notes and movement disclosure in the Statement of Changes in Equity.
AASB 101 para 10(f) Comparative
AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements requires an agency present, as a minimum, three statements of financial position, two of each other statement and related notes, where an entity applies an accounting policy retrospectively or makes a retrospective restatement of items or when it reclassifies items in its financial statements.
Note: The requirements specified in AASB 108 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors apply where information resulting from their application is material.
Other information
The reference column in the Statement of Financial Position is for information only and should not be replicated in entities’ financial statements.
Paragraph 19.7 of Treasurer’s Instruction 19 Financial Reporting provides that in the event of any inconsistency between an accounting policy statement issued by the Treasurer pursuant to that instruction and an Australian accounting standard, the requirements of the accounting policy statement will prevail.

STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN EQUITY (cont.) For the year ended 30 June 20151
AASB 101 para 106-110
In accordance with AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements an entity is required to disclose in the Statement of Changes in Equity:
- Total comprehensive result for the period, showing separately total amounts attributable to owners and non-controlling interests;
- For each component of equity, the effects of retrospective application or retrospective restatements recognised;
- The amounts of transactions with owners in their capacity as owners, showing separately contributions by and distributions to owners; and
- For each component of equity, reconciliation between the carrying amount at the beginning and the end of the period, separately disclosing each change.
The APF II APS 3.8 requires analysis of other comprehensive income by item and transactions with the State Government as owner, including dividends to be presented in the Statement of Changes in Equity rather than the notes.
In accordance with the revised AASB 1004 Contributions restructure of administrative arrangements are in the nature of transactions with owners in their capacity as owners and accordingly are presented in the Statement of Changes in Equity rather than recognised as a net revenue or expense through profit and loss.
The reference column in the Statement of Changes in Equity is for information only and should not be replicated in not-for-profit entities’ financial statements.
Separate line items shown in the Statement of Changes in Equity need not be included unless they are material and relevant to the circumstances of the entity.

32
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS (cont.) For the year ended 30 June 20151
AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows requires a Statement of Cash Flows to report cash flows during the period. Cash flows will be classified as operating, investing or financing activities.
AASB 107 allows cash flows arising from operating activities to be reported in the statement using either the direct or indirect method. APF II mandates the use of the direct method, whereby major classes of gross cash receipts and cash payments are disclosed.
The Statement of Cash Flows has been prepared on the net cost of services format consistent with the requirement outlined in APF II and as permitted by AASB 107, ‘Aus’ paragraph 20.2.
The following cash flows must be separately disclosed and classified in a consistent manner from period to period as either operating, investing or financing activities:
- interest received, dividends received and interest paid (classified as operating flows); and - dividends paid (classified as financing flows).
It is unlikely that not-for-profit entities will pay a dividend to the Treasurer as dividends are payments from profit and not-for-profit entities generally do not make a profit but rather receive appropriation or earn income to cover the cost of providing services.
Cash flows are to be included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis, subject to AASB Interpretation 1031, paragraphs 6 to 11 and AASB 107.
When accounting for the GST cash flows, disclosure of ‘one annual net GST amount’ for the year’ is preferred, ie a separate line for GST recovered or paid to the Australian Taxation Office. The GST arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office must be classified as operating cash flows. See guidance below.
At the UIG meeting in September 2000, UIG members noted that although GST amounts are not required to be disclosed in cash flow statements, an entity could choose to make specific GST disclosures in the statement itself or in notes to the statement.
When accounting for the Commonwealth Government’s Paid Parental Leave Scheme, agencies are acting as a conduit through which the payment to eligible employees are made on behalf of the Family Assistance Office – consistent with the treatment of GST, the 2 line method is preferred.
The line item for ‘other’ receipts/payments should not exceed 10% of the total value of receipts/payments.
Materiality
Each material class of similar items shall be presented separately in the statement. If a line item is not individually material, it is aggregated with other items in the statement or in the notes. An item that is not sufficiently material to warrant separate presentation in the Statement of Cash Flows may be sufficiently material for it to be presented separately in the notes.
Notes are to be prepared for each material item in the Statement of Cash Flows. Applying the concept of materiality means that a specific disclosure requirement in an accounting standard need not be satisfied if the information is not material. However, this does not apply to specific disclosure requirements contained in accounting policy statements.
The reference column in the Statement of Cash Flows is for information only and should not be replicated in not-for-profit entities’ financial statements. Separate line items shown in the statement need not be included unless they are material and relevant to the circumstances of the entity.
Non-cash transactions
AASB 107 paragraph 43 requires investing and financing activities that do not require the use of cash to be disclosed in a way that provides all the relevant information about these activities.
Other disclosures
AASB 107 paragraphs 48 and 50 require an entity to disclose, together with commentary by management, the amounts of cash and cash equivalent balances held by the entity that are not available for use by the entity. This disclosure is applicable to the Department for SA Service Delivery and has been illustrated at Note 19 Cash and cash equivalents.
Department for SA Service Delivery

STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS (cont.) For the year ended 30 June 20151
Guidance re Cash Flows relating to GST
Main points: cash flows are GST inclusive; and one net amount to be disclosed for GST paid or received from ATO.
Operating cash flows are required to be recognised on a gross basis, that is, inclusive of the amount of GST (refer APF II, AASB 107 and UIG 1031). The direct method is to be used and information about major classes of gross receipts and gross payments are disclosed ie the GST recovered/paid to the ATO is a major class of gross cash receipt (refer to APF II and AASB 107).
Treasury’s preferred position is for ‘one net GST amount for the year’ to be reported in the Statement of Cash Flows as illustrated above.
Example: During the year Agency A:
paid $200,000 to employees. $170,000 was recorded as employee benefits expense (and disclosed in the Statement of Comprehensive Income) and the Employee benefits liability was reduced by $30,000 (relating to additional payments made to employees). Payments for employees’ salaries and wages and payments for seconded employees do not include GST.
paid $330,000 to various suppliers for taxable supplies and services. $300,000 was recorded as goods and services expenses (and disclosed in the Statement of Comprehensive Income) and $30,000 was recorded in the GST control account (and the input tax credits were recovered from the ATO via the BAS)
paid $105,000 to grant recipients. $100,000 was recorded as a grant expense (and disclosed in the Statement of Comprehensive Income) and $5,000 was recorded in the GST control account (and the input tax credits were recovered from the ATO via the BAS). Note: in this example all grants, except one, did not include GST. A single taxable grant of $55,000 GST inclusive was paid.
received $20,000 from regulated fees and charges. $20,000 was recorded as revenues from fees and charges (and disclosed in the Statement of Comprehensive Income). Income from regulated fees and charges met division 81 requirements, and did not include GST.

