Accounting Policy
Equity injections
Amounts appropriated which are designated as ‘equity injections’ for a year (less any formal reductions) and DCBs are recognised directly in contributed equity in that year.
Restructuring of Administrative Arrangements
Net assets received from or relinquished to another Government entity under a restructuring of administrative arrangements are adjusted at their book value directly against contributed equity.
Other Distributions to/from Owners
The Public Governance, Performance and Accountability (Financial Reporting) Rule 2015 (FRR) requires that distributions to owners be debited to contributed equity unless it is in the nature of a dividend.

Collections are transferred to the Official Public Account (OPA), maintained by the Department of Finance. Conversely, cash is drawn from the OPA to make payments under Parliamentary appropriation on behalf of Government. These transfers to and from the OPA are adjustments to the administered cash held by PM&C on behalf of the Government and reported as such in the Administered Cash Flow Statement and in the Administered Reconciliation Schedule.

DEPARTMENT OF THE PRIME MINISTER AND CABINET NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the period ended 30 June 2016
Overview Objectives of the Department The Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (PM&C) is a not-for-profit Australian Government controlled Department of State.
The objective of PM&C is to provide policy advice and support to the Prime Minister, the Cabinet, Portfolio Ministers and Parliamentary Secretaries on matters that are on the forefront of public and government administration.
PM&C is structured to meet two outcomes as outlined below:
Outcome 1: Provide high quality policy advice and support to the Prime Minister, the Cabinet, Portfolio Ministers and Parliamentary Secretaries including through the coordination of government activities, policy development and program delivery.
Outcome 2: Improve results for Indigenous Australians including in relation to school attendance, employment and community safety, through delivering services and programs, and through measures that recognise the special place that Indigenous people hold in this Nation.
In 2015-16 PM&C’s activities were identified under the following programs:
Program 1.1: Prime Minister and Cabinet
• Domestic policy
• National security and international policy
• Support services for Government operations
• Official and ceremonial support
• Women’s policy.
Program 2.1: Indigenous
• Commonwealth Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander policy.
The continued existence of PM&C in its present form and with its present programs is dependent on Government policy and on continuing funding by Parliament for PM&C’s administration and programs.
PM&C’s activities contributing toward these outcomes are classified as either departmental or administered. Departmental activities involve the use of assets, liabilities, income and expenses controlled or incurred by PM&C in its own right. Administered activities involve the management or oversight by PM&C, on behalf of the Government, of items controlled or incurred by the Government.
PM&C conducts the following administered activities on behalf of the Government: • Secretariat support to the National Counter-Terrorism Committee
• Parliament House Briefing Room
• Grant payments to the National Australia Day Council Limited
• Compensation and legal expenses
• Operations support for the Prime Minister’s official residences
• Support to former Governors-General
• State occasions and official visits
• Commonwealth Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander grant programs
• Commonwealth Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander service delivery
• Women’s grant programs.

DEPARTMENT OF THE PRIME MINISTER AND CABINET NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the period ended 30 June 2016
Basis of preparation of the financial statements The financial statements are general purpose financial statements and are required by section 42 of the PGPA Act.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with:
• Public Governance, Performance and Accountability (Financial Reporting) Rule 2015 (FRR) for reporting periods ending on or after 1 July 2015.
• Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that apply for the reporting period.
The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance with the historical cost convention, except where certain assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value. Except where stated, no allowance is made for the effect of changing prices on the results or the financial position. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, and are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars unless otherwise specified.
Except where stated below, administered items are accounted for on the same basis and using the same policies as for departmental items, including the application of Australian Accounting Standards.
Taxation
PM&C is exempt from all forms of taxation except Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT), the Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Mining Withholding Tax (WHT).
New Australian accounting standards Adoption of new Australian Accounting Standard requirements
No accounting standard has been adopted earlier than the application date as stated in the standard.
Other new standards, revised standards, interpretations and amending standards that were issued prior to the sign-off date and are applicable to the current reporting period did not have a material financial impact, and are not expected to have a future material financial impact on PM&C.
Future Australian Accounting Standard requirements
The following new/revised/amending standards and/or interpretations issued by the AASB prior to the sign-off date are expected to have a future material impact on PM&C’s financial statements which are applicable to PM&C for future reporting periods:
Standard/Interpretation Application date Nature of impending changes in accounting policy and likely impact on initial application
AASB 2015-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Extending Related Party Disclosures to Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities [AASB 10, AASB 124 & AASB 1049]
1 July 2016 The amended standard requires not-for-profit public sector entities to provide additional disclosure in relation to related party interactions. PM&C may be required to identify and disclose transactions with key management personnel that occur outside the person’s capacity as an ordinary taxpayer, or that involve a benefit not available to the general public.
AASB 16 Leases 1 July 2019 AASB 16 replaces AASB 117 and other lease-related Interpretations. The new standard requires all leases to be accounted for ‘on balance sheet’ by lessees to better reflect the economics of the transactions. PM&C will be required to assess current lease arrangements and recognise relevant balances as leased assets and liabilities.

