Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 9
The principal accounting policies adopted by Council in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below in order to assist in its general understanding. Under Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs), accounting policies are defined as those specific principles, bases, conventions, rules and practices applied by a reporting entity (in this case Council) in preparing and presenting its financial statements. (a) Basis of preparation (i) Background These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with; Australian Accounting Standards and Australian
Accounting Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board,
the Local Government Act (1993) & Regulation,
and the Local Government Code of Accounting
Practice and Financial Reporting. For the purpose of preparing these financial statements, Council has been deemed to be a not-for-profit entity. (ii) Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) Because AASBs are sector neutral, some standards either:
(a) have local Australian content and prescription that is specific to the Not-For-Profit sector (including Local Government) which are not in compliance with IFRS’s, or
(b) specifically exclude application by Not for Profit entities.
Accordingly in preparing these financial statements and accompanying notes, Council has been unable to comply fully with International Accounting Standards, but has complied fully with Australian Accounting Standards.
Under the Local Government Act (LGA), Regulations and Local Government Code of Accounting Practice & Financial Reporting, it should be noted that Councils in NSW only have a requirement to comply with AASBs. (iii) New and amended standards adopted by Council During the current year, the following relevant standards became mandatory for Council and have been adopted: AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement AASB 119 Employee Benefits AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement has not affected the assets or liabilities which are to be measured at fair value, however it provides detailed guidance on how to measure fair value in accordance with the accounting standards. It introduces the concept of highest and best use for non-financial assets and has caused the Council to review their valuation methodology. The level of disclosures regarding fair value have increased significantly and have been included in the financial statements at Note 27. AASB 119 Employee Benefits introduced revised definitions for short-term employee benefits. Whilst the Council has reviewed the annual leave liability to determine the level of annual leave which is expected to be paid more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period, there has been no effect on the amounts disclosed as leave liabilities since Council’s existing valuation policy was to discount annual leave payable more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period to present values. (iv) Early adoption of Accounting Standards Council has not elected to apply any pronouncements before their operative date in the annual reporting period beginning 1 July 2013. Refer further to paragraph (ab) relating to a summary of the effects of Standards with future operative dates.
Financial Statements 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 10
(v) Basis of Accounting These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for: (i) certain financial assets and liabilities at fair
value through profit or loss and available-for-sale financial assets which are all valued at fair value,
(ii) the write down of any Asset on the basis of Impairment (if warranted) and
(iii) certain classes of non current assets(eg.
Infrastructure, Property, Plant & Equipment) that are accounted for at fair valuation.
The accrual basis of accounting has also been applied in their preparation. (vi) Changes in Accounting Policies Council’s accounting policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. There have also been no changes in accounting policies when compared with previous financial statements unless otherwise stated. (vii) Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates (in conformity with AASBs). Accordingly this requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Council's accounting policies. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions Council makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.
The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are set out below. (i) Estimated fair values of investment properties
(ii) Estimated fair values of infrastructure, property,
plant and equipment.
(iii) Estimated tip remediation provisions.
Critical judgements in applying Council's accounting policies (i) Impairment of Receivables - Council has made
a significant judgement about the impairment of a number of its receivables in Note 7.
(ii) Projected Section 94 Commitments - Council
has used significant judgement in determining future Section 94 income and expenditure in Note 17.
(b) Revenue recognition Council recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to it and specific criteria have been met for each of the Council’s activities as described below. Council bases any estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is measured on major income categories as follows: Rates, Annual Charges, Grants and Contributions Rates, annual charges, grants and contributions (including developer contributions) are recognised as revenues when the Council obtains control over the assets comprising these receipts. Control over assets acquired from rates and annual charges is obtained at the commencement of the rating year as it is an enforceable debt linked to the
Financial Statements 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 11
rateable property or, where earlier, upon receipt of the rates. A provision for the impairment on rates receivables has not been established as unpaid rates represent a charge against the rateable property that will be recovered when the property is next sold. Control over granted assets is normally obtained upon their receipt (or acquittal) or upon earlier notification that a grant has been secured, and is valued at their fair value at the date of transfer. Revenue from Contributions is recognised when the Council either obtains control of the contribution or the right to receive it, (i) it is probable that the economic benefits comprising the contribution will flow to the Council and (ii) the amount of the contribution can be measured reliably. Where grants or contributions recognised as revenues during the financial year were obtained on condition that they be expended in a particular manner or used over a particular period and those conditions were undischarged at balance date, the unused grant or contribution is disclosed in Note 3(g). Note 3(g) also discloses the amount of unused grant or contribution from prior years that was expended on Council’s operations during the current year. The Council has obligations to provide facilities from contribution revenues levied on developers under the provisions of S94 of the EPA Act 1979. Whilst Council generally incorporates these amounts as part of a Development Consents Order, such developer contributions are only recognised as income upon their physical receipt by Council, due to the possibility that individual Development Consents may not be acted upon by the applicant and accordingly would not be payable to Council. Developer contributions may only be expended for the purposes for which the contributions were required but the Council may apply contributions according to the priorities established in work schedules. A detailed Note relating to developer contributions can be found at Note 17.
User Charges, Fees and Other Income User charges, fees and other income (including parking fees and fines) are recognised as revenue when the service has been provided, the payment is received, or when the penalty has been applied, whichever first occurs. A provision for the impairment of these receivables is recognised when collection in full is no longer probable. A liability is recognised in respect of revenue that is reciprocal in nature to the extent that the requisite service has not been provided as at balance date. Sale of Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment The profit or loss on sale of an asset is determined when control of the asset has irrevocably passed to the buyer. Interest and Rents Rental income is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Interest Income from Cash & Investments is accounted for using the effective interest rate at the date that interest is earned. Other Income Other income is recorded when the payment is due, the value of the payment is notified or the payment is received, whichever occurs first. (c) Principles of Consolidation These financial statements incorporate (i) the assets and liabilities of Council and any Entities (or operations) that it controls (as at 30 June 2014) and (ii) all the related operating results (for the financial year ended the 30th June 2014). The financial statements also include Council’s share of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of any Jointly Controlled Operations under the appropriate headings. In the process of reporting on Council’s activities as a single unit, all inter-entity year end balances and
Financial Statements 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 12
reporting period transactions have been eliminated in full between Council and its controlled entities. (i) The Consolidated Fund In accordance with the provisions of Section 409(1) of the LGA 1993, all money and property received by Council is held in the Council’s Consolidated Fund unless it is required to be held in the Council’s Trust Fund. The Consolidated Fund and other entities through which the Council controls resources to carry on its functions have been included in the financial statements forming part of this report. The following entities have been included as part of the Consolidated Fund: General Purpose Operations (ii) The Trust Fund In accordance with the provisions of Section 411 of the Local Government Act 1993 (as amended), a separate and distinct Trust Fund is maintained to account for all money and property received by the Council in trust which must be applied only for the purposes of or in accordance with the trusts relating to those monies. No trust funds are currently held (iii) Joint Ventures Jointly Controlled Assets & Operations The proportionate interests in the assets, liabilities and expenses of a Joint Venture Activity have been incorporated throughout the financial statements under the appropriate headings. Jointly Controlled Entities Any interests in Joint Venture Entities & Partnerships are accounted for using the equity method and is carried at cost. Under the equity method, the share of the profits or losses of the partnership is recognised in the income statement, and the share of movements in retained earnings & reserves is recognised in the balance sheet.
(iv) Associated Entities Where Council has the power to participate in the financial and operating decisions (of another entity), ie. where Council is deemed to have “significant influence” over the other entities operations but neither controls nor jointly controls the entity, then Council accounts for such interests using the equity method of accounting – in a similar fashion to Joint Venture Entities & Partnerships. Such entities are usually termed Associates. (v) County Councils Council is not a member of any County Councils. (vi) Additional Information Note 19 provides more information in relation to Joint Venture Entities, Associated Entities and Joint Venture Operations where applicable. (d) Cash and Cash Equivalents For Statement of Cash Flows (and Statement of Financial Position) presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes; cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with
original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and
bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet but are incorporated into Cash & Cash Equivalents for presentation of the Cash Flow Statement. (e) Investments and Other Financial Assets Council (in accordance with AASB 139) classifies each of its investments into one of the following categories for measurement purposes:
Financial Statements 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 13
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss,
loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, and available-for-sale financial assets. Each classification depends on the purpose/intention for which the investment was acquired & at the time it was acquired. Management determines each Investment classification at the time of initial recognition and re-evaluates this designation at each reporting date. (i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are “held for trading”. A financial asset is classified in the “held for trading” category if it is acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are classified as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are primarily classified as current assets as they are primarily held for trading &/or are expected to be realised within 12 months of the balance sheet date. (ii) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the Council provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention (or in some cases ability) of selling the resulting receivable. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date which are classified as non-current assets.
(iii) Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Council’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. In contrast to the “Loans & Receivables” classification, these investments are generally quoted in an active market. Held-to-maturity financial assets are included in non-current assets, except for those with maturities less than 12 months from the reporting date, which are classified as current assets. (iv) Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. Investments must be designated as available-for-sale if they do not have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments and management intends to hold them for the medium to long term. Accordingly, this classification principally comprises marketable equity securities, but can include all types of financial assets that could otherwise be classified in one of the other investment categories. They are generally included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the balance sheet date or the term to maturity from the reporting date is less than 12 months. Financial Assets – Reclassification Council may choose to reclassify a non-derivative trading financial asset out of the held-for-trading category if the financial asset is no longer held for the purpose of selling it in the near term. Financial assets other than loans and receivables are permitted to be reclassified out of the held-for-trading category only in rare circumstances arising from a single event that is unusual and highly unlikely to recur in the near term. Council may also choose to reclassify financial assets that would meet the definition of loans and