NOTES TO &
FORMING PART OF
THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 39
Commentary - Contents
Reference Contents page
A contents page/note index will assist users of the financial report.
Presentation of notes
AASB 101 para 113 & 114
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements must be presented in a systematic manner. Each item in the financial statements is to be cross-referenced to any directly related information in the notes.
Notes are normally presented in the following order:
statement of compliance with Australian accounting standards;
summary of significant accounting policies applied;
supporting information for items presented in the statements in the order of which each statement and each line item is presented; and
other disclosures including contingent assets and liabilities and unrecognised contractual commitments and non-financial disclosures.
Content of notes
AASB 101 para 112 The notes must:
present information about the basis of preparation of the financial statements and specific accounting policies used.
disclose information required by Australian accounting standards, where material, that is not presented elsewhere in the statements.
provide information that is not presented elsewhere in the financial statements but is relevant to an understanding of them.
Basis of preparation /Statement of compliance
AASB 1054 para 7,8,9 AASB 101 para Aus16.2, 114(a), Aus 16.3
The notes will outline:
a statement of compliance with Australian accounting standards and other relevant statutory requirements;
statutory basis or other reporting framework; and
whether the entity is a not-for-profit entity or a for-profit entity and whether that entity’s financial statements are general purpose financial statements or if applicable special purpose financial statements.
Summary of significant accounting policies
AASB 101 para 117, 122 and 125
The summary must disclose all of the significant accounting policies that have been applied in the preparation and presentation of the financial statements (for example, policy adopted where alternatives are allowed in standards) and the measurement bases used in preparing the financial statements (for example, historical cost, fair value or net realisable value).
An entity will also disclose:
judgements (apart from estimations) management has made in applying an entity’s accounting policies (for example, whether the substance of a relationship is controlled or administered) and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
assumptions made about the future and estimations that have a significant risk of resulting in material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period (for example, estimating recoverable amount, effect of technological obsolescence on plant and equipment and discount rates).
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 40
Where there is no accounting standard or policy covering a particular item, the disclosure should focus on explaining why the policy applied ensures that relevant and reliable information is presented.
AASB 108 para 28, 29
Where there is a change in accounting policy arising from the initial application of an Australian accounting standard or a voluntary change in accounting policy, the following information must be disclosed:
the title of the standard (if applicable);
the nature of the change and the reasons for the change;
details of transitional provisions (if applicable); and
the financial effect (for each financial statement line item affected).
AASB 108 para 30, 31
When an entity has not applied an accounting standard that has been issued but is not yet effective, the entity shall disclose this fact; and known or reasonably estimable information relevant to assessing the possible impact and application the standard will have on the entity’s financial statements in the period of initial application. An entity must consider disclosing:
the title of the standard;
the nature of the impending change or changes in accounting policy;
the date by which application of the standard is required; and
the date as at which it plans to apply the standard and either a discussion of the impact that initial application of the standard is expected to have on the entity’s financial statement or if that impact is not known or reasonably estimable, a statement to that effect.
Note: Accounting Policy Framework II General Purpose Financial Statements para APS 2.7 requires entities to seek the Department of Treasury and Finance’s approval prior to adopting a new or amended accounting standard ahead of the specified commencement date. Not all accounting standards are available for early adoption.
Consistent accounting treatment must be employed in the preparation and presentation of consolidated financial statements.
General purpose financial statements
AASB 101 para 10, 38, 45
APF II para APS 2.2, 2.6
Accounting Policy Framework II General Purpose Financial Statements paragraph:
APS 2.6 requires entities that are consolidated into the whole of government financial statements to apply Tier 1 Australian Accounting Standards reporting requirements when preparing general purpose financial statements; and
APS 2.2 requires general purpose financial statements to include a Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, a Statement of Changes in Equity, a Statement of Cash Flows, explanatory notes; and financial schedules and explanatory notes for administered items.
Classification and presentation of items in the financial statement is to be retained from one period to the next unless an accounting policy framework or Australian accounting standard requires a change or it is apparent, following a significant change in the nature of the entity, that another classification or presentation is more appropriate.
Except where a specific accounting standard permits, comparative information should be disclosed for previous periods.
The economic substance of transactions should be reflected in the financial statements.
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 41
Administered items
AASB 1050 para 7 APF II para APS 3.11
The financial statements must distinguish between those transactions and balances controlled and those administered by the entity on behalf of the Government. An entity with administered items that are significant in relation to the entity’s overall performance or financial position will prepare a Statement of Administered Comprehensive Income; Statement of Administered Financial Position, Statement of Administered Changes in Equity, Statement of Administered Cash Flows and activity schedules. An entity with administered items that are insignificant will disclose these transactions in the notes accompanying the administered statements.
Disclosures
AASB 101 para 114d,137,138
Specific note disclosure requirements are contained in Accounting Policy Statements contained within:
Part 4 and 5 of APF II General Purpose Financial Statements Framework;
Part 14 of APF III Asset Accounting Framework;
Part 4 of APF IV Financial Asset and Liability Framework; and
Parts 4 of APF V Income Framework.
The following items will also be disclosed in the general purpose financial statements:
Capital and expenditure commitments contracted for as at reporting date;
Contingent assets and liabilities;
The amount of dividends proposed or declared (if declared after the reporting period but before financial statements are authorised for issue, the dividends are disclosed as a note to the accounts);
Description of the nature and principal activities of the entity; and
Amounts paid or payable to the auditor for the audit/review of the financial report and non-audit services.
Where a not-for-profit entity manufactures goods (this would be rare in the SA public service), the entity will need to ensure the disclosure requirements relating to cost of goods sold are met.
The model provides an alternative presentation in relation to the changes in accounting policy – one which provides disclosure about the adoption of standards and interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not effective, where an agency can provide sufficient audit evidence to substantiate that there are no impacts and an alternative (shown on pages 120-124) which provides the specific disclosures about the adoption of these standards and interpretations. The Auditor-General’s Department has advised that where an agency can provide sufficient audit evidence to substantiate there are no impacts, the disclosure illustrated in Note 3 would be assessed as appropriated by Audit.

Reference Note 1 Objectives of the Department for SA Service Delivery
AASB 101 para 138(b) AASB 1052 para 15(a),(b)
The Department for SA Service Delivery serves the Government and the people of South Australia by achieving excellence in the provision of financial management services to the State Government.
The department aims to increase awareness, development and application of accounting standards and good financial management practices in the South Australian public sector by providing research, guidance and support to government agency personnel.
The department is structured to contribute to three outcomes for which the portfolio is responsible:
1. To ensure South Australia is contributing to the development of public sector accounting standards and practices by having decision makers informed of developments in standards and their implication
2. To facilitate improvement in financial management practices across the government
3. To ensure integration of policies and practices with developments in systems, legislation and financial reporting.

b) Basis of preparation
The preparation of the financial statements requires:
• the use of certain accounting estimates and requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the department’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are outlined in the applicable notes
• accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events are reported
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 44
AASB 101 para 17(c) compliance with Accounting Policy Statements issued pursuant to section 41 of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1987.

The Statement of Cash Flows has been prepared on a cash basis.
AASB 101 para 51(c) (d)
The financial statements have been prepared based on a 12 month period and presented in Australian currency.
AASB 101 para 51(c), 112(a)

AASB 101 para 51(b)
AASB 101 para 138(a) & (c)
c) Reporting entity
The department is a government department of the State of South Australia, established pursuant to the Public Sector Act 2009. The department is an administrative unit acting on behalf of the Crown.
AASB 1050 para 7 AASB 10
The financial statements and accompanying notes include all the controlled activities of the Department of SA Service Delivery (refer to the disaggregated schedule for details of the department’s controlled activities).
The department does not control any other entity and has no interests in unconsolidated structured entities. In forming this view, the department considered its involvement with [name of entity] and determined that it does not control [name of entity].
In making this assessment, the department considered its power over the entity, its exposure or rights (eg protective and substantive rights) to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and the ability to use its power to affect return amounts (eg ability to direct relevant major activities).
The department has not entered into any contractual arrangements which involve the sharing of control or significant influence over another entity.
Transactions and balances relating to administered resources are not recognised as departmental income, expenses, assets and liabilities. As administered items are significant (insignificant) in relation to the department’s overall financial performance and position, they are disclosed in the
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 45
administered financial statements (schedule of administered items) at the back of the controlled general purpose financial statements. Except as otherwise disclosed, administered items are accounted for on the same basis and using the same accounting policies as for departmental items.
AASB 12 para 7 The model financial statements do not illustrate the consolidation of controlled
entities – where this occurs the following wording may be appropriate:
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by combining the financial statements of all entities that comprise the consolidated entity being the Department of SA Service Delivery and [government controlled Funds/Commissions/Councils/Schools etc] , in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements. A list of controlled entities is at Note [ ].
In forming the view that [Funds/Councils] are controlled, the department considered its involved with the entity and determined that its substantive rights give the department the current ability to direct the major relevant activities of the entity and the department is exposed or has rights to variable returns from its involvement as the entity contributes to the furtherance of the department’s objective.
In forming the view that [Commissioners] are controlled, it was noted that the Minister appoints the council’s members and approves the major decisions affecting the Commission’s activities and the Minister has the power to direct the major relevant activities of the Commission.
Consistent accounting policies have been applied and all inter-entity balances and transactions arising within the consolidated entity have been eliminated in full.
APF II para APS 5.7 AASB 1004 para 57 d) Transferred functions
The Public Sector (Reorganisation of Public Sector Operations) Notice 2014 (dated 1 December 2014) declared that:
the Legislative Framework and Project Division was transferred from the Fiscal Policy Department to the Department for SA Service Delivery, effective from 1 January 2015 (refer note 36)