Compliance with statutory conditions for payments from the consolidated revenue fund The Australian Government continues to have regard to developments in case law, including the High Court’s most recent decision on Commonwealth expenditure in Williams v Commonwealth [2014] HCA 23, as they contribute to the larger body of law relevant to the development of Commonwealth programs. In accordance with its general practice, the Government will continue to monitor and assess risk and decide on any appropriate actions to respond to risks of expenditure not being consistent with constitutional or other legal requirements.
During 2015-16 PM&C reviewed its exposure to the risk of not complying with statutory conditions on payments from appropriations, namely section 83 of the Constitution. Administered payments of $566.758 million (35% of total administered payments) and departmental payments of $24.591 million (6% of total departmental payments) were subject to additional statutory conditions.
The review identified the following:
• The Aboriginals Benefit Account (ABA) special account – testing of transactions revealed that two payments made from the ABA under section 64(3) of the Aboriginal Land Rights (Northern Territory) Act 1976 (the ALRA), contravened section 83 of the Constitution totalling $0.296 million. Both were technical contraventions, despite the payments having been made in accordance with the requirements of section 64(3) of the ALRA. Of this amount, $0.003 million has been recovered through the reduction of subsequent payments, and $0.293 million will be offset against future payments. Overpayments from previous years of $0.169 million were recovered during the year.
Payments are required to be made out of the ABA based on royalties received by the Northern Territory and Australian Governments. The contraventions occur when the royalties upon which the payments were based had been estimated at a value greater than the eventual actual. Legislation has been prepared, and is awaiting presentation to Parliament, to reduce the risks of non-compliance associated with these payments to an acceptably low level.
• Long Service Leave (Commonwealth Employees) Act 1976 – testing of payments made under this legislation has revealed no breaches of section 83 of the Constitution in 2015-16.
• Superannuation Act 2005 - testing of payments made under this legislation has revealed 193 breaches of section 83 of the Constitution. These relate to contributions to the Public Sector Superannuation accumulation plan (PSSap) that were calculated using an incorrect basis for superannuation salary. PM&C is investigating mechanisms to improve controls over the selection of the superannuation salary basis. The total value of the potential breaches is $0.069 million.
PM&C will continue to monitor its level of compliance with section 83 of the Constitution across all legislation for which it is administratively responsible. Where possible, amendments to legislation will continue to be progressed.
Events after the reporting period Departmental
There are no known events occurring after the reporting period that could impact on the financial statements.
Administered
PM&C, on behalf of the Australian Government, provided a loan facility of $65.000 million to the Indigenous Land Corporation on 1 July 2016, to assist with restructuring of financing activities. The loan agreement was signed in May 2016 and is provided on terms that are more favourable than the borrower would obtain in the market place and therefore a concessional loan discount has been recognised in 2015-16. The $65.000 million loan receivable will be recognised in 2016-17.

Accounting Policy
Leases
Operating lease payments are expensed on a straight-line basis which is representative of the pattern of benefits derived from the leased assets.
The discount rate used is the interest rate implicit in the lease. Leased assets are amortised over the period of the lease.
Lease payments are allocated between the principal component and the interest expense.
PM&C currently has 21 (2015: 24) agreements for the leasing of premises which have provisions requiring the premises to be restored to their original condition at the conclusion of the lease. PM&C has recognised a make good provision to reflect the present value of this obligation.

Accounting Policy
Revenue from rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of contracts at the reporting date. The revenue is recognised when:
• The amount of revenue, stage of completion and transaction costs incurred can be reliably measured.
• The probable economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to PM&C.
The stage of completion of contracts at the reporting date is determined by reference to the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to the estimated total costs of the transaction.
Receivables for goods and services, which have 30 day terms, are recognised at the nominal amounts due less any impairment allowance account. Collectability of debts is reviewed at the end of the reporting period. Allowances are made when collectability of the debt is no longer probable.

Accounting Policy
Resources received free of charge are recognised as revenue when, and only when, a fair value can be reliably determined and the services would have been purchased if they had not been donated. Use of those resources is recognised as an expense. Resources received free of charge are recorded as either revenue or gains depending on their nature.

