NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br />

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010<br />

A$’000<br />

FUND<br />

Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where<br />

necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by<br />

the Fund.<br />

Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of<br />

subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated<br />

statement of comprehensive income and balance<br />

sheet respectively.<br />

Transactions and balances<br />

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the<br />

functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at<br />

the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and<br />

losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and<br />

from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary<br />

assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are<br />

recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.<br />

Associates<br />

Associates are all entities over which the Fund has<br />

significant influence but not control, generally accompanying<br />

a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting<br />

rights. Investments in associates are accounted for in the<br />

consolidated financial statements using the equity method<br />

of accounting, after initially being recognised at cost.<br />

The Fund’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits<br />

or losses is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive<br />

Income, and its share of post-acquisition movements in<br />

reserves is recognised in reserves. The cumulative postacquisition<br />

movements are adjusted against the carrying<br />

amount of the investment. Dividends receivable from<br />

associates reduce the carrying amount of the investment.<br />

When the Fund’s share of losses in an associate equals<br />

or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any<br />

other unsecured long-term receivables, the Fund does not<br />

recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations<br />

or made payments on behalf of the associate. Unrealised<br />

gains on transactions between the Fund and its associates<br />

are eliminated to the extent of the Fund’s interest in the<br />

associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the<br />

transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset<br />

transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been<br />

changed where necessary to ensure consistency within the<br />

policies adopted by the Fund.<br />

d) Segment reporting<br />

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent<br />

with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating<br />

Decision makers being the board of directors and senior<br />

executives, essentially a management approach AASB 8<br />

Operating Segments has been adopted by the Fund from 1 July<br />

2009 and comparatives have been restated.<br />

e) Foreign currency translation<br />

Functional and presentation currency<br />

Items included in the financial statements of each of the<br />

Fund’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary<br />

economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the<br />

functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements<br />

are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Fund’s<br />

functional and presentation currency.<br />

Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and<br />

liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or<br />

loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value<br />

gain or loss.<br />

Fund companies<br />

The results and financial position of all of the subsidiaries of<br />

the Fund that have a functional currency different from the<br />

presentation currency are translated into the presentation<br />

currency as follows:<br />

> > Assets and liabilities for each Balance Sheet presented<br />

are translated at the closing rate at the date of that<br />

balance sheet;<br />

> > Income and expenses for each Statement of<br />

Comprehensive Income are translated at average<br />

exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable<br />

approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates<br />

prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case<br />

income and expenses are translated at the dates of the<br />

transactions); and<br />

> > All resulting exchange differences are recognised as a<br />

separate component of equity.<br />

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition<br />

of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the<br />

foreign entities and translated at the closing rate.<br />

f) Revenue recognition<br />

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration<br />

received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net<br />

of discounts and refunds.<br />

The Fund recognises revenue when the amount of revenue<br />

can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic<br />

benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been<br />

met for each of the Fund’s activities as described below. The<br />

amount of revenue is not considered to be reliably measurable<br />

until all contingencies relating to the sale have been resolved.<br />

The Fund bases its estimates on historical results, taking into<br />

consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction<br />

and the specifics of each arrangement.