AASB 101 para 10(f) 38,38A, 38C, 38D, 40A, 41, 45,46
e) Budgeted amounts
Budget information refers to the amounts presented to Parliament in the original budgeted financial statements in respect of the reporting period (2014-15 Budget Paper 4). These original budgeted amounts have been presented and classified on a basis that is consistent with line items in the financial statements. However, these amounts have not been adjusted to reflect revised budgets or administrative restructures/machinery of government changes. The budget process is not subject to audit’
f) Comparative information
The presentation and classification of items in the financial statements are consistent with prior periods except where specific accounting standards and/or accounting policy statements have required a change.
Where presentation or classification of items in the financial statements have been amended, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation or classification in these financial statements unless impracticable.
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 46
Where the department has applied an accounting policy retrospectively; retrospectively restated items in the financial statements; reclassified items in the financial statements, it has provided three Statements of Financial Position and related notes.
The restated comparative amounts do not replace the original financial statements for the preceding period.
AASB 101 para 51(e) g) Rounding
All amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes have been rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($’000).
AASB 1048 Interpretation 1031 para 7 - 10
h) Taxation
The department is not subject to income tax. The department is liable for payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, goods and services tax (GST), emergency services levy, land tax equivalents and local government rate equivalents.
Income, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods or services is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item applicable
receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office is classified as part of operating cash flows
AASB 101 para 112, AASB 110 para 8 & 10
i) Events after the reporting period
Adjustments are made to amounts recognised in the financial statements, where an event occurs after 30 June and before the date the financial statements are authorised for issue, where those events provide information about conditions that existed at 30 June.
Note disclosure is made about events between 30 June and the date the financial statements are authorised for issue where the events relate to a condition which arose after 30 June and which may have a material impact on the results of subsequent years.
AASB 101 para 119, 122
ASB 101 para 32
j) Income
Income is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the flow of economic benefits to the department will occur and can be reliably measured.
Income has been aggregated according to its nature and has not been offset unless required or permitted by a specific accounting standard or where offsetting reflects the substance of the transaction or other event.
The following are specific recognition criteria:
Fees and charges
Revenues from fees and charges are derived from the provision of goods and services to other SA government agencies and to the public. This revenue is recognised upon delivery of the service to the clients or by reference to the stage of completion.
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 47
APF V para APS 4.1 Contributions received
Contributions are recognised as an asset and income when the department obtains control of the contributions or obtains the right to receive the contributions and the income recognition criteria are met (ie the amount can be reliably measured and the flow of resources is probable).
Generally, the department has obtained control or the right to receive for:
Contributions with unconditional stipulations - this will be when the agreement becomes enforceable ie the earlier of when the receiving entity has formally been advised that the contribution (eg grant application) has been approved; agreement/contract is executed; and/or the contribution is received.
Contributions with conditional stipulations - this will be when the enforceable stipulations specified in the agreement occur or are satisfied; that is income would be recognised for contributions received or receivable under the agreement.
All contributions received by the department have been contributions with unconditional stipulations attached and have been recognised as an asset and income upon receipt.
AASB 101 para 122 APF II APS 5.6, APF III para APS 2.12 AASB 1004 para 12,44 AASB 116 para Aus 15.1
Resources received free of charge
Resources received free of charge are recorded as revenue in the Statement of Comprehensive Income at their fair value. Contributions of services are recognised only when a fair value can be determined reliably and the services would be purchased if they had not been donated.
TI 3 Revenues from SA Government
Appropriations for program funding are recognised as revenues when the department obtains control over the funding. Control over appropriations is normally obtained upon receipt.
Where money has been appropriated in the form of a loan, the department has recorded a loan receivable.
Where money has been appropriated in the form of an equity contribution, the Treasurer has acquired a financial interest in the net assets of the department and the appropriation is recorded as contributed equity.
AASB 116 para 68, 71 APF III para APS 3.19
Gain from disposal of non-current assets
Income from the disposal of non-current assets is recognised when the control of the asset has passed to the buyer and has been determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. When revalued assets are sold, the revaluation surplus is transferred to retained earnings.
Gains/Losses on disposal of [agency specific examples] are recognised at the date control of the asset is passed to the buyer and are determined after deducting the cost of the asset from the proceeds at that time.
Other income
Other income consists of donations, forgiveness of liabilities, de-recognition of intangible assets and [agency specific examples].

APF II para APS 3.2,
k) Expenses
Expenses are recognised to the extent that it is probable that the flow of economic benefits from the department will occur and can be reliably measured.
Expenses have been aggregated according to their nature and have not been offset unless required or permitted by a specific accounting standard, or where offsetting reflects the substance of the transaction or other event.
The following are specific recognition criteria:
AASB 119
Employee benefits expenses
Employee benefits expenses include all costs related to employment including wages and salaries, non-monetary benefits and leave entitlements. These are recognised when incurred.
Superannuation
The amount charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income represents the contributions made by the department to the superannuation plan in respect of current services of current departmental staff. The Department of Treasury and Finance centrally recognises the superannuation liability in the whole-of-government financial statements.
AASB 101 para 122 Depreciation and amortisation
All non-current assets, having a limited useful life, are systematically depreciated/amortised over their useful lives in a manner that reflects the consumption of their service potential. Amortisation is used in relation to intangible assets such as software, while depreciation is applied to tangible assets such as property, plant and equipment.
AASB 116 para 51 Assets’ residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate, on an annual basis.
Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for prospectively by changing the time period or method, as appropriate, which is a change in accounting estimate.
AASB 116 para 50, 73(b)
The value of leasehold improvements is amortised over the estimated useful life of each improvement, or the unexpired period of the relevant lease, whichever is shorter.

Borrowing costs
All borrowing costs are recognised as expenses.
Payments to SA Government
Payments to the SA Government include the return of surplus cash pursuant to the cash alignment policy, taxation revenues and expiation fees received on behalf of the government and paid directly to the Consolidated Account.
AASB 101 para 60, 62, 119 & 120
l) Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are characterised as either current or non-current in nature. Assets and liabilities that are to be sold, consumed or realised as part of the normal operating cycle even when they are not expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting date have been classified as current assets or current liabilities. All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current.
Where asset and liability line items combine amounts expected to be realised within 12 months and more than 12 months, the department has separately disclosed the amounts expected to be recovered or settled after more than 12 months.
AASB 101 para 32, 119 & 120

m) Assets
Assets have been classified according to their nature and have not been offset unless required or permitted by a specific accounting standard, or where offsetting reflects the substance of the transaction or other event.
Where an asset line item combines amounts expected to be settled within 12 months and more than 12 months, the department has separately disclosed the amounts expected to be recovered after more than 12 months.

AASB 101 para 119 Cash and cash equivalents
AASB 107 para 6 & 46
Cash and cash equivalents in the Statement of Financial Position include cash at bank and on hand and in other short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less that are readily converted to cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of [agency specific examples].
Cash is measured at nominal value.
AASB 101 para 78(b), 119
Receivables
Receivables include amounts receivable from goods and services, GST input tax credits recoverable, prepayments and other accruals.
AASB 7 para 21 Receivables arise in the normal course of selling goods and services to other government agencies and to the public. Receivables are generally settled within 30 days after the issue of an invoice or the goods/services have been provided under a contractual arrangement.
AASB 139 para 43, 46 & 63
Collectability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. An allowance for doubtful debts is raised when there is objective evidence that the department will not be able to collect the debt. Bad debts are written off when identified.
APF IV para APS 2.1 & APS 6.3, APS 6.6
Other financial assets
The department measures financial assets and debt at historical cost, except for derivatives (measured at market value) and interest free loans (measured at the present value of expected repayments). All interest free loans are recorded at the present value of expected repayment, being expected future cash payments discounted using the prevailing market rate of interest for similar instrument. At 30 June there was not a prevailing interest rate; accordingly the market yield on long-term Commonwealth bonds was used at the time of the loan plus a risk margin of 2.5%.

