Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2016
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(f) Accounting for the Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Income, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except:
The amount of GST incurred by the Entity as a purchaser that is not recoverable frm the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense
Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. However, the GST components of cash flows arising from investing which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.
(g) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents is cash held at bank.
(h) Receivables
Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These financial assets are recognised initially at fair value, usually based on the transaction cost or face value. Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for any impairment of receivables. Any changes are recognised in the determination of Total Comprehensive Income for the year when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process. There was no change due to impairment, de-recognition or through the amortisation process.
Short-term receivables with no stated interest rate are measured at the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(i) Other financial assets
Other financial assets are investments that are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the Entity has positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. These investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. These assets represent common trust funds for the moneys entrusted to the Statutory Trustee in accordance with section 8 of the Technical Education Trust Funds Act 1967 (the Act). Interest payments are received for each term deposit every six months and are allocated proportionately according to the amount contributed by each fund to the common trust fund, as required by the Act.

11. Financial Instruments (continued)
(b) Credit riskCredit risk arises when there is the possibility of the Entity’s debtors defaulting on their contractual obligations, resulting in financial loss to the Entity. The maximum exposure to credit risk is generally represented by the carrying amount of the financial assets.
Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Entity, including cash, receivables and term deposits. No collateral is held by the Entity. The Entity has not granted any financial guarantees.
Credit risk associated with the Entity’s financial assets, other than receivables, is managed through selection of counterparties and establishment of minimum credit rating standards.
Impact of credit risk to the Entity is minimal.
(c) Liquidity riskLiquidity risk is the risk that the Entity will be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due. The Entity continuously manages risk through monitoring future cash flows and maturities planning to ensure adequate holding of high quality liquid assets. The objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility.
Exposure to Liquidity risk is considered minimal.

11. Financial Instruments (continued)
(d) Market riskMarket risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Entity has no exposure to other price risk.
The effect on profit and equity due to a reasonably possible change in risk variable is outlined in the information below, for interest rate risk. A reasonably possible change in risk variable has been determined after taking into account the economic environment in which the Entity operates and the time frame for the assessment (i.e. until the end of the next annual reporting period). The sensitivity analysis is based on risk exposures in existence at the statement of financial position date. The analysis is performed on the same basis as for 2015. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant.
(e) Interest rate riskExposure to interest rate risk arises primarily through the Entity’s cash at bank. All the other financial assets held are subject to fixed interest rates. The weighted effective interest on this is 3.66% p.a. (4.48% p.a. 2015). Interest on the bank balance is subject to fluctuations in market rates. All other financial assets are not subject to interest rate risk as they are non-interest bearing. Impact of interest rate risk to the Entity is minimal.
