Provisions<br />

A provision is recognised if, as a result <strong>of</strong> a past event, the <strong>Authority</strong> has a present legal or<br />

constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow <strong>of</strong><br />

economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect <strong>of</strong> the time value <strong>of</strong><br />

money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a<br />

pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments <strong>of</strong> the time value <strong>of</strong> money and the risks<br />

specific to the liability.<br />

Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage <strong>of</strong> time is recognised<br />

as finance costs.<br />

Contributed equity<br />

The <strong>Authority</strong> receives support from the WA Government. The amount received is recognised<br />

directly as a credit to contributed equity.<br />

(q)<br />

New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted<br />

No new amendments to standards and interpretations have been identified which may impact<br />

the entity in the period <strong>of</strong> initial application.<br />
