VENTURE TARANAKI TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2015
1. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REPORTING ENTITY
Venture Taranaki Trust is a wholly owned
subsidiary of New Plymouth District Council
and is a Council Controlled Organisation
as defined in Part 1 Section 6 of the Local
Government Act 2002, and a Charitable
Trust incorporated in New Zealand under
a Trust Deed dated 27 May 1998 and is
domiciled in New Zealand. The Trust
commenced operations on 1 July 1998.
The Trust has designated itself as a public
benefit entity (PBE) for financial reporting
purposes.
The financial statements of the Trust are for
the year ended 30 June 2015. The financial
statements were authorised by the Board
for issue on 1 September 2015.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The financial statements have been
prepared on the going concern basis, and
the accounting policies have been applied
consistently throughout the period.
Statement of compliance
The financial statements of the Trust have
been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting practice in New
Zealand (NZ GAAP).
The financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with Tier 2 PBE
accounting standards. The Trust qualifies
for Tier 2 reporting on the basis that it is not
publicly accountable and is not considered
large under the PBE accounting standards.
These financial statements comply with PBE
Standards.
These financial statements are the
first financial statements presented in
accordance with the new PBE accounting
standards. There have been no material
adjustments arising on transition to the new
PBE accounting standards.
Presentation currency and rounding
The financial statements are presented
in New Zealand dollars and all values are
rounded to the nearest dollar.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
• Revenue
Revenue is measured at fair value.
The specific accounting policies for
significant revenue items are explained
below:
Government grants
Grants received from the New Plymouth
District Council are the primary source
of funding to the Trust and are restricted
for the purposes of the Trust meeting
its objectives as specified in the Trust’s
trust deed. The Trust also receives other
government assistance for specific
purposes, and these grants usually
contain restrictions on their use.
Council, government, and
non-government grants are recognised
as non-exchange revenue when they
become receivable unless there is
an obligation to return the funds if
conditions of the grant are not met. If
there is such an obligation, the grants
are initially recorded as grants received
in advance and recognised as revenue
when conditions of the grant are
satisfied.
Interest income
Interest income is recognised using the
effective interest method.
• Foreign currency transactions
Foreign currency transactions are
translated into NZ$ (the functional
currency) using the spot exchange rate
at the date of the transactions. Foreign
exchange gains and losses resulting
from the settlement of such transactions
and from the translation at year end
exchange rates of monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognised in the surplus
or deficit.
• Leases – Operating Leases
An operating lease is a lease that does
not transfer substantially all the risks
and rewards incidental to ownership of
an asset.
Lease payments under an operating
lease are recognised as an expense on a
straight line basis over the lease term.
• Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include cash
on hand and deposits held at call with
banks and other short term highly liquid
investments with original maturities of
three months or less.
• Receivables
Trade and other receivables are initially
measured at fair value and subsequently
at fair value less any provision for
impairment. The amount of impairment
is the difference between the carrying
amount of the receivable and the
present value of the amounts expected
to be collected which is determined
on an analysis of the Trust’s losses in
previous periods and review of specific
debtors. All receivables are assessed as
a non-exchange as these balances relate
to grants to be received by the Trust
from government entities.
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 are
included in current assets, except for
maturities greater than 12 months after
the balance date, which are included in
non-current assets.
After initial recognition, they are
measured at amortised cost, using
the effective interest method, less
impairment. Gains and losses when the
asset is impaired or derecognised are
recognised in the surplus or deficit.
VENTURE TARANAKI ANNUAL REPORT 2015
34
VENTURE TARANAKI TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
CONTINUED
For the year ended 30 June 2015
1. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTINUED
Loans to community organisations made
at nil or below-market interest rates are
initially recognised at the present value
of their expected future cash flows,
discounted at the current market rate of
return for a similar financial instrument.
The difference between the face value
and present value of the expected future
cash flows of the loan is recognised in
the surplus or deficit as a grant expense.
The loans are subsequently measured
at amortised cost using the effective
interest method.
• Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for
evidence of impairment at each balance
date. Impairment losses are recognised
in the surplus or deficit.
• Intangibles
Software acquisition
Acquired computer software licenses
are capitalised on the basis of the costs
incurred to acquire and bring to use the
specific software. Staff training costs
are recognised as an expense when
incurred.
Costs associated with maintaining
computer software are recognised as an
expense when incurred.
Costs associated with development
and improvements of the Venture
Taranaki and Energy Stream websites are
recognised as an asset when incurred as
the websites generate future economic
benefits.
Amortisation
Computer software licenses are
amortised on a straight-line basis over
their estimated useful life of two and a
half years. Amortisation begins when the
asset is available for use and ceases at
the date when the asset is disposed of.
The amortisation charge for each year is
recognised in surplus or deficit.
• Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are
stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses.
Additions
The cost of an item of property, plant,
and equipment is recognised as an asset
only when it is probable that service
potential associated with the item will
flow to the Trust and the cost of the
item can be measured reliably. In most
instances, an item of property, plant,
and equipment is initially recognised
at its cost. Where an asset is acquired
at no cost, or for a nominal cost, it is
recognised at its fair value when control
over the asset is obtained.
Disposals
Gains and losses on disposals are
determined by comparing the disposal
proceeds with the carrying amount of
the asset. Gains and losses on disposals
are presented net in the surplus or
deficit.