page 14
receivables out of the held-for-trading or available-for-sale categories if it has the intention and ability to hold these financial assets for the foreseeable future or until maturity at the date of reclassification. Reclassifications are made at fair value as of the reclassification date. Fair value becomes the new cost or amortised cost as applicable, and no reversals of fair value gains or losses recorded before reclassification date are subsequently made. Effective interest rates for financial assets reclassified to loans and receivables and held-to-maturity categories are determined at the reclassification date. Further increases in estimates of cash flows adjust effective interest rates prospectively. General Accounting & Measurement of Financial Instruments: (i) Initial Recognition Investments are initially recognised (and measured) at fair value, plus in the case of investments not at “fair value through profit or loss”, directly attributable transactions costs Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on trade-date - the date on which the Council commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Council has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. (ii) Subsequent Measurement Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets classified as “fair value through profit or loss” category are included in the income statement in the period in which they arise.
Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of non monetary securities classified as "available-for-sale" are recognised in equity in the available-for-sale investments revaluation reserve. When securities classified as "available-for-sale" are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments are included in the income statement as gains and losses from investment securities. Impairment Council assesses at each balance date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. (iii) Types of Investments Council has an approved Investment Policy in order to undertake its investment of money in accordance with (and to comply with) Section 625 of the Local Government Act and S212 of the LG (General) Regulation 2005. Investments are placed and managed in accordance with the Policy and having particular regard to authorised investments prescribed under the Ministerial Local Government Investment Order. Council maintains its investment Policy in compliance with the Act and ensures that it or its representatives exercise care, diligence and skill that a prudent person would exercise in investing Council funds. Council amended its policy following revisions to the Ministerial Local Government Investment Order arising from the Cole Inquiry recommendations. Certain investments that Council holds are no longer prescribed (eg. managed funds, CDOs, and equity linked notes), however they have been retained under grandfathering provisions of the Order. These will be disposed of when most financially advantageous to Council.

(f) Fair value estimation The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. Council uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance date. Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments are used for long-term debt instruments held. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Council establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. These include reference to the fair values of recent arm’s length transactions, involving the same instruments or other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis, and option pricing models refined to reflect the issuer’s specific circumstances. The nominal value less estimated credit adjustments of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Council for similar financial instruments. (g) Receivables Receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment. Receivables (excluding Rates & Annual Charges) are generally due for settlement no more than 30 days from the date of recognition.
The collectibility of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off in accordance with Council’s policy. A provision for impairment (ie. an allowance account) relating to receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Council will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of each receivable. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. Impairment losses are recognised in the Income Statement within other expenses. When a receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the income statement. (h) Inventories Raw Materials and Stores, Work in Progress and Finished Goods Raw materials and stores, work in progress and finished goods in respect of business undertakings are all stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on the basis of weighted average costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories held in respect of non-business undertakings have been valued at cost subject to adjustment for loss of service potential.