Inventories
AASB 102 para Aus 9.1
AASB 102 para 9,Aus 9.1, Aus 10.1 & 36(a)
Inventories include goods and other property held either for sale or distribution at no or nominal cost in the ordinary course of business. It includes land held for sale and excludes depreciable assets.
Inventories held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured at cost and adjusted when applicable for any loss of service potential. Inventories held for sale are measured at the lower of cost or their net realisable value.
AASB 102 para 9, Aus 9.2 & Aus 10.1 & 36(a)
Bases used in assessing loss of service potential for inventory held for distribution at no or minimal cost include current replacement cost and technological or functional obsolescence.
Cost is assigned to land held for sale and to other high value, low volume inventory items on a specific identification of cost basis.
AASB 101 para 122 Cost for all other inventory is measured on the basis of the first-in, first-out method. Net realisable value is determined using the estimated sales proceeds less costs incurred in marketing, selling and distribution to customers.
The amount of any inventory write-down to net realisable value or inventory losses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurred. Any write-down reversals are also recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

AASB 5 para 6,15 & 38,
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale and stated at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset’s sale is expected to be completed one year from the date of classification.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately from the other assets in the Statement of Financial Position. The liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale are also presented separately from other liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position.
AASB 116 para 73(a), APF II & III
Non-current assets
Acquisition and recognition
Non-current assets are initially recorded at cost or at the value of any liabilities assumed, plus any incidental cost involved with the acquisition. Non-current assets are subsequently measured at fair value after allowing for accumulated depreciation.
APF III para APS 2.12, APS 3.1 AASB 116 para Aus 15.1
Where assets are acquired at no value, or minimal value, they are recorded at fair value in the Statement of Financial Position.
However, if the assets are acquired at no or nominal value as part of a restructure of administrative arrangements then the assets are recognised at book value ie the amount recorded by the transferor public authority immediately prior to the restructure.
AASB 101 para 122, APF III para APS 2.15 & APS 7.2
All non-current tangible assets with a value equal to or in excess of $5 000 are capitalised.
Note: APF III paragraph APS 2.15 states that non-current assets with a fair value at the time of acquisition of less than $10 000 need not be recognised, however, para APS 2.16 allows agencies to elect to adopt a lower capitalisation threshold. Due to materiality, the Department of SA Service Delivery has a capitalisation threshold of $5 000.
Componentisation of complex assets is only performed when the complex asset’s fair value at the time of acquisition is equal to or in excess of $5 million for infrastructure assets and $1 million for other assets.
AASB 1051 para 8,11, 15 APF III para APS 9.6
Land under roads
Land under roads which were acquired before 1 July 2008 is not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position. Land under roads acquired on or after 1 July 2008 is recognised when the asset recognition criteria are met. Land under roads includes land under roadways, road reserves, footpaths, nature strips and median strips.

AASB 101 para 119
APF III para APS 3.1, APS 3.13
Revaluation of non-current assets
All non-current tangible assets are valued at fair value and revaluation of non-current assets or group of assets is only performed when its fair value at the time of acquisition is greater than $1 million and estimated useful life is greater than three years.
AASB 13 para 93(g)
AASB 101 para 122
Every three years, the Department for SA Service Delivery revalues its land, buildings, investment properties, leasehold improvements, heritage assets and plant and equipment via (an independent/non-independent) Certified Practising Valuer or internal estimates based on indices or recent transactions. A valuation appraisal by a Certified Practising Valuer is performed at least every six years.
If at any time management considers that the carrying amount of an asset materially differs from its fair value, then the asset will be revalued regardless of when the last valuation took place.
Non-current tangible assets that are acquired between revaluations are held at cost until the next valuation, where they are revalued to fair value.
AASB 116 para Aus39.1, Aus 40.1
Any revaluation increment is credited to the revaluation surplus, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset class previously recognised as an expense, in which case the increase is recognised as income. Any revaluation decrease is recognised as an expense, except to the extent that it offsets a previous revaluation increase for the same asset class, in which case the decrease is debited directly to the revaluation surplus to the extent of the credit balance existing in revaluations surplus for that asset class.
AASB 116 para 35(b), 41, APF III para APS 3.19, APS 3.20
Any accumulated depreciation as at the revaluation date is eliminated against the gross carrying amounts of the assets and the net amounts are restated to the revalued amounts of the asset.
Upon disposal or derecognition, any revaluation surplus relating to that asset is transferred to retained earnings.
AASB 136 para 6, 9 & 59
Impairment
All non-current tangible and intangible assets are tested for indication of impairment at each reporting date. Where there is an indication of impairment, the recoverable amount is estimated. The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and depreciated replacement cost. An amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount is recorded as an impairment loss.
For revalued assets, an impairment loss is offset against the respective revaluation surplus.
AASB 101 para 119
APF III para APS 12.6
Intangible assets
An intangible asset is an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance. Intangible assets are measured at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. The department only has intangible assets with finite lives. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for intangible assets is reviewed on an annual basis.
APF III para APS 12.7
The acquisition of or internal development of software is capitalised only when the expenditure meets the definition criteria (identifiability, control and the existence of future economic benefits) and recognition criteria (probability of future economic benefits and cost can be reliably measured) and when the amount of expenditure is greater than or equal to $10 000.
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 53
All research and development costs that do not meet the capitalisation criteria outlined in AASB 138 are expensed.
Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets has not been capitalised. This is because the department has been unable to attribute this expenditure to the intangible asset rather than to the department as a whole.
AASB 140 para 20, 30, 32A and 33 75(a). AASB 136 para 2(f) APF III APS 3.1
Investment property
Investment properties represent: properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation and property that is being constructed/developed for future use as investment property. Investment properties are initially recognised at cost. Costs incurred subsequent to initial acquisition are capitalised when it is probable that future economic benefits in excess of the originally assessed performance of the asset will flow to the department.
Subsequent to initial recognition at cost, investment properties are revalued to fair value with changes in the fair value recognised as income or expense in the period that they arise. The properties are not depreciated and are not tested for impairment.
Rental income from the leasing of investment properties is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as part of other income, on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
AASB 13 para 27, 70, 72
Fair value measurement
AASB 13 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, in the principal or most advantageous market, at the measurement date.
The department classifies fair value measurement using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements, based on the data and assumptions used in the most recent revaluation:
Level 1 – traded in active markets and is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at measurement date.
Level 2 – not traded in an active market and are derived from inputs (inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1) that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – not traded in an active market and are derived from unobservable inputs.
The valuation processes and fair value changes are reviewed by the Chief Finance Officer and Audit Committee at each reporting date.
Non-financial assets
In determining fair value, the department has taken into account the characteristic of the asset (eg condition and location of the asset and any restrictions on the sale or use of the asset) and the asset’s highest and best use (that is physically possible, legally permissible, financially feasible).
The department’s current use is the highest and best use of the asset unless other factors suggest an alternative use is feasible within the next five years. As the department did not identify any factors to suggest an alternative use, fair value measurement was based on current use.

Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 54
AASB 13 para 93(g)
AASB 13 para 93(d),(g),(i). APF III clause APS 3.3 - 3.7
The carrying amount of non-financial assets with a fair value at the time of acquisition that was less than $1 million or an estimated useful life that was less than three years are deemed to approximate fair value.
Refer notes 24, 26, and 27 for disclosure regarding fair value measurement techniques and inputs used to develop fair value measurements for non-financial assets.
Financial assets/liabilities
Department of SA Service Delivery does not recognise any financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value.
Notes: Where not-for-profit entities are exempt from the requirements of APF IV Financial Asset and Liability Framework, paragraph APS 6.1, the following note disclosure is provided.
The fair value of assets or liabilities traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities at balance date. The fair value of other financial assets or liabilities is determined using valuation techniques. These techniques maximises the use of observable market data where it is available. The Department uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance date.
Refer note 27 and 41 for disclosure regarding fair value measurement techniques and inputs used to develop fair value measurement for financial assets.
AASB 101 para 32, 119 & 120
n) Liabilities
APF II para APS 3.1 Liabilities have been classified according to their nature and have not been offset unless required or permitted by a specific accounting standard, or where offsetting reflects the substance of the transaction or other event.
Where a liability line item combine amounts expected to be settled within 12 months and more than 12 months, the department has separately disclosed the amounts expected to be settled after more than 12 months.
AASB 101 para 119 Payables
AASB 7 para 21 Payables include creditors, accrued expenses, GST payable, employment on-costs and Paid Parental Leave Scheme payable.
Creditors represent the amounts owing for goods and services received prior to the end of the reporting period that are unpaid at the end of the reporting period. Creditors include all unpaid invoices received relating to the normal operations of the Department for SA Service Delivery.
Accrued expenses represent goods and services provided by other parties during the period that are unpaid at the end of the reporting period and where an invoice has not been received.
The Paid Parental Leave Scheme payable represents amounts which the department has received from the Commonwealth Government to forward onto eligible employees via the department’s standard payroll processes. That is, the department is acting as a conduit through which the payment to eligible employees is made on behalf of the Family Assistance Office.
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 55
TI 11
AASB 139 para 43 & 47
All payables are measured at their nominal amount, are unsecured and are normally settled within 30 days from the date of the invoice or date the invoice is first received.
APF IV para APS 5.25
Employee benefits on-costs include payroll tax, WorkCover levies and superannuation contributions in respect of outstanding liabilities for salaries and wages, long service leave, annual leave and skills and experience retention leave.
The department makes contributions to several State Government and externally managed superannuation schemes. These contributions are treated as an expense when they occur. There is no liability for payments to beneficiaries as they have been assumed by the respective superannuation schemes. The only liability outstanding at reporting date relates to any contributions due but not yet paid to the South Australian Superannuation Board.
Borrowings / Financial liabilities
APF IV para APS 6.1 & APS 6.3
The Department measures financial liabilities including borrowings/debt at historical cost, except for interest free loans (measured at the present value of expected repayments).
Notes: Where not-for-profit entities are exempt from the requirements of APF IV Financial Asset and Liability Framework, paragraph APS 6.1, the following note disclosure is provided.
Borrowings /Financial liabilities are recorded initially at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Subsequent to initial recognition, borrowings/financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost with any difference between the initial recognised amount and the redemption value being recognised in profit and loss over the period of the financial liability using the effective interest rate method.
AASB 101 para 119 Leases
AASB1048 Interpretation 4 para 6
The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement.
The Department for SA Service Delivery has entered into finance leases and operating leases.
AASB 117 para 8, 20 Finance leases
Finance leases, which transfer to the department substantially all the risks and benefits/rewards incidental to ownership of the leased assets, are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments.
AASB 117 para 25 & 27
Minimum lease payments are allocated between interest expense/borrowing costs and reduction of the lease liability, to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Where there is no reasonable assurance that the department will obtain ownership of the capitalised asset at the end of the lease term, the asset is amortised over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life.
AASB 117 para 33 Operating leases
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The straight-line basis is representative of the pattern of benefits derived from the leased assets.
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 56
AASB 1048 Interpretation 115 para 3
Lease incentives
All incentives for the agreement of a new or renewed operating lease are recognised as an integral part of the net consideration agreed for the use of the leased asset. Incentives received to enter into operating leases are recognised as a liability.
The aggregate benefits of lease incentives received by the department in respect of operating leases have been recorded as a reduction of rental expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis.
Lease incentives in the form of leasehold improvements are capitalised as an asset and depreciated over the remaining term of the lease or estimated useful life of the improvement, whichever is shorter.
AASB 139 para 47(c) Financial guarantees
At the time a financial guarantee contract is issued, it is recognised as a liability initially measured at fair value. If there is a material increase in the likelihood that the guarantee may have to be exercised, the financial guarantee is measured at the higher of the amount determined in accordance with AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and the amount initially recognised less accumulative amortisation, where appropriate.
In the determination of fair value, consideration is given to the following factors:
the overall capital management / prudential supervision framework in operation
the protection provided by the State Government by way of funding should the probability of default increase the probability of default by the guaranteed party
the likely loss to the department in the event of default.
The department has reviewed its financial guarantees and determined that there is [no material liability to be recognised for financial guarantee contracts as at 30 June 2015 (there was no material liability recognised for financial guarantee contracts in 2014).]
Whilst no liability has been recognised for financial guarantee contracts, further note disclosures relating to financial guarantees are contained at note 29 and 35.
AASB 101 para 119 Employee benefits
AASB 119 para 10, 11,154
These benefits accrue for employees as a result of services provided up to the reporting date that remain unpaid. Long-term employee benefits are measured at present value and short-term employee benefits are measured at nominal amounts.
AASB 101 para 122 Salaries and wages, annual leave, SERL and sick leave
The liability for salary and wages is measured as the amount unpaid at the reporting date at remuneration rates current at reporting date.
The annual leave liability and the SERL liability is expected to be payable within 12 months and is measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid.
No provision has been made for sick leave as all sick leave is non-vesting and the average sick leave taken in future years by employees is estimated to be less than the annual entitlement for sick leave.
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 57
Where agencies have substantial excess leave balances (to be paid later than 12 months
after balance date), the annual leave liability or skills and experience retention leave liability will be measured at present value rather than nominal value. Refer to APF IV Financial Assets and Liabilities Framework for guidance including the liability calculation.
The following note disclosure is provided:
Where the annual leave liability and the skills and experience retention leave liability are expected to be payable within twelve months, the liability has been measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid. Where annual leave liability and skills and experience retention leave liability are expected to be payable later than 12 months, the liability is measured at present value.
AASB 119 para 154
AASB 101 para 122, 125 APF IV para APS 5.10
Long service leave
The liability for long service leave is measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method.
The estimated liability for long service leave is based on actuarial assumptions over expected future salary and wage levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. These assumptions are based on employee data over [SA Government entities/the education sector across government/ the police and emergency services sector across government].
Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds with durations that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
The unconditional portion of the long service leave provision is classified as current as the department does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after reporting date. The unconditional portion of long service leave relates to an unconditional legal entitlement to payment arising after 10 years of service.
AASB 101 para 119 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the department has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the department expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income net of any reimbursement.
AASB 137 para 36, 45, 47
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted for the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
The workers compensation provision is an actuarial estimate of the outstanding liability as at 30 June 2015 provided by a consulting actuary engaged through the Public Sector Workforce Relations Division of the Department of the Premier and Cabinet. The provision is for the estimated cost of ongoing payments to employees as required under current legislation.
The Department is responsible for the payment of workers compensation claims.

Commitments include operating, capital and outsourcing arrangements arising from contractual or statutory sources and are disclosed at their nominal value.
Contingent assets and contingent liabilities are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position, but are disclosed by way of a note and, if quantifiable, are measured at nominal value.
Unrecognised contractual commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office. If GST is not payable to, or recoverable from, the Australian Taxation Office, the commitments and contingencies are disclosed on a gross basis.
Note 3 New and revised accounting standards and policies
AASB 108 para 28, 29
The department did not voluntarily change any of its accounting policies during 2014-15.
Accounting Policy Framework
In accordance with amendments to Accounting Policy Framework II General Purpose Financial Statements Framework, effective for the year ended 30 June 2015, the Government Accounting Board is no longer considered an administered item of the Department of SA Service Delivery. Accordingly, the department will no longer aggregate the Government Accounting Board in its administered financial statements, schedules or explanatory notes. Previously the department included the Government Accounting Board within its aggregated administered financial statements. This change is reflected in note A4 and the administered financial statements at the back of the controlled financial statements.
Accounting Standards
In accordance with the new AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting , which became effective for the first time in 2014-15, the department has:
included a comprehensive new note ‘Budgetary reporting and explanations of major variances’ (notes 40 and A5). These notes disclose, in respect of the Statement of Comprehensive Income and Investing Expenditure Summary for both controlled and administered amounts:
- the department’s original budget as published in Budget Paper 4
- a comparison of the original budget information to actual results
- explanations of major variances.
In accordance with the new AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and AASB 11 Joint Arrangements, which became effective for the first time in 2014-15, the department has reviewed its control assessments (ie the department’s involvement with the entity; protective and substantive rights; ability to direct major relevant activities etc) in accordance with AASB 10 and its classification assessments in accordance with AASB 11 and has concluded that there is no impact. The department does not currently control another entity and does not have any joint arrangements within the scope of AASB 11.
The department will continue to review its involvement and arrangements with entities it is connected with to determine the impact of AASB 10 and 11 for future years.
Department for SA Service Delivery
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 59
[The model financial statements do not illustrate the consolidation of controlled entities – where this occurs the following wording may be appropriate:
In accordance with the new AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements which became effective for the first time in 2014-15, the department has concluded that it will continue to have control over the [Funds, Commission etc] and will continue to not have any control over any additional entities. Accordingly AASB 10 does not impact on the Department’s economic entity. Refer to Note [ ] for further information about the department’s involvement with the [Funds, Commission etc].
In forming this view, the department considered its involvement with the entity; protective and substantive rights; ability to direct major relevant activities etc in accordance with AASB 10.
In relation to AASB 11 Joint Arrangements which became effective for the first time in 2014-15, the department has reviewed its contractual arrangements and concluded that no joint arrangements exist.
The department will continue to review its involvement and arrangements with entities it is connected with to determine the impact of AASB 10 and 11 for future years.
AASB 108 para 30, 31
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective, have not been adopted by the department for the period ending 30 June 2015.

