<strong>CITY</strong> <strong>OF</strong> <strong>GREATER</strong> <strong>GEELONG</strong> STANDARD STATEMENTS<br />

NOTES TO STANDARD BALANCE SHEET<br />

The Balance Sheet highlights that Council has a very<br />

strong asset position with over $1.3 billion worth of<br />

assets which are used to provide services to the<br />

community.<br />

Variances to Budget<br />

The major variance to budget is the increase in noncurrent<br />

assets of $22.7M. The main factors were:<br />

> Difference in Budgeted Property Plant and Equipment<br />

at 1-07-<strong>2007</strong> compared to Actual Property Plant and<br />

Equipment at 1-07-<strong>2007</strong> (ie. difference is the<br />

underspend in capital in the 2006-<strong>2007</strong> year).<br />

> The effect of the revaluation of Council Owned Land<br />

and Buildings $50.0M.<br />

Current assets were $18.1M favourable to budget with<br />

an increase in cash due to lower than budgeted capital<br />

expenditure and a higher than budgeted 1 July <strong>2007</strong><br />

cash position. Receivables were also higher due to<br />

invoices being raised for grants in relation to the two<br />

aquatic centres.<br />

Non-current liabilities were $4.9M under budget mainly<br />

due to the deferral of loan amounts associated with the<br />

Leisurelink Replacement facility.<br />