(i) Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment (I,PP&E) Acquisition of assets Council’s non current assets are continually revalued (over a 5 year period) in accordance with the fair valuation policy as mandated by the Division of Local Government. At balance date, the following classes of I,PP&E were stated at their Fair Value; - Investment Properties – refer Note 1(o), - Operational Land (External Valuation)
- Buildings – Specialised/Non Specialised
(External Valuation) - Plant and Equipment
(as approximated by depreciated historical cost)
- Roads Assets incl. roads, bridges & footpaths (Internal Valuation)
- Drainage Assets (Internal Valuation) - Community Land (External Valuation)
- Depreciable Land Improvements (Internal
Valuation)
- Other Open Space/Recreational asset (Internal Valuation)
- Other Assets (as approximated by depreciated historical cost)
Initial Recognition On initial recognition, an assets cost is measured at its fair value, plus all expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition. Where settlement of any part of an asset’s cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of recognition (ie. date of exchange) of the asset to arrive at fair value. The discount rate used is the Council’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.
Where infrastructure, property, plant and equipment assets are acquired for no cost or for an amount other than cost, the assets are recognised in the financial statements at their fair value at acquisition date - being the amount that the asset could have been exchanged between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. Subsequent costs Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to Council and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. Asset Revaluations (including Indexation) In accounting for Asset Revaluations relating to Infrastructure, Property, Plant & Equipment: Increases in the combined carrying amounts of
asset classes arising on revaluation are credited to the asset revaluation reserve.
To the extent that a net asset class increase
reverses a decrease previously recognised via the profit or loss, then increase is first recognised in profit or loss.
Net decreases that reverse previous increases of
the same asset class are first charged against revaluation reserves directly in equity to the extent of the remaining reserve attributable to the asset, with all other decreases charged to the Income statement.
For all other assets, Council assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that a revalued asset’s carrying amount may differ materially from that which would be determined if the asset were revalued at the reporting date. If any such indication exists, Council determines the asset’s fair value and revalues the asset to that amount. Full revaluations are undertaken for all assets on a 5 year cycle.

Capitalisation Thresholds Items of infrastructure, property, plant and equipment are not capitalised unless their cost of acquisition exceeds the following; Land - council land 100% Capitalised - open space 100% Capitalised - land under roads (purchases after 30/6/08) 100% Capitalised Plant & Equipment Office Furniture > $5,000 Office Equipment > $2,000 Other Plant &Equipment > $2,000 Buildings & Land Improvements Park Furniture & Equipment > $25,000 Building - construction/extensions 100% Capitalised - renovations > $125,000 Other Structures > $25,000 Stormwater Assets Drains & Culverts > $10,000 Other > $10,000 Transport Assets Road construction & reconstruction > $10,000 Reseal/Re-sheet & major repairs: > $10,000 Bridge construction & reconstruction > $10,000 Depreciation Depreciation on Council's infrastructure, property, plant and equipment assets is calculated using the straight line method in order to allocate an assets cost (net of residual values) over its estimated useful life. Land is not depreciated. Estimated useful lives for Council's I,PP&E include: Plant & Equipment - Office Equipment 5 to 10 years - Office furniture 10 years - Computer Equipment 5 to 10 years - Vehicles 7 years - Heavy Plant/Road Making equip. 6 to 10 years
- Other plant and equipment 2 to 25 years Furniture and Fittings - Furniture and Fittings 10 years Buildings - Structure 60 years - Other Components 20 years Stormwater Drainage - Pits 80 to 120 years - Pipe/Conduit 50 to 120 years - GPT Basket 20 years - Other 100 to 120 years Transportation Assets - Road Formation Infinite - Road Pavement 100 years - Road Surface 25 years - Kerb & Gutter 110 years - Footpaths 20 to 80 years - Road Furniture 10 years - Road Structures 80 years Other Infrastructure Assets - Bulk earthworks Infinite Open Space Assets - Ocean Pool 100 years - Swimming Pool 50 years - Playground equipment 15 years - Irrigation System 6 to 20 years - Park Furniture 15 years - Tennis Court 15 years - Skate Park 50 years - Cricket Net 10 years - Turf Cricket Wicket 15 years - Fencing 20 years - Lighting 20 years - Scoreboard 30 years - Signage and Flagpoles 20 years - Water Tank 15 to 50 years Library Resources - Library Resources 5 years All asset residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted (if appropriate), at each reporting date.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount – refer Note 1(s) on Asset Impairment. Disposal and De-recognition An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in Council’s Income Statement in the year the asset is derecognised. (j) Land Land (other than Land under Roads) is in accordance with Part 2 of Chapter 6 of the Local Government Act (1993) classified as either Operational or Community. This classification of Land is disclosed in Note 9(a). (k) Land under roads Land under roads is land under roadways and road reserves including land under footpaths, nature strips and median strips. Council has elected not to recognise land under roads acquired before 1 July 2008 in accordance with AASB 1051. Land under roads acquired after 1 July 2008 is recognised in accordance with AASB 116 – Property, Plant and Equipment. (l) Intangible Assets No intangible asset is held by Council.
(m) Crown Reserves Crown Reserves under Council’s care and control are recognised as assets of the Council. While ownership of the reserves remains with the Crown, Council retains operational control of the reserves and is responsible for their maintenance and use in accordance with the specific purposes to which the reserves are dedicated. Improvements on Crown Reserves are also recorded as assets, while maintenance costs incurred by Council and revenues relating the reserves are recognised within Council’s Income Statement. Representations are currently being sought across State and Local Government to develop a consistent accounting treatment for Crown Reserves across both tiers of government. (n) Investment property Investment property comprises land &/or buildings that are principally held for long-term rental yields, capital gains or both that is not occupied by Council. No investment property is held by Council. (o) Non-Current Assets (or Disposal Groups) “Held for Sale” & Discontinued Operations Council does not hold No Non-Current Assets “Held for Sale” or discontinued operations. (p) Impairment of assets All Council's I,PP&E is subject to an annual assessment of impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.
Financial Statements 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 19
The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Where an asset is not held principally for cash generating purposes (for example Infrastructure Assets) and would be replaced if the Council was deprived of it then depreciated replacement cost is used as value in use, otherwise value in use is estimated by using a discounted cash flow model. Non-financial assets (other than goodwill) that suffered a prior period impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date. Goodwill & other Intangible Assets that have an indefinite useful life and are not subject to amortisation are tested annually for impairment. (q) Payables These amounts represent liabilities and include goods and services provided to the Council prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts for goods and services are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. (r) Borrowings Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Amortisation results in any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount being recognised in the Income Statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Council has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date. Council currently has no borrowings.
(s) Borrowing costs Borrowing costs are expensed except to the extent that the they are incurred during the construction of qualifying assets. Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. (t) Provisions Provisions for legal claims, service warranties and other like liabilities are recognised when: Council has a present legal or constructive
obligation as a result of past events; it is more likely than not that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation; and
the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small. 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. The discount rate used to determine the present value reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