Correction of errors
In December 2012, the department entered into a grant agreement with the Commonwealth Government to deliver financial management training for a two year period. Grant funds are paid progressively after each training session held. The department recognised income at the point of contract execution instead of deferring the income recognition until training sessions were held. As a consequence, income was overstated. In May 2015, the department reviewed its grant agreements and discovered the error. The error has been corrected by adjusting each of the affected financial statement line items as follows:

Valuation of land and buildings

An independent valuation of land and buildings was performed in April 2015 by a Certified Practising Valuer from XXX, as at 30 June 2015.
The valuer arrived at the fair value of unrestricted land using the market approach. The valuation was based on recent market transactions for similar land in the area and includes adjustment for factors specific to the land such as size and location. Fair value of land classified as restricted in use was determined using an adjusted market price of surrounding unrestricted land.
The valuer used depreciated replacement cost for buildings, due to there not being an active market. The depreciated replacement cost considered the need for ongoing provision of government services; specialised nature and restricted use of the assets, their size, condition and location.
The valuation used estimates about construction materials that would be required to replace the buildings, information about current construction costs were derived from [Building costs guides / internal records such as recent tender documents, construction invoices etc] and the estimated useful life due to age and condition of the building. .
Carrying amount of plant and equipment
AASB 13 para 93(d)(g)
AASB 116 para 79(a), (b) & (c)
All items of plant and equipment had a fair value at the time of acquisition that was less than $1 million or had an estimated useful life that was less than three years, and have not been revalued in accordance with APF III. The carrying value of these items are deemed to approximate fair value. These assets are classified in level 3 as there has been no subsequent adjustments to their value, except for management assumptions about the asset condition and remaining useful life.
Plant and equipment includes $xxx of temporarily idle plant and equipment; $y of fully depreciated plant and equipment still in use; and $z of plant and equipment retired from active use but not classified as held for sale.

Heritage assets
An independent valuation of heritage assets was performed in April 2015 by a Certified Practising Valuer from XXX as at 30 June 2015. The valuer specialises in the valuation of heritage assets - as there is no active market for these, the valuer used the cost approach (ie depreciated reproduction cost) taking into account the assets characteristics and restrictions. The valuation was based on a combination of internal records, specialised knowledge and market information about reproduction materials.

Impairment
AASB 137 para 130 An impairment loss of $x for land has been recognised in other expenses in the Statement of Comprehensive Income for the year ended 30 June 2015. This is due to EPA advising the department that a vacant unrestricted land parcel, that was transferred to the department in May last year, is contaminated.
As a result the land is impaired and has been written down to its fair value less costs of disposal. The valuation was provided by an independent Certified Practising Valuer from [abc entity]. In determining fair value the Valuer did not use a present value technique but rather considered the observable market data being the value of adjoining parcels of land that were also contaminated. The land is classified as a level 2 asset for the purposes of the fair value hierarchy.
There were no other indications of impairment of property, and plant and equipment at 30 June 2015.

Valuation basis
As at 30 June 2015, an independent valuation was performed on all investment properties, by Certified Practising Valuers with recent experience in the local market and equivalent properties, Investment properties are measured at fair value.
Where there is recent market transactions for similar properties, the valuations are based on the amounts for which the properties could be exchanged between willing parties in an arm’s length transaction, based on current prices in the active market for similar properties, These investment properties have been categorised as level 2.
Where there is no active market, the valuations are based on recent selling prices in less active markets adjusted for factors specific to the property being valued such as its nature, characteristics and location. These investment properties have been categorised as level 3.
AASB 140 para 53, 53A
The department has determined that the fair value of an investment property under construction/development is not reliably determinable but expects the fair value of the property to be reliably determinable when construction/development is complete.

There were no transfers of assets between level 1 and 2 fair value hierarchy levels in 2015. The department’s policy is to recognise transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.
Refer to APF III Asset Accounting Framework for guidance in determining the applicable fair value hierarchy disclosure level.
Note, where valuations are susceptible to major movement on the basis of changes to unobservable inputs, it may be necessary to include a sensitivity analysis regarding changes to unobservable inputs, for further information refer to AASB 13 para 93(h)(i).

Valuation techniques and inputs
Valuation techniques and inputs used to derive level 2 and 3 fair values are at note 24 and 26. There were no changes in valuation techniques during 2015. The following table summarises the quantitative information above the significant unobservable inputs used in level 3 fair value measurement.

Creditors and accruals are raised for all amounts billed but unpaid. Sundry creditors are normally settled within 30 days. Employment on-costs are settled when the respective employee benefits that they relate to is discharged. All payables are non-interest bearing.

APF IV para 5.9
AASB 119 contains the calculation methodology for long service leave liability. The actuarial assessment performed by the Department of Treasury and Finance has provided a basis for the measurement of long service leave. AASB 119 requires the use of the yield on long-term Commonwealth Government bonds as the discount rate in the measurement of the long service leave liability. The yield on long-term Commonwealth Government bonds has [increase/decreased] from 2014 (3.5%) to 2015 (X%).
AASB 108 para 39 APF IV para 5.5
This [decrease/increase] in the bond yield, which is used as the rate to discount future long service leave cash flows, results in a [increase/decrease] in the reported long service leave liability.
The net financial effect of the changes in the current financial year is an increase in the long service leave liability of $x and employee benefits expense of $y. The impact on future periods is impracticable to estimate as the long service leave liability is calculated using a number of assumptions – a key assumption is the long-term discount rate.
The actuarial assessment performed by the Department of Treasury and Finance left the salary inflation rate at 4%. As a result, there is no net financial effect resulting from changes in the salary inflation rate.

Remuneration of members reflects all costs of performing board/committee
member duties including sitting fees, superannuation contributions, salary sacrifice benefits and fringe benefits and any fringe benefits tax paid or payable in respect of those benefits. The total remuneration received or receivable by members was $xxx ($yyy).
*In accordance with the Premier and Cabinet Circular No. 016, government employees did not receive any remuneration for board/committee duties during the financial year.
Unless otherwise disclosed, transactions between members are on conditions no more favourable than those that it is reasonable to expect the entity would have adopted if dealing with the related party at arm's length in the same circumstances.
The Model Financial Statements demonstrate a consolidated table for the remuneration of all members of boards and committees. Agencies may, if they wish, prepare separate member remuneration tables for each board/committee rather than a consolidated table.
Consistent with the guidance in APF II, where a board or committee member has, during the year, been appointed, resigned, retired or term ceased this has been disclosed, as illustrated above.
The APS does not require direct out of pocket reimbursement of expenses incurred in carrying out the duties of the board/committee member to be included in the remuneration for the purpose of this note disclosure.
In some cases, board/committee members may receive a travel allowance or reimbursement. Whether or not this payment is a reimbursement for direct out-of-pocket expenses incurred in carrying out the duties of the board/committee member will be a matter of judgement.
The public authority may choose to include these amounts in the remuneration for the purpose of the note disclosure. If these amounts are deemed to be reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses, and the agency does not include these amounts in the remuneration amounts in the disclosure table, then the public authority should include a note to the effect that:
"For the purpose of this table, the travel allowance paid to members has not been included as remuneration as it is considered to be a reimbursement of direct out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the relevant members."