Subsequent costs
Costs incurred subsequent to initial
acquisition are capitalised only when
it is probable that service potential
associated with the item will flow to the
Trust and the cost of the item can be
measured reliably. The costs of day-to-
day servicing of property, plant, and
equipment are recognised as an expense
as they are incurred.
Depreciation
Depreciation is provided on a straight
line basis at rates calculated to allocate
the assets cost less estimated residual
value, over the estimated useful life of
the asset.
Major depreciation periods are:
- Leasehold alterations 10 years
- Fixtures and fittings
10 years
- Office equipment
3-10 years
- Motor vehicles
3 years
- Other fixed assets
4-10 years
The residual value and useful life of
an asset are reviewed, and adjusted if
applicable, at each financial year end.
• Impairment of property, plant, and
equipment and intangible assets
Property, plant, and equipment and
intangible assets are reviewed for
indicators of impairment as at each
balance date. When there is an indicator
of impairment, the asset’s recoverable
amount is estimated. The recoverable
amount is the higher of an asset’s fair
value less costs to sell and value in use.
• Payables
Trade and other payables are stated
at cost. Trade and other payables are
non-interest bearing and are normally
settled on 30 day terms, therefore
the carrying value of trade and other
payables approximates their fair value.
All accounts payable are assessed as an
exchange as these valances arose from
transactions carried at normal business
terms.
• Employee entitlements
Short-term employee entitlements
Employee benefits that are due to be
settled within 12 months after the end
of the period in which the employee
renders the related service are measured
at nominal values based on accrued
entitlements at current rates of pay.
These include salaries and wages
accrued up to balance date, annual
leave earned to but not yet taken at
balance date, and sick leave.
A liability for sick leave is recognised to
the extent that absences in the coming
year are expected to be greater than the
sick leave entitlements earned in the
coming year. The amount is calculated
based on the unused sick leave
entitlement that can be carried forward
at balance date, to the extent that it will
be used by staff to cover those future
absences.
VENTURE TARANAKI ANNUAL REPORT 2015
35
Presentation of employee entitlements
Sick leave, annual leave, and vested long
service leave are classified as a current
liability. Non-vested long service leave
and retirement gratuities expected to
be settled within 12 months of balance
date are classified as a current liability.
All other employee entitlements are
classified as a non-current liability.
• Provisions
The Trust recognises a provision for
future expenditure of uncertain amount
or timing when there is a present
obligation (either legal or constructive)
as a result of a past event, it is probable
that expenditures will be required to
settle the obligation and a reliable
estimate can be made of the amount
of the obligation. Provisions are not
recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present
value of the expenditures expected to
be required to settle the obligation using
a pre-tax discount rate that reflects
current market assessments of the time
value of money and the risks specific
to the obligation. The increase in the
provision due to the passage of time is
recognised in “finance costs”.
• Goods and Services Tax (GST)
All items in the financial statements
are presented exclusive of goods and
service tax (GST), except for receivables
and payables, which are presented on
a GST inclusive basis. Where GST is
not recoverable as input tax, then it is
recognised as part of the related asset
or expense. The net amount of GST
recoverable from, or payable to, the
IRD is included as part of receivables or
payables in the statement of financial
position.
The net GST paid to, or received from
the IRD, including the GST relating to
investing and financing activities, is
classified as a net operating cash flow in
the statement of cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are
disclosed exclusive of GST.
• Income Tax
Income tax expense includes
components relating to both current tax
and deferred tax.
Current tax is the amount of income tax
payable based on the taxable profit for
the current year, plus any adjustments
to income tax payable in respect of prior
years. Current tax is calculated using
tax rates (and tax laws) that have been
enacted or substantively enacted at
balance date.
Deferred tax is the amount of income tax
payable or recoverable in future periods
in respect of temporary differences
and unused tax losses. Temporary
differences are differences between the
carrying amount of assets and liabilities
in the statement of financial position and
the corresponding tax bases used in the
computation of taxable profit.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates
that are expected to apply when the
asset is realised or the liability is settled,
based on tax rates (and tax laws) that
have been enacted or substantively
enacted at balance date. The
measurement of deferred tax reflects the
tax consequences that would follow from
the manner in which the entity expects
to recover or settle the carrying amount
of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally
recognised for all taxable temporary
differences. Deferred tax assets are
recognised to the extent that it is
probable that taxable profits will be
available against which the deductible
temporary differences or tax losses can
be utilised.
Deferred tax is not recognised if the
temporary difference arises from the
initial recognition of goodwill or from the
initial recognition of an asset or liability
in a transaction that is not a business
combination, and at the time of the
transaction, affects neither accounting
profit nor taxable profit.
Current and deferred tax is recognised
against the surplus or deficit for the
period, except to the extent that it
relates to a business combination, or
to transactions recognised in other
comprehensive revenue and expense or
directly in equity.
• Critical accounting estimates and
assumptions
In preparing these financial statements,
estimates and assumptions have
been made concerning the future.
These estimates and assumptions
may differ from the subsequent actual
results. Estimates and assumptions are
continually evaluated and are based on
historical experience and other factors,
including expectations or future events
that are believed to be reasonable under
the circumstances.