(u) Employee benefits (i) Short Term Obligations Short term employee benefit obligations include liabilities for wages and salaries (including non-monetary benefits), annual leave and vesting sick leave expected to be wholly settled within the 12 months after the reporting period. Leave liabilities are recognised in the provision for employee benefits in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date with other short term employee benefit obligations disclosed under payables.. These provisions are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. All other short-term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables. Liabilities for non vesting sick leave are recognised at the time when the leave is taken and measured at the rates paid or payable, and accordingly no Liability has been recognised in these reports. Wages & salaries, annual leave and vesting sick leave are all classified as Current Liabilities. (ii) Other Long Term Obligations The liability for all long service and annual leave in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date (which is not expected to be wholly settled within the 12 months after the reporting period) are recognised in the provision for employee benefits. These liabilities are measured at the present value of the expected future payments to be made using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are then discounted using market yields at the reporting date based on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match as closely as possible the estimated future cash outflows.
Due to the nature of when and how Long Service Leave can be taken, all Long Service Leave for employees with 4 or more years of service has been classified as Current, as it has been deemed that Council does not have the unconditional right to defer settlement beyond 12 months – even though it is not anticipated that all employees with more than 4 years service (as at reporting date) will apply for and take their leave entitlements in the next 12 months. (iii) Retirement benefit obligations All employees of the Council are entitled to benefits on retirement, disability or death. Council contributes to various defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans on behalf of its employees. Defined Benefit Plans A liability or asset in respect of defined benefit superannuation plans would ordinarily be recognised in the balance sheet, and measured as the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the reporting date plus unrecognised actuarial gains (less unrecognised actuarial losses) less the fair value of the superannuation fund’s assets at that date and any unrecognised past service cost. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is based on expected future payments which arise from membership of the fund to the reporting date, calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. However, when this information is not reliably available, Council can account for its obligations to defined benefit plans on the same basis as its obligations to defined contribution plans – i.e. as an expense when they become payable. Council is party to an Industry Defined Benefit Plan under the Local Government Superannuation Scheme, named the “Local Government Superannuation Scheme – Pool B” This Scheme has been deemed to be a “multi employer fund” for the purposes of AASB 119. Sufficient information is not available to account for the Scheme as a defined benefit plan (in accordance
Financial Statements 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 21
with AASB 119) because the assets to the scheme are pooled together for all Councils. The last valuation of the Scheme was performed by Richard Boyfield of Mercer Consulting Pty Ltd and covers the period ended 30/03/2014. However the position is monitored annually and the Actuary has estimated that as at 30 June 2014 the prior period deficit still exists. Effective from 1 July 2009, employers are required to contribute additional contributions to assist in extinguishing this deficit. The amount of employer contributions to the defined benefit section of the Local Government Superannuation Scheme and recognised as an expense and disclosed as part of Superannuation Expenses at Note 4(a) for the year ending 30 June 2014 was $1,283,573. The amount of additional contributions included in the total employer contribution advised above is $581,158 per year. The share of this deficit that can be broadly attributed to Council is estimated to be in the order of $2,324,632 until 30 June 2018. Council’s share of that deficiency cannot be accurately calculated as the Scheme is a mutual arrangement where assets and liabilities are pooled together for all member councils. For this reason, no liability for the deficiency has been recognised in these financial statements. Council has, however, disclosed a contingent liability in Note 18 to reflect the possible obligation that may arise should the Scheme require immediate payment to correct the deficiency. Defined Contribution Plans Contributions to Defined Contribution Plans are recognised as an expense as they become payable. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available. (iv) Employee Benefit On-Costs Council has recognised at year end the aggregate on-cost liabilities arising from employee benefits,
and in particular those on-cost liabilities that will arise when payment of current employee benefits is made in future periods. These amounts include Superannuation and Workers Compensation expenses which will be payable upon the future payment of certain Leave Liabilities accrued as at 30/6/14. (v) Self insurance Council does not self insure. (w) Allocation between current and non-current assets & liabilities In the determination of whether an asset or liability is classified as current or non-current, consideration is given to the time when each asset or liability is expected to be settled. The asset or liability is classified as current if it is expected to be settled within the next 12 months, being the Council’s operational cycle. Exceptions In the case of liabilities where Council does not have the unconditional right to defer settlement beyond 12 months (such as vested long service leave), the liability is classified as current even if not expected to be settled within the next 12 months. In the case of inventories that are “held for trading”, these are also classified as current even if not expected to be realised in the next 12 months. (x) Taxes The Council is exempt from both Commonwealth Income Tax and Capital Gains Tax. Council does however have to comply with both Fringe Benefits Tax and Goods and Services Tax (GST). Goods & Services Tax (GST) Income, expenses and assets are all recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of
Financial Statements 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 22
GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office (ATO). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the revenue / expense. Receivables and payables within the Balance Sheet are stated inclusive of any applicable GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from or payable to the ATO is included as a current asset or current liability in the Balance Sheet. Operating cash flows within the Cash Flow Statement are on a gross basis, ie. they are inclusive of GST where applicable. Investing and Financing cash flows are treated on a net basis (where recoverable form the ATO), ie. they are exclusive of GST. Instead, the GST component of investing and financing activity cash flows which are recoverable from or payable to the ATO are classified as operating cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from (or payable to) the ATO. (y) New accounting standards and UIG interpretations Certain new (or amended) accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for reporting periods ending 30 June 2014. Council has not adopted any of these standards early. Council’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below. Applicable to Local Government with implications: AASB 9 Financial Instruments, associated standards, AASB 2010-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 and AASB 2012-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Mandatory Effective Date of AASB 9 and transitional disclosures and AASB 2013-9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Conceptual Framework, Materiality and Financial Instruments (effective from 1 January 2017)
AASB 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification, measurement and de-recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The standard is not applicable until 1 January 2015 but is available for early adoption. When adopted, the standard will affect in particular Council’s accounting for its available-for-sale financial assets, since AASB 9 only permits the recognition of fair value gains and losses in other comprehensive income if they relate to equity investments that are not held for trading. Fair value gains and losses on available-for-sale debt investments, for example, will therefore have to be recognised directly in profit or loss although there is currently a proposal by the IASB to introduce a Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income category for debt instruments. There will be no impact on Council’s accounting for financial liabilities, as the new requirements only affect the accounting for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss and Council does not have any such liabilities. The de-recognition rules have been transferred from AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and have not been changed. The Council has not yet fully assessed the impact on the reporting financial position and performance on adoption of AASB 9. Applicable to Local Government but no implications for Council; AASB 2013-3 Amendments to AASB 136 Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets (effective for 30 June 2015 Financial Statements) There are no changes to reported financial position or performance from AASB 2013 – 3, however additional disclosures may be required. Applicable to Local Government but not relevant to Council at this stage; AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, AASB 11 Joint Arrangements, AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, revised AASB 127 Separate Financial Statements and
Financial Statements 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
page 23
AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures and AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards (effective for 30 June 2015 Financial Statements for not-for-profit entities) This suite of five new and amended standards address the accounting for joint arrangements, consolidated financial statements and associated disclosures. AASB 10 replaces all of the guidance on control and consolidation in AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, and Interpretation 12 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. The core principle that a consolidated entity presents a parent and its subsidiaries as if they are a single economic entity remains unchanged, as do the mechanics of consolidation. However, the standard introduces a single definition of control that applies to all entities. It focuses on the need to have both power and rights or exposure to variable returns. Power is the current ability to direct the activities that significantly influence returns. Returns must vary and can be positive, negative or both. Control exists when the investor can use its power to affect the amount of its returns. There is also new guidance on participating and protective rights and on agent/principal relationships. Council does not expect the new standard to have a significant impact on its composition. AASB 11 introduces a principles based approach to accounting for joint arrangements. The focus is no longer on the legal structure of joint arrangements, but rather on how rights and obligations are shared by the parties to the joint arrangement. Based on the assessment of rights and obligations, a joint arrangement will be classified as either a joint operation or a joint venture. Joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, and the choice to proportionately consolidate will no longer be permitted.
Parties to a joint operation will account their share of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities in much the same way as under the previous standard. AASB 11 also provides guidance for parties that participate in joint arrangements but do not share joint control. Council's investment in the joint venture partnership will be classified as a joint venture under the new rules. As Council already applies the equity method in accounting for this investment, AASB 11 will not have any impact on the amounts recognised in its financial statements. AASB 12 sets out the required disclosures for entities reporting under the two new standards, AASB 10 and AASB 11, and replaces the disclosure requirements currently found in AASB 127 and AASB 128. Application of this standard by Council will not affect any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements, but will impact the type of information disclosed in relation to Council's investments. Amendments to AASB 128 provide clarification that an entity continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure its retained interest as part of ownership changes where a joint venture becomes an associate, and vice versa. The amendments also introduce a “partial disposal” concept. Council is still assessing the impact of these amendments. Council does not expect to adopt the new standards before their operative date. They would therefore be first applied in the financial statements for the annual reporting period ending 30 June 2015. Not applicable to Local Government per se; None There are no other standards that are “not yet effective” and expected to have a material impact on Council in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

Note 14. Investment PropertiesCouncil has not classified any Land or Buildings as "Investment Properties"
Note 15. Financial Risk Management
Risk Management
Council's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including (1) price risk, (2) credit risk, (3) liquidity riskand (4) interest rate risk.
The Council's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeksto minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Council.
Council does not engage in transactions expressed in foreign currencies and is therefore not subject to foreigncurrency risk.
Financial risk management is carried out by Council's Finance Section under policies approved by the Council.
A comparison by category of the carrying amounts and fair values of Council's Financial Assets & FinancialLiabilities recognised in the financial statements is presented below.
Financial AssetsCash and Cash EquivalentsInvestments - "Held for Trading" - "Designated At Fair Value on Initial Recognition" - "Held to Maturity" - "Loans & Receivables" - "Available for Sale"ReceivablesOther Financial AssetsTotal Financial Assets
Financial LiabilitiesBank OverdraftPayablesLoans / AdvancesLease LiabilitiesOther Financial LiabilitiesTotal Financial Liabilities
Fair Value is determined as follows:
- Cash & Cash Equivalents, Receivables, Payables - are estimated to be the carrying value which approximates mkt value.
- Borrowings & Held to Maturity Investments - are based upon estimated future cash flows discounted by the current market interest rates applicable to assets & liabilities with similar risk profiles, unless quoted market prices are available.
- Financial Assets classified (i) "at fair value through profit & loss" or (ii) Available for Sale - are based upon quoted market prices (in active markets for identical investments) at the reporting date or independent valuation.
Refer to Note 27 - Fair Value Measurement for information regarding the fair value of financial assets & liabilities

(a) Cash & Cash Equivalents, Financial assets 'at fair value through the profit & Loss' "Available-for-sale" financial assets & "Held-to-maturity" Investments
Council's objective is to maximise its return on cash & investments whilst maintaining an adequate level ofliquidity and preserving capital.
Council's Finance area manages the Cash & Investments portfolio with the assistance of independent advisors.
Council has an Investment Policy which complies with the Local Government Act & Minister's Investment Order.This Policy is regularly reviewed by Council and it's staff and an Investment Report is tabled before Council ona monthly basis setting out the portfolio breakup and its performance.
The risks associated with the investments held are:
- Price Risk - the risk that the capital value of Investments may fluctuate due to changes in market prices, whether there changes are caused by factors specific to individual financial instruments or their issuers or are caused by factors affecting similar instruments traded in a market.
- Interest Rate Risk - the risk that movements in interest rates could affect returns and income.
- Credit Risk - the risk that the investment counterparty) will not complete their obligations particular to a financial instrument, resulting in a financial loss to Council - be it of a capital or income nature.
Council manages these risks (amongst other measures) by diversifying its portfolio and only purchasinginvestments with high credit ratings or capital guarantees.
Council also seeks advice from independent advisers before placing any funds in Cash Equivalents &Investments.
The following represents a summary of the sensitivity of Council's Income Statement and Accumulated Surplus(for the reporting period) due to a change in either the price of a financial asset or the interest rates applicable.
It is assumed that the change in interest rates would have been constant throughout the reporting period.

(b) Receivables
Council's major receivables comprise (i) Rates & Annual charges and (ii) User Charges & Fees.
The major risk associated with these receivables is credit risk - the risk that debts due and payable to Councilmay not be repaid in full.
Council manages this risk by monitoring outstanding debt and employing stringent debt recovery procedures.It also encourages ratepayers to pay their rates by the due date through incentives.
Credit risk on rates and annual charges is minimised by the ability of Council to secure a charge over the landrelating to the debts - that is, the land can be sold to recover the debt. Council is also able to charge intereston overdue rates & annual charges at higher than market rates which further encourages the payment of debt.
Council makes suitable provision for doubtful receivables as required.
There are no material receivables that have been subjected to a re-negotiation of repayment terms.
A profile of Council's receivables credit risk at balance date follows:
(i) Ageing of Receivables - %Current (not yet overdue)Overdue
(ii) Ageing of Receivables - valueCurrent (not yet overdue)Past due by up to 30 daysPast due between 31 and 60 daysPast due between 61 and 90 daysOverdue

(c) Payables & Borrowings
Payables & Borrowings are both subject to liquidity risk - the risk that insufficient funds may be on hand to meetpayment obligations as and when they fall due.
Council manages this risk by monitoring its cash flow requirements and liquidity levels and maintaining anadequate cash buffer.
Payment terms can (in extenuating circumstances) also be extended & overdraft facilities utilised as required.
The contractual undiscounted cash outflows (ie. principal and interest) of Council's Payables & Borrowings areset out in the maturity table below:

Borrowings are also subject to interest rate risk - the risk that movements in interest rates could adverselyaffect funding costs & debt servicing requirements. Council manages this risk through the diversification ofborrowing types, maturities & interest rate structures.
The following interest rates were applicableto Council's Borrowings at balance date:

Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014
Note 16. Material Budget Variations
Council's Original Financial Budget for 13/14 was adopted by the Council on 25 June 2013.
While the Income Statement included in this General Purpose Financial Report must disclose the OriginalBudget adopted by Council, the Local Government Act requires Council to review its Financial Budget on aQuarterly Basis, so that it is able to manage the various variations between actuals versus budget thatinvariably occur throughout the year.
This Note sets out the details of MATERIAL VARIATIONS between Council's Original Budget and its Actualresults for the year as per the Income Statement - even though such variations may have been adjusted forduring each Quarterly Budget Review.
Note that for Variations* of Budget to Actual :Material Variations represent those variances that amount to 10% or more of the original budgeted figure.F = Favourable Budget Variation, U = Unfavourable Budget Variation
$ '000
REVENUESRates & Annual Charges
User Charges & Fees
Interest & Investment RevenueCouncil's cash reserves were high during a large proportion of the year resulting in higher revenue yields. Council's investments were also performing well which also contributed to the higher than budgeted amounts. Council has a conservative approach to investment income budgeting.
Other Revenues
Operating Grants & ContributionsCouncil receives various operating Grants and Contributions for a variety of activities that it does not originallybudget for. During 2013-14 Council received two large grants for the Waste Less Recycle More Initiatives and the Waste and Sustainability Improvement Program. These two grants totalled over $1 million.
Capital Grants & ContributionsEach year Council receives section 94 contributions relating to developments. The high levels of contributions receives during the financial year was not anticipated when the original budget was developed.
Net Gains from Disposal of AssetsCouncil does not budget for the Net Loss or Gain made from the disposal of its assets. These gain or lossesresult from a movement in their written down value which is a non-cash item. Council only budgets forthe cash proceeds received from the sale of the asset.

Note 27. Fair Value Measurement
$ '000
The Council measures the following asset and liability classes at fair value on a recurring basis:
- Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment- Financial Assets & Liabilities
The fair value of assets and liabilities must be estimated in accordance with various Accounting Standards foreither recognition and measurement requirements or for disclosure purposes.
AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement requires all assets and liabilities measured at fair value to be assigned to a"level" in the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
(1) The following table presents all assets and liabilities that have been measured & recognised at fair values:

(2) Transfers between Level 1 & Level 2 Fair Value Hierarchies During the year, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value hierarchies for recurring fair value measurements. (3) Valuation techniques used to derive Level 2 and Level 3 Fair Values Where Council is unable to derive Fair Valuations using quoted market prices of identical assets (ie. Level 1 inputs), Council instead utilises a spread of both observable inputs (Level 2 inputs) and unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). The Fair Valuation techniques Council has employed while utilising Level 2 and Level 3 inputs are as follows: Financial Assets At fair value through profit and loss are represented by Floating Rate Notes, Covered Bonds and Term Deposits. Council obtains valuations from its Investment Advisor on a monthly basis and at the end of each accounting period to ensure the financial statements reflect the most up to date valuation. The valuations of Floating Rate Notes are sourced from UBS based on mid-market prices. That is, valuations are marked at the mid-point of the bid and ask prices in the secondary market. This price represents a general market value for the asset. There has been no change to the valuation techniques during the reporting period. Plant & Equipment, Office Equipment and Furniture & Fittings The purchase cost of Plant & Equipment, Office Equipment and Furniture & Fittings are taken as their fair value. There has been no change to the valuation techniques during the reporting period. Operational Land The valuation of Council's operational land was undertaken at 30 June 2014 by Scott Fullarton Valuations Pty Ltd, FAPI, Certified Practising Valuer, Registration No. VAL2144. Operational land has been valued at market value, having regard to the “highest and best use”, after identifying all elements that would be taken into account by buyers and sellers in settling the price, including but not limited to:
The land’s description and/or dimensions; Planning and other constraints on development; and The potential for alternative use.
Sale prices of comparable land parcels in close proximity were adjusted for differences in key attributes such as size and configuration. The most significant inputs into this valuation approach are price per square metre. Since extensive professional judgements were required to determine the inputs these assets were classified as having been valued using Level 3 valuation inputs. There has been no change to the valuation techniques during the reporting period. Community Land Council's community land was valued based on the Land Value (LV) provided by the Valuer-General in 2012. Where the Valuer-General did not provide LV an average unit rate based on the LV for similar community land