1 The budget process is not subject to audit. Budget information refers to the amounts presented to Parliament in the original budgeted financial statements in respect of the reporting period (2014-15 Budget Paper 4). These original budgeted amounts have been presented and classified on a basis that is consistent with line items in the financial statements. However, these amounts have not been adjusted to reflect revised budgets or administrative restructures/machinery of government changes.
[Agencies to provide brief explanations where the variance exceeds the greater of 10% of the budgeted amount and 5% of budgeted total expenses]
(a) Employee benefits expense was greater than original budget largely due to the LSL expense. The LSL expense increased as a result of a .5 percent increase in the discount rate
(b) Supplies and Services were lower than original budget due to the project 501 being abolished, in accordance with savings measures
(c) Depreciation and amortisation was lower than the original budget mostly due to leasehold improvements assets being classified as work-in-progress and not depreciated in the current year.
(d) Grants and subsidies were lower than the original budget due to the grant program for restoring heritage assets being abolished, in accordance with savings measures.
(e) Other expenses were higher than original budget due to furniture and fittings being derecognized. (f) Revenue from fees and charges was higher than original budget primarily due to unbudgeted income
for the unprecedented sale of 502 licences. (g) Commonwealth revenues were lower than original budget primarily due to the Commonwealth
abolishing the highways program. (h) Other income was higher than original budget primarily due to significant salary and wage recoveries
as a result of the Shared Services SA’s focus project on ‘salary overpayment’ debt recovery.

(i) Total new project investing expenditure was lower than original budget largely due to the new website project being delayed until 2016.
(j) Total existing project investing expenditure was higher than original budget due to the project 501 requiring significant rework by engineers in phase 2.
Budgeted amounts
In relation to reporting the ‘actual amounts’ of each line item disclosed in the Statement of Comprehensive Income for the current financial year (not comparatives), not-for profit entities (that meet APF II APS 4.17)) must disclose the corresponding original budgeted amount for that line item for the current financial year.
The budgeted amounts disclosed, where appropriate, must be drawn from the original budgeted financial statements presented to Parliament (Budget Paper 4) in respect of the reporting period.

Note these amount are not be adjusted to reflect revised budgets, administrative restructures or machinery of government changes.
In relation to reporting major variances.
Variances under 10% of the original budgeted line item are generally not required to be explained. In addition, variances under 5% of the original budgeted total expenses are generally not required to be explained.
For example:
A. Employee benefits expense –actual amount $365,660, line item budgeted amount $356,235. Variance to original budgeted amount is $9,425 or 2.64% . The variance is not greater than 10% of the original budgeted amount and according an explanation is not required.
B. Employee benefits expense –actual amount $456,660, line item budgeted amount $356,235. Total budgeted expense is $2,046,896. Variance to original budgeted amount is $100,425 or 28.19%. The variance is greater than 10% of the original budgeted amount. Variance to original total budgeted expenses is $100,425 or 4.9%. The variance is not greater than 5% of the original total budgeted expense and according an explanation is not required.
C. Employee benefits expense –actual amount $501,660, line item budgeted amount $356,235. Total budgeted expense is $1,146,896. Variance to original budgeted amount is $145,425 or 40.8%. The variance is greater than 10% of the original budgeted amount. Variance to original total budgeted expenses is $145,425 or 12.67%. The variance is greater than 5% of the original total budgeted expenses and accordingly an explanation is required.
Please note, that at times, variances below the 10% line item AND/OR below the 5% of total expenses will be considered a major variance, and accordingly an explanation required, because of the nature of the line item or based on qualitative grounds.

Note 41 Financial risk management/ Financial instruments
AASB 7 para 7,31,33
41.1 Financial risk management
Risk management is managed by the Department’s corporate services section and departmental risk management policies are in accordance with the Risk Management Policy Statement issued by the Premier and Treasurer and the principles established in the Australian Standard Risk Management Principles and Guidelines.
The Department is exposed to financial risk – liquidity risk, credit risk and market risk. There have been no changes in risk exposure since the last reporting period.
41.2 Categorisation of financial instruments AASB 7 para 6,7,8,21,25, 29(a) AASB 139 para 46,47 APF IV para APS2.1 and APS6.1 AASB 13 para 93,97
AASB 13 para 93 (a),(b),(c)
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement, and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised with respect to each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 2.
Refer note 41.3 for the carrying amounts of each of the following categories of financial assets and liabilities: Held-to-maturity investments; loan and receivables; and financial liabilities measured at cost.
Department of SA Service Delivery does not recognise any financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value, but does disclose fair value in the notes. All of the resulting fair value estimates are included in level 2 as all significant inputs required are observable.
The carrying value less impairment provisions of receivables and payables is a reasonable approximation of their fair values due to the short-term nature of these (refer notes 2, 20 and 28).
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, plus any transaction cost directly attributable to the borrowings, then subsequently held at amortised cost. The fair value of borrowings approximates the carrying amount, as the impact of discounting is not significant (refer notes 2 and 29).
Held-to-maturity investments are initially recognised at fair value, then subsequently held at amortised cost. This is the most representative of fair value in the circumstances (refer notes 2 and 21).
In relation to note 41, particularly for smaller agencies with limited financial risk management and Financial instruments, tables may be deleted and replace with text where text is sufficient. Where not-for-profit entities are exempt from the requirements of APF IV Financial Asset and Liability Framework para APS 6.1 consider adding a column in Table 41.3 to classify classes of financial assets and liabilities by the fair value hierarchy or alternatively consider the following illustrative disclosure: The recognised fair values of financial assets and liabilities are classified according to the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value of financial assets or liabilities traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities at balance sheet data (level 1). The quoted market price used for assets held by the department is the most representative of fair value in the circumstances. The fair value of assets or liabilities that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. All significant inputs required to fair value financial assets and liabilities are observable, and accordingly included in level 2. The department has no valuations for financial assets or liabilities categorised into level 3 (ie fair values derived from data not observable in a market).

There were no transfers of assets between level 1 and 2 fair value hierarchy levels in 2015 or 2014. The department’s policy is to recognise transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.
41.3 Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the department is unable to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The department is funded principally from appropriation by the SA Government. The department works with the Department of Treasury and Finance to determine the cash flows associated with its Government approved program of work and to ensure funding is provided through SA Government budgetary processes to meet the expected cash flows.
The Department for SA Service Delivery settles undisputed accounts within 30 days from the date of the invoice or date the invoice is first received. In the event of a dispute, payment is made 30 days from resolution.
The Department for SA Service Delivery’s exposure to liquidity risk is insignificant based on past experience and current assessment of risk.
The carrying amount recorded in note 41.3 represent the department’s maximum exposure.
The following table discloses the carrying amount of each category of financial instrument held by the department including the contractual maturity analysis for financial assets and liabilities (ie liquidity risk).
Cash flows realised from financial assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may differ from that disclosed. The timing of cash flows presented in the table to settle financial liabilities reflects the earliest contractual settlement dates.
Where a not-for-profit entity has material risk, consider the following illustrative note exposure:

