NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br />
30 JUNE <strong>2017</strong><br />
22. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES<br />
(c) New accounting standards and interpretations (continued)<br />
- Revenue from Contracts with Customers (effective 1 January 2018 / applicable for <strong>Group</strong> 1 July 2018)<br />
AASB15 replaces the current revenue recognition standards AASB 111 Construction Contracts, AASB 118<br />
Revenue and related Interpretations.<br />
AASB 15 specifies the accounting treatment for revenue arising from contracts with customers (except for<br />
contracts within the scope of other accounting standards such as leases or financial instruments). The core<br />
principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services<br />
to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in<br />
exchange for those goods or services.<br />
Early adoption of this Standard is permitted.<br />
The <strong>Group</strong> has undertaken an analysis to scope out its revenue streams to identify specific impacts of the<br />
Standard. The revenue streams identified are:<br />
- Rental / hotel income<br />
- Finance income<br />
- Fee income<br />
- Sale of inventory<br />
The majority of the <strong>Group</strong>’s revenue streams have application under other relevant standards and therefore,<br />
application of AASB 15 does not apply (rental income, finance income). Where the Standard does apply, the<br />
<strong>Group</strong> has assessed that there will be no change to the recognition or measurement of revenue upon<br />
application of the Standard or has considered that the impact to the <strong>Group</strong>’s results to be immaterial.<br />
- Leases (effective 1 January 2019 / applicable for <strong>Group</strong> 1 July 2019)<br />
AASB 16 supersedes: AASB 117 Leases and associated interpretations.<br />
The key features of AASB 16 are as follows:<br />
Lessee accounting<br />
- Lessees are required to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12<br />
months, unless the underlying asset of low value<br />
- A lessee measures right-of-use assets similarly to other non-financial assets and lease liabilities<br />
similarly to other financial liabilities<br />
- Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. The<br />
measurement includes non-cancellable lease payments (including inflation-linked payments), and<br />
also includes payments to be made in optional periods if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise<br />
an option to extend the lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease<br />
- AASB 16 contains disclosure requirements for lessees<br />
Lessor accounting<br />
- AASB 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in AASB 117.<br />
Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to<br />
account for those two types of leases differently<br />
- AABB 16 also requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors that will improve information<br />
disclosed about a lessor’s risk exposure, particularly to residual value risk<br />
Early adoption is permitted, provided the new revenue standard, AASB15 Revenue from Contracts with<br />
Customers, has been applied, or is applied at the same date as AASB 16.<br />
The <strong>Group</strong> has entered into a Net Lease Proposal and upon execution of the Lease Agreement, the <strong>Group</strong><br />
will review the terms and consider its impact.<br />