was used, having regard to the highest and best use for the land. There has been no change to the valuation techniques during the reporting period. Land Under Roads Land Under Roads acquired post 1 July 2008 have been valued using the square meter rates of adjacent Community Land having regard to the highest and best use for the land. There has been no change to the valuation techniques during the reporting period. Buildings - Non specialised and Specialised Council's buildings were valued utilising the cost approach by Scott Fullarton Valuations Pty Ltd in June 2014. The approach estimated the replacement cost of each building and componentising of significant parts with different useful lives and taking into account a range of factors. The unit rates could be supported by market evidence (Level 2 inputs), other inputs (such as estimates of residual value, useful life and asset condition) required extensive professional judgement and impacted significantly on the final determination of fair value. As such, these assets have been valued using Level 3 inputs. There has been no change to the valuation techniques during the reporting period. Roads The roads asset class includes roads, defined as the trafficable portion of a road, between but not including the kerb and gutter. It also includes “other roads” assets including Bridges, Carparks, Kerb and Gutter, Traffic facilities and Footpaths. The ‘Cost Approach’ using Level 3 inputs was used to value the road carriageway and other road infrastructure. Valuations for the road carriageway, comprising surface, pavement and formation were based primarily on unit rates derived from the Councils schedule of rates tender. Other inputs (such as estimates pattern of consumption, residual value, asset condition and useful life) required extensive professional judgement and impacted significantly on the final determination of fair value. Additionally due to limitations in the historical records of very long lived assets there some uncertainty regarding the actual design, specifications and dimensions of some assets. There has been no change to the valuation process during the reporting period. Stormwater Drainage Assets within this class comprise pits, pipes, open channels, headwalls and various types of water quality devices. The ‘Cost Approach’ estimated the replacement cost for each asset by componentising the assets into significant parts with different useful lives and taking into account a range of factors. While the unit rates based on linear metres of certain diameter pipes and prices per pit or similar could be supported from market evidence (Level 2) other inputs (such as estimates of pattern of consumption, residual value, asset condition and useful life) required extensive professional judgement and impacted significantly on the final determination of fair value. Additionally due to limitations in the historical records of very long lived assets there is uncertainty regarding the actual design, specifications and dimensions of some assets. There has been no change to the valuation process during the reporting period.

Swimming Pools Assets within this class comprise the Des Renford Leisure Centre Pools and also Councils rockpools. The indoor pool at the aquatic centre was valued by Scott Fullarton in June 2014 using the cost approach, while the outdoor pools at the aquatic centre and rockpools were valued inhouse using the cost approach by experienced Council engineers and asset management staff. The approach estimated the replacement cost for each pool by componentising its significant parts. While some elements of gross replacement values could be supported from market evidence (Level 2 input) other inputs (such as estimates of pattern of consumption, residual value, asset condition and useful life) required extensive professional judgement and impacted significantly on the final determination of fair value. There has been no change to the valuation process during the reporting period. There has been no change to the valuation process during the reporting period. Open Space Assets Assets within this class comprise Tennis Courts, Synthetic Surfaces, BBQs, Regional Sporting Facilities and Playgrounds. All assets in this class were valued in-house by experienced engineering & asset management staff. While some elements of gross replacement values could be supported from market evidence (Level 2 input) other inputs (such as estimates of pattern of consumption, residual value, asset condition and useful life) required extensive professional judgement and impacted significantly on the final determination of fair value.

Background
These Special Purpose Financial Statements have been prepared for the use by both Council and the Division ofLocal Government in fulfilling their requirements under National Competition Policy.
The principle of competitive neutrality is based on the concept of a "level playing field" between persons/entitiescompeting in a market place, particularly between private and public sector competitors.
Essentially, the principle is that government businesses, whether Commonwealth, State or Local, should operatewithout net competitive advantages over other businesses as a result of their public ownership.
For Council, the principle of competitive neutrality & public reporting applies only to declared business activities.
These include (a) those activities classified by the Australian Bureau of Statistics as business activities beingwater supply, sewerage services, abattoirs, gas production and reticulation and (b) those activities with a turnoverof over $2 million that Council has formally declared as a Business Activity (defined as Category 1 activities).
In preparing these financial statements for Council's self classified Category 1 businesses and ABS definedactivities, councils must (a) adopt a corporatisation model and (b) apply full cost attribution including tax equivalentregime payments & debt guarantee fees (where the business benefits from councils borrowing position bycomparison with commercial rates).

Randwick City Council Notes to the Special Purpose Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies
page 10
These financial statements are a Special Purpose Financial Statements (SPFS) prepared for use by Council and the Office of Local Government. For the purposes of these statements, the Council is not a reporting not-for-profit entity. The figures presented in these special purpose financial statements, unless otherwise stated, have been prepared in accordance with: the recognition and measurement criteria of
relevant Australian Accounting Standards,
other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) &
Australian Accounting Interpretations.
The disclosures in these special purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with: the Local Government Act and Regulation, and the Local Government Code of Accounting
Practice and Financial Reporting. The statements are also prepared on an accruals basis, based on historic costs and do not take into account changing money values nor current values of non-current assets (except where specifically stated). Certain taxes and other costs (appropriately described) have been imputed for the purposes of the National Competition Policy. National Competition Policy Council has adopted the principle of ‘competitive neutrality’ to its business activities as part of the national competition policy which is being applied throughout Australia at all levels of government. The framework for its application is set out in the June 1996 Government Policy statement on the “Application of National Competition Policy to Local Government”. The “Pricing & Costing for Council Businesses A Guide to Competitive Neutrality” issued by the Office of Local Government in July 1997 has also been adopted.
The pricing & costing guidelines outline the process for identifying and allocating costs to activities and provide a standard of disclosure requirements. These disclosures are reflected in Council’s pricing and/or financial reporting systems and include taxation equivalents; council subsidies; return on investments (rate of return); and dividends paid. Declared Business Activities In accordance with Pricing & Costing for Council Businesses - A Guide to Competitive Neutrality, Council has declared that the following are to be considered as business activities: Category 1 (where gross operating turnover is over $2 million) a. Property Management
Management of Council owned rental properties b. Aquatic Centre
Des Renford Leisure Centre Category 2 (where gross operating turnover is less than $2 million) a. Child Care
Moverly Children’s Centre b. Community Nursery
Propagate plants for use by Council and sale to outside bodies
c. Trade Waste
Collection and disposal of Trade Waste from commercial premises
Monetary Amounts Amounts shown in the financial statements are in Australian currency and rounded to the nearest one thousand dollars. (i) Taxation Equivalent Charges Council is liable to pay various taxes and financial duties in undertaking its business activities. Where this is the case, they are disclosed in these
SPFS 2014_
Randwick City Council Notes to the Special Purpose Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies
page 11
statements as a cost of operations just like all other costs. However, where Council is exempt from paying taxes which are generally paid by private sector businesses (such as income tax), equivalent tax payments have been applied to all Council nominated business activities and are reflected in these financial statements. For the purposes of disclosing comparative information relevant to the private sector equivalent, the following taxation equivalents have been applied to all council nominated business activities (this does not include council’s non-business activities): Notional Rate Applied % Corporate Income Tax Rate – 30% Land Tax – The first $412,000 of combined land values attracts 0%. From $412,001 to $2,519,000 the rate is 1.6% + $100. For the remaining combined land value that exceeds $2,519,000, a premium marginal rate of 2.0% applies. Payroll Tax – 5.45% on the value of taxable salaries and wages in excess of $750,000. Income Tax An income tax equivalent has been applied on the profits of each reported Business Activity. Whilst income tax is not a specific cost for the purpose of pricing a good or service, it needs to be taken into account of in terms of assessing the rate of return required on capital invested. Accordingly, the return on capital invested is set at a pre-tax level (gain/(loss) from ordinary activities before capital amounts) as would be applied by a private sector competitor – that is, it should include a provision equivalent to the corporate income tax rate, currently 30%. Income Tax is only applied where a positive gain/(loss) from ordinary activities before capital amounts has been achieved. Since this taxation equivalent is notional - that is, it is payable to the “Council” as the owner of business operations, it represents an internal payment and
has no effect on the operations of the council. Accordingly, there is no need for disclosure of internal charges in Council's General Purpose Financial Statements. The rate applied of 30% is the equivalent company tax rate prevalent as at balance date. Local Government Rates & Charges A calculation of the equivalent rates and charges payable on all Category 1 businesses has been applied to all land assets owned or exclusively used by the Business Activity. Loan & Debt Guarantee Fees The debt guarantee fee is designed to ensure that council business activities face “true” commercial borrowing costs in line with private sector competitors. In order to calculate a debt guarantee fee, council has determined what the differential borrowing rate would have been between the commercial rate and the council’s borrowing rate for its business activities. (ii) Subsidies Government policy requires that subsidies provided to customers and the funding of those subsidies must be explicitly disclosed. Subsidies occur where council provides services on a less than cost recovery basis. This option is exercised on a range of services in order for council to meet its community service obligations. Accordingly, Subsidies disclosed (in relation to National Competition Policy) represents the difference between revenue generated from ‘rate of return’ pricing and revenue generated from prices set by the council in any given financial year. The overall effect of subsidies is contained within the Income Statement of each reported Business Activity.

page 12
(iii) Return on Investments (Rate of Return) The Policy statement requires that councils with Category 1 businesses “would be expected to generate a return on capital funds employed that is comparable to rates of return for private businesses operating in a similar field”. Such funds are subsequently available for meeting commitments or financing future investment strategies. The Rate of Return on Capital is calculated as follows: Operating Result before Capital Income + Interest Expense
Written Down Value of I,PP&E as at 30 June As a minimum, business activities should generate a return equal to the Commonwealth 10 year bond rate which is 3.56% at 30/6/14. The actual rate of return achieved by each Business Activity is disclosed at the foot of each respective Income Statement. (iv) Dividends Council is not required to pay dividends to either itself (as owner of a range of businesses) or to any external entities.

Randwick City Council
Special Schedule No. 7 - Report on Infrastructure Assets (continued) for the financial year ended 30 June 2014
―― Minimum 100.00%Source for Benchmark: NSW Treasury Corporation (T-Corp)
―― Maximum .02Source for Benchmark: NSW Treasury Corporation (T-Corp)

―― Minimum 1.10Source for Benchmark: NSW Treasury Corporation (T-Corp)
Purpose of Capital Expenditure Ratio
Commentary on 2013/14 Result
2013/14 Ratio 1.56 x
To assess the extent to which a Council is expanding its asset
base thru capital expenditure on both new assets and the
replacement and renewal of existing
assets.
Council continues not only to have the capacity to maintain its existing assets at a satisfactory condition, but also the capacity
to create new assets for the community.
Compares actual vs. required annual asset maintenance. A ratio above 1.0 indicates Council is investing
enough funds to stop the Infrastructure Backlog growing.
Randwick City Council continues to sufficetnly fund the maintenance of the City's assets. This ensures that these assets are kept in a condition that is
satifactory to the community.
Purpose of Asset Renewals Ratio
Commentary on 2013/14 Result
2013/14 Ratio 122.26%
To assess the rate at which these assets are being renewed
relative to the rate at which they are depreciating.
Randwick City Council continues to grow the rate at which is is renewing its infrastructure. Through very strong
infrastructrue planning and management practices this will continue to be above the
benchmark and continue to reduce the infrastructure backlog.
Purpose of Infrastructure Backlog Ratio
Commentary on 2013/14 Result
2013/14 Ratio 0.01 x
This ratio showswhat proportion the backlog is against
the total valueof a Council’s infrastructure.
The decrease in the infrastructure backlog of Randwick City is correlated to the
increase in the level of asset renewals and asset maintenance ratios.

Notes1 The Notional General Income will not reconcile with rate income in the financial statements in the
corresponding year. The statements are reported on an accrual accounting basis which include amountsthat relate to prior years' rates income.
2 Adjustments account for changes in the number of assessments and any increase or decrease in landvalue occurring during the year. The adjustments are called "supplementary valuations" as defined in theValuation of Land Act 1916.
3 The Special Variation Percentage is inclusive of the Rate Peg percentage and where applicable crown landadjustment.
4 Valuation objections are unexpected changes in land values as a result of land owners successfullyobjecting to the land value issued by the Valuer-General. Councils can claim the value of the income lostdue to valuation objections in any single year.
5 Unused catch-up amounts will be deducted if they are not caught up within 2 years. Usually councils willhave a nominal carry forward figure. These amounts can be adjusted for in setting the rates in a future year.