Model Financial Statements as at February 2015 101
AASB 132 para AG 12
(1) Receivable and payable amounts disclosed here exclude amounts relating to statutory receivables and payables (eg Commonwealth, State and Local Govt taxes, fees and charges; Auditor-General’s Department audit fees ). In government, certain rights to receive or pay cash may not be contractual and therefore in these situations, the requirements will not apply. Where rights or obligations have their source in legislation such as levies , tax and equivalents etc they would be excluded from the disclosure. The standard defines contract as enforceable by law. All amounts recorded are carried at cost (not materially different from amortised cost).
(2) Receivables amount disclosed here excludes prepayments. Prepayments are presented in note 20 as trade and other receivables in accordance with paragraph 78(b) of AASB 101. However, prepayments are not financial assets as defined in AASB 132 as the future economic benefit of these assets is the receipt of goods and services rather than the right to receive cash or another financial asset.
AASB 132. AG 12, AASB 7 para B11D, 39. AASB 7 para 39 IG IFRS 7 para 30 AASB 7 para B11
Categorisation of financial asset and liability
AASB 7 para 29 requires disclosure of fair value of categories of financial assets and liabilities only when carrying amount is not a reasonable approximation of fair value. Where the carrying amount is different to fair value (eg available for sale assets), consider adding a separate column for fair value or adding the fair value amount in brackets.
Maturity Analysis
Maturity analysis of receivables/payables must exclude statutory receivables/payables.
AASB 7 requires undiscounted amounts to be included in the maturity analysis. This means there may be cases where the amount included in the Statement of Financial Position for a financial asset or liability will be different to the amount included in the maturity analysis. An example of this would be finance leases.
Contractual maturities are likely to differ from carrying amounts when there is interest receivable or payable on the relevant financial instrument.
The model financial statements illustrates a maturity analysis for non-derivative financial liabilities. If an agency had derivative financial liabilities the additional disclosures in AASB 7 para 39(b) would be required.
*for issued guarantee contracts the maximum amount of the guarantee is allocated to the earliest period in which the guarantee could be called.
AASB 7 requires maturity analysis to be undertaken for all financial liabilities. AASB 7 only requires a maturity analysis be undertaken for financial assets that are held for the purposes of managing liquidity risk.
AASB 7 provides an example of the time bands to include in the maturity analysis required by the standard. These time bands are as follows:
• not later than one month;
• later than one month and not later than three months;
• later than three months and not later than one year; and
• later than one year and not later than five years.
It is considered that these are not the most appropriate time bands for SA Government as the public sector is not as focused on the short-term liquidity of its financial assets and liabilities. As such, the Model Financial Statements uses three time bands, which are as follows:
• one year or less;
• over one year to five years; and
• over five years.

AASB 7 para 31, 34, 36, 37
41.4 Credit risk
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility of the department’s debtors defaulting on their contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the department. The department measures credit risk on a fair value basis and monitors risk on a regular basis.
The department has minimal concentration of credit risk. The department has policies and procedures in place to ensure that transactions occur with customers with appropriate credit history. The department does not engage in high risk hedging for its financial assets. No collateral is held as security and no credit enhancements relate to financial assets held by the department
Allowances for impairment of financial assets are calculated on past experience and current and expected changes in client credit rating. Other than receivables, there is no evidence to indicate that financial assets are impaired. Refer note 20 for information on the allowance for impairment in relation to receivables.
The carrying amount of financial assets as detailed in note 41.3 represents the department’s maximum exposure to credit risk.
AASB 7 para 34, 36
Where a not-for-profit entity has material risk, consider the following illustrative note disclosure:

41.5 Market risk
Market risk for the department is primarily through interest rate risk. Exposure to interest rate risk may arise through its interest bearing liabilities, including borrowings. The Department for SA Service Delivery’s interest bearing liabilities are managed through SAFA and any movement in interest rates are monitored on a daily basis. There is no exposure to foreign currency or other price risks.
Sensitivity disclosure analysis
A sensitivity analysis has not been undertaken for the interest rate risk of the department as it has been determined that the possible impact on profit and loss or total equity from fluctuations in interest rates is immaterial.
Where material, consider the following illustrative note disclosure:
Taking into account future expectations, economic forecasts and management’s knowledge and experience of financial markets, the Department for SA Service Delivery believes the following movements are reasonably possible over the next 12 months - a parallel movement of +1% and –1% in market interest rates from year-end rates of 6.75%.
The impact on net operating result for each affected financial liability by the department, if the above movements were to occur, are disclosed in Table 41.5 below:

ADMINISTERED ITEMS
AASB 1050 Administered Items paragraph 7 requires disclosure of items relating to activities administered by a government department on behalf of its controlling government in the capacity of an agency. Administered items include ‘trust accounts’.
Accounting Policy Framework II General Purpose Financial Statements, paragraph APS 3.11 requires that:
For administered items that are not significant in relation to the department’s overall financial performance and position, financial information shall be disclosed in the notes as a schedule. This is illustrated on page 108 onwards.
For administered items that are significant in relation to the department’s overall financial performance or financial position, separate ‘administered’ financial statements and notes shall be prepared. This is illustrated on page 113.
The financial schedules and notes are to be prepared using the same accounting policies and principles for controlled transactions and balances. Please note that general note disclosure need not be repeated but reference can be made to departmental note disclosure, e.g. the significant accounting policies note.
Please note the following disclosures need to be made for administered items:
commitments, contingent assets and liabilities.
board/committee member disclosures.
budgetary reporting
For the purpose of reporting, it is considered all programs/activities should be disclosed individually unless they represent less than 10 percent of the total administered activities of the department.
The notes to the accounts for the administered financial statements have not been included in the model as the notes to the controlled financial statements can be used as a guide. Relevant note disclosures should be provided in relation to specific aspects of activities but general accounting policies should not be duplicated.

Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Mandatory Effective Date of AASB 9 and Transition Disclosures
Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Conceptual Framework, Materiality and Financial Instruments’
Amendments to Australian Accounting
AASB 9 provides the principles for the classification, measurement, recognition, derecognition and disclosure associated with financial assets and liabilities.
It also includes new rules for hedge accounting.
In Dec 2014, the AASB made further amendments to AASB 9’s classification and measurement rules and also introduced a new impairment model.
AASB 9 has now been finalised.
The amending standards make various consequential amendments as a result of the issuance of AASB 9; and amend the mandatory effective date of AASB 9 to 1 Jan 18
1 Jan 18 The department is not expecting any impacts from the new classification, measurement, recognition and de- recognition rules on financial assets and liabilities.
The dept does not ‘hedge account’.
The new impairment model is an expected credit loss model which may result in earlier recognition of credit losses.
It is envisaged that the Treasurer will continued to mandate historical cost for financial assets (except for derivates) and liabilities.
Accordingly, the department is not expecting any impacts.

AASB 14 Regulatory Deferred Accounts
This standard establishes the financial reporting requirements for regulatory deferral account balances that arise when an entity provides goods or services to customers at a price or rate that is subject to rate regulation.
The standard applies to first Australian Accounting Standard financial statements if the entity conducts rate regulated activities and it recognised amounts that qualify as regulatory deferral account balances in its financial statements in accordance with previous GAAP.
1 Jan 16 This standard will not have an impact on Department of SA Service Delivery.
The department adopted Australian Accounting Standards in 2005.

AASB 15
AASB 2014-5
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 15
AASB 15 will replace AASB 118 and AASB 111.
The revenue recognition principle in the new standard is’ when control of a good or service transfers to a customer’ , rather than ‘where the risk and rewards of ownership reside’.
In addition, consistent with AASB 10, the AASB will be releasing guidance for not-for-profit entities to assist with the implementation of this new standard.
This amending standard makes consequential amendments to a number of standards as a result of AASB 15 being issued.
1 Jan 17 Depending on the specifics in the not-for-profit implementation guidance to be released by the AASB, it is envisaged that this standard will have an impact on the Dept of SA service Delivery – in relation to the potential timing of revenue recognition.
The department will review its contractual arrangements once the AASB releases its not-for-profit guidance. In particular having regard to the definitions of a contract and customer and whether the contractual arrangements are in the entity’s ordinary activities.
Depending on the implementation guidance, the department’s grants, and service contractual arrangements such as MOU and MOAA’s may result in the identification of separate performance obligations which could affect the timing of revenue recognition.
1 July 17
Model Financial Statements as at February 2015
At this stage, the department is not able to estimate the dollar impact on the financial statements.
The department’s financial report will include additional disclosures (qualitative and quantitative)

b. The acquirer is to disclose information required by AASB 3 and other standards for business combination.
1 Jan 16 The standard will not have an impact on Department of SA Service Delivery.

1 Jan 16 This standard will not have an impact on Department of SA Service Delivery.

This amendment standard principally amends:
