YMAC Annual Report 2022

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
as at 30 June 2022
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
1.13. Property, Plant and Equipment (continued)
Impairment
All assets were assessed for impairment at 30 June 2022. Where indications of impairment
exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment adjustment made if
the asset’s recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount.
The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its
value in use. Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived
from the asset. Where the future economic benefit of an asset is not primarily dependent on
the asset’s ability to generate cash flows, and the asset would be replaced if the YMAC were
deprived of the asset; its value in use is taken to be its depreciated replacement cost.
Decommissioning, Restoration and Make-good
When assessing accommodation leases for the preparation of the opening balance sheet, no
obligations under the leases for make-good were determined.
In relation to non-financial assets, YMAC has assessed at the reporting date that there is no
obligation for decommissioning, restoration or make good.
1.14. Taxation
YMAC is exempt from all forms of taxation except fringe benefits tax and the goods and
services tax (GST).
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of GST except:
• where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation
Office; and
• for receivables and payables.
1.15. Comparatives
Where necessary, the prior year comparatives have been amended to facilitate comparison
with the current year presentation of financial information.
1.16. Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Corporation’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make
judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions
are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant.
Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions
are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is
revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future
periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
