STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)<br />
date of<br />
standard*<br />
AASB 13 Fair Value<br />
Measurement<br />
72<br />
judgements made by<br />
management to determine<br />
whether control exists, and to<br />
require summarised information<br />
about joint arrangements,<br />
associates and structured entities<br />
and subsidiaries with noncontrolling<br />
interests.<br />
AASB 13 establishes a single<br />
source of guidance for<br />
determining the fair value of<br />
assets and liabilities. AASB 13<br />
does not change when an entity<br />
is required to use fair value, but<br />
rather, provides guidance on<br />
how to determine fair value<br />
when fair value is required or<br />
permitted. Application of this<br />
definition may result in different<br />
fair values being determined for<br />
the relevant assets.<br />
AASB 119 Employee Benefits<br />
AASB 13 also expands the<br />
disclosure requirements for all<br />
assets or liabilities carried at fair<br />
value. This includes information<br />
about the assumptions made<br />
and the qualitative impact of<br />
those assumptions on the fair<br />
value determined.<br />
The main change introduced by<br />
this standard is to revise the<br />
accounting for defined benefit<br />
plans. The amendment removes<br />
the options for accounting for<br />
the liability, and requires that the<br />
liabilities arising from such plans is<br />
recognized in full with actuarial<br />
gains and losses being<br />
recognized in other<br />
comprehensive income. It also<br />
revised the method of<br />
calculating the return on plan<br />
assets. The revised standard<br />
changes the definition of shortterm<br />
employee benefits. The<br />
distinction between short-term<br />
and other long-term employee<br />
benefits is now based on<br />
whether the benefits are<br />
expected to be settled wholly<br />
within 12 months after the<br />
<strong>report</strong>ing date.<br />