Total grants 1,231,747 1,218,600 Accounting Policy PM&C administers a number of grants and subsidy schemes on behalf of the Government. Grant liabilities are recognised to the extent that (i) the services required to be performed by the grantee have been performed; or (ii) the grant eligibility criteria have been satisfied, but payments due have not been made. Where grant moneys are paid in advance of performance or eligibility, a prepayment is recognised. Settlement is usually made according to the terms and conditions of each grant. This is usually within 30 days of performance or eligibility. All subsidies are in connection with external parties and are expected to be settled in no more than 12 months. The Indigenous grants and subsidies are driven by five programs that constitute the flexible and need-focused Indigenous Advancement Strategy (IAS):
• Jobs, Land and Economy
• Children and Schooling
• Safety and Wellbeing
• Culture and Capability
• Remote Australia Strategy. Note 2.1D: Finance costs Concessional loan discount 13,848 - Unwinding of discount 456 547 Total finance costs 14,304 547

Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet Annual Report 2015–16
PAGE 106
DEPARTMENT OF THE PRIME MINISTER AND CABINET NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the period ended 30 June 2016
Impairment of non-financial assets A net impairment of $0.919 million is recognised in 2016 (2015: $0.382 million) for property plant and equipment. A revaluation was conducted in 2016 by independent qualified valuers. A net impairment of $0.815 million is recognised in 2016 (2015: $0.036 million) for intangibles. No intangibles are expected to be sold or disposed of within the next 12 months. Contractual commitments for the acquisition of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets Contractual commitments for the acquisition of IT equipment and services of $8.354 million are payable within one year. Accounting Policy
Asset recognition threshold
Purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangibles are recognised initially at cost in the Statement of Financial Position, except for purchases costing less than $5,000, which are expensed in the year of acquisition (other than IT assets where they form part of a group of similar items which are significant in total).
The initial cost of an asset includes an estimate of the cost of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. This is particularly relevant to ‘make good’ provisions in property leases taken up by PM&C where there exists an obligation to restore the asset to its original condition. These costs are included in the value of PM&C's property, plant and equipment with a corresponding provision for the ‘make good’ recognised.
Revaluations
Fair values for each class of asset are determined as shown below:
Asset class Fair value measurement Land Market selling price
Buildings excluding leasehold improvements
Market selling price and depreciated replacement cost
Leasehold improvements Depreciated replacement cost
Property, plant and equipment Market selling price and depreciated replacement cost
All property, plant and equipment assets with an original cost above $5,000 were formally valued in 2016 by independent qualified valuers.
All leasehold improvement assets with an original cost above $50,000 were formally valued in 2016 by independent qualified valuers.
All demountables were formally valued and assessed for useful lives in 2016 by an independent qualified valuer.
Upon revaluation, any accumulated depreciation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the asset restated to the revalued amount.
Intangibles
PM&C’s intangibles comprise internally developed and purchased software for internal use. These assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation/Amortisation
Depreciable property, plant and equipment assets are written-off to their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives to PM&C using, in all cases, the straight-line method of depreciation.
Depreciation rates (useful lives), residual values and methods are reviewed at each reporting date and necessary adjustments are recognised in the current, or current and future reporting periods, as appropriate.
Depreciation rates applying to each class of depreciable asset are based on the following total useful lives for the current and prior reporting periods:
Buildings excluding leasehold improvements 6 to 50 years
Leasehold improvements Lease term
Property, plant and equipment 1 to 50 years
Intangibles 2 to 7 years

DEPARTMENT OF THE PRIME MINISTER AND CABINET NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the period ended 30 June 2016
Accounting Policy (continued)
Impairment
All assets were assessed for impairment during 2016.
Where indications of impairment exist, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment adjustment made if the asset’s recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount.
Derecognition
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.

Administered investments other than those held for sale are classified as available for sale and are measured at their fair value as at 30 June 2016. Fair value has been taken to be the Australian Government's proportional interest in the net assets as advised by the entities as at the end of the reporting period.

