FINANCIALS 2018 The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. The following are the critical judgements that management has made in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements: When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. 4.1 Employee entitlements Management judgement is applied in determining the following key assumptions used in the calculation of long service leave at balance date: • future increases in wages and salaries; • future on-cost rates; and • experience of employee departures and period of service including future years in which long service leave is expected to be taken. p) Unearned income The liability for unearned income is the unutilised amounts of grants received on the condition that specified services are delivered or conditions are fulfilled. The services are usually provided or the conditions usually fulfilled within 12 months of receipt of the grant. Where the amount received is in respect of services to be provided over a period that exceeds 12 months after the reporting date or the conditions will only be satisfied more than 12 months after the reporting date, the liability is discounted and presented as non-current. 4.2 Leasehold improvements As described at 3(a) above, the Company reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. 4.3 Impairment In assessing impairment, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of each asset based on the depreciable replacement cost in accordance with AASB 136 Impairment of assets. q) Comparatives Comparatives have been realigned where necessary, to agree with current year presentation. There was no change in the profit or net assets. 4.4 Impairment of trade and other receivables The Company has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue. The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition of the respective financial instrument. 4. Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 4.5 Make good provision Provisions for make good are included, where applicable, using the present value of anticipated costs for future restoration of leased premises. The provision includes future cost estimates associated with closure of the premises. 19 KU 20 18