6. People This section describes a range of employment and post employment benefits provided to our people.
Employee Provisions 6.1. 2016 2015 $'000 $'000 Note 6.1A: Employee provisions Annual leave 25,073 25,680 Long service leave 51,178 47,078 Total employee provisions 76,251 72,758
Employee provisions expected to be settled
No more than 12 months 21,684 21,926 More than 12 months 54,567 50,832
Total employee provisions 76,251 72,758 Accounting policy and significant accounting judgements
Employee benefits
Liabilities for ‘short-term employee benefits’ and termination benefits due within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are measured at their nominal amounts.
Leave
The liability for employee benefits includes provision for annual leave and long service leave. No provision has been made for sick leave as all sick leave is non-vesting and the average sick leave taken in future years by employees of PM&C is estimated to be less than the annual entitlement for sick leave.
The leave liabilities are calculated on the basis of employees’ remuneration at the estimated salary rates that will be applied at the time the leave is taken, including PM&C’s employer superannuation contribution rates to the extent that the leave is likely to be taken during service rather than paid out on termination.
The liability for long service leave has been determined by reference to the work of an actuary as at 30 June 2015. The estimate of the present value of the liability takes into account attrition rates and pay increases through promotion and inflation.
Separation and redundancy
A liability is made for separation and redundancy benefit payments. PM&C recognises a liability for termination when it has developed a detailed formal plan for the terminations and has informed those employees affected that it will carry out the terminations.
Superannuation
PM&C's staff are members of the Commonwealth Superannuation Scheme (CSS), the Public Sector Superannuation Scheme (PSS), the PSS accumulation plan (PSSap) or another fund of their choice.
The CSS and PSS are defined benefit schemes for the Australian Government. The PSSap is a defined contribution scheme.
The liability for defined benefits is recognised in the financial statements of the Australian Government and is settled by the Australian Government in due course. This liability is reported in the Department of Finance’s administered schedules and notes.
PM&C makes employer contributions to the employees' superannuation scheme. For Commonwealth defined benefits schemes, these rates are determined by an actuary to be sufficient to meet the current cost to the Government. PM&C accounts for the contributions as if they were contributions to defined contribution plans.
The liability for superannuation recognised as at 30 June represents outstanding contributions for the final fortnight of the year.

Accounting Policy
Former Governors-General benefits
PM&C has responsibility for the administration of non-cash benefits provided to former Governors-General. These entitlements are regarded as post-employment benefits and represent the provision of office facilities, administrative support and transport. A future liability for these benefits is recognised in the administered accounts.
Significant accounting judgements and estimates
The provision for non-cash former Governors-General entitlements relate to post-employment benefits such as office facilities, administrative support and transport. The future liability for these benefits is based on the actuarial assessment determined by the Australian Government Actuary.

7. Managing Uncertainties This section analyses how the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet manages financial risks within its operating environment.
Contingent Assets and Liabilities 7.1.Note 7.1A: Contingent assets and liabilities Unquantifiable contingent liabilities - claims for damages and costs Proceedings have commenced against the Australian Government by former residents of the Retta Dixon Home in the Northern Territory. The outcome of that litigation cannot be predicted (2015: Nil). Accounting Policy
Contingent liabilities and contingent assets are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position but are reported in the relevant schedules and notes. They may arise from uncertainty as to the existence of a liability or asset, or represent an asset or liability in respect of which the amount cannot be reliably measured. Contingent assets are disclosed when settlement is probable but not virtually certain and contingent liabilities are disclosed when the probability of settlement is greater than remote.
Note 7.1B: Administered contingent assets and liabilities Quantifiable contingent liabilities - claims for damages and costs The Australian Government has appealed a decision by the Federal Court requiring the payment of a grant to the Machado Joseph Disease (MJD) Foundation in the amount of $10.000 million. An outcome is expected to be known early in 2016-17, however it is not possible to determine the financial effect of the outcome on other grants at this time. (2015: Nil).
Financial Instruments 7.2. 2016 2015 $'000 $'000 Note 7.2A: Categories of financial instruments Financial assets Loans and receivables

Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet Annual Report 2015–16
PAGE 132
DEPARTMENT OF THE PRIME MINISTER AND CABINET NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the period ended 30 June 2016
Note 7.2D: Credit risk PM&C is exposed to minimal credit risk as loans and receivables are comprised of cash, goods and services receivable and accrued revenue. The maximum exposure to credit risk is the risk that arises from potential default of a debtor. This amount is equal to the total amount of these outstanding receivables, 2016: $4.442 million (2015: $1.763 million). PM&C has assessed the risk of the default on payment and has allocated $0.112 million to an impairment allowance account (2015: $0.078 million). PM&C holds no collateral to mitigate against credit risk. Note 3.1A provides aging of gross receivables past due and an analysis of impaired receivables.
Note 7.2E: Liquidity risk PM&C’s financial liabilities are suppliers and grants payable. The exposure to liquidity risk is based on the notion that the Department will encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations associated with financial liabilities. This is highly unlikely due to appropriation funding and mechanisms available to the Department (e.g. Advance to the Finance Minister) and internal policies and procedures put in place to ensure there are appropriate resources to meet its financial obligations. The maturities for non-derivative financial liabilities of PM&C are within one year in both the current and prior years.
Note 7.2F: Market risk PM&C holds basic financial instruments that do not expose the Department to interest risk, currency risk or other price risk.
Accounting Policy
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period.
Financial liabilities
Supplier and other payables are recognised at amortised cost. Liabilities are recognised to the extent that the goods or services have been received (and irrespective of having been invoiced).
Financial liabilities are recognised and derecognised upon ‘trade date’.
Significant accounting judgements and estimates
The relevant government bond rate has been used to discount non-current liabilities.

Note 7.3D: Credit risk The administered activities of PM&C are not exposed to a high level of credit risk as the majority of financial assets are cash and cash equivalents, and trade receivables. The maximum amount of credit risk is the risk that arises from potential default of a debtor. This amount is equal to the amount of these outstanding trade receivables, 2016: $0.014 million (2015: $0.072 million). PM&C has assessed the risk of the default on payment of receivables and has allocated amounts to an impairment allowance in relation to grant receivables, 2016: $8.606 million (2015: $11.473 million). PM&C holds no collateral to mitigate against administered credit risk. PM&C has no significant exposures to any concentrations of credit risk.

Note 7.3E: Liquidity risk PM&C’s administered financial liabilities are supplier and grant payables and a concesional loan comittment. The exposure to liquidity risk is based on the notion that PM&C will encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations associated with administered financial liabilities. This is highly unlikely due to appropriation funding and mechanisms available to PM&C (e.g. Advance to the Finance Minister) and internal policies and procedures put in place to ensure there are appropriate resources to meet its financial obligations. The ATSILA has sufficient capital base available to meet its obligations when they fall due. The ABA investment policy ensures sufficient cash is available to meet payments as they fall due. All non-derivative financial liabilities are expected to mature within one year.
Note 7.3F: Market risk PM&C holds basic financial instruments, available for sale and held-to-maturity investments that do not expose the entity to certain market risks. PM&C is not exposed to currency risk, other price risk or interest rate risk.
Accounting Policy
Financial assets
PM&C classifies its financial assets in the following categories:
• Held-to-maturity investments
• Available for sale financial assets
• Loans and receivables.
All financial assets are expected to be recovered within 12 months except where indicated.
Interest is recognised by applying the effective interest rate.
Loans and receivables
Where loans and receivables are not subject to concessional treatment, they are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses due to impairment, derecognition and amortisation are recognised through the Administered Schedule of Comprehensive Income.

Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet Annual Report 2015–16
PAGE 138
DEPARTMENT OF THE PRIME MINISTER AND CABINET NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the period ended 30 June 2016 1 Recurring and non-recurring Level 3 fair value measurements - valuation process PM&C procured valuation services from valuation experts and relied on the valuations made by these experts in 2016. The experts provided written assurance that the models developed to value assets are in compliance with accounting standards. PM&C tests the procedures of the valuation model as an internal management review at least once every 12 months. PM&C has a rolling revaluation plan in place which ensures all assets are formally revalued at least once every three to five years. If a particular asset class experiences significant and volatile changes in fair value (i.e. where indicators suggest that the value of the class has changed materially since the previous reporting period), that class is subject to specific valuation in the reporting period, where practicable, regardless of the timing of the last specific valuation.
The valuation technique for portable building assets has changed during the year from the replacement cost method to the adjusted market transaction method. This change is due to the downturn in the mining industry increasing the number of portable building assets currently available for sale and therefore providing a better basis to measure fair value.
Assets that do not transact with enough frequency or transparency to develop objective opinions of value from observable market evidence have been measured utilising the cost (Depreciated Replacement Cost or DRC) approach. Professional judgement has been applied in calculating the consumed economic benefit/asset obsolescence relevant to the asset under consideration.
3 Assets held for sale PM&C is currently marketing 20 residential properties (staff housing) that are no longer essential to operational requirements. The assets are measured at the lesser of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell and are valued at a non-recurring basis. All other assets are valued on a recurring basis.
2 Fair value measurement - highest and best use PM&C's assets are held for operational purposes and not held for the purposes of deriving a profit. The current use of all controlled assets is considered their highest and best use.
Significant accounting judgements and estimates
The fair value of land and buildings and property, plant and equipment has been taken to be the market value of similar properties as determined by an independent qualified valuer. Where an active market does not exist these assets are valued at their replacement cost as determined by an independent qualified valuer.
