Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2002

1. Statement of Accounting Policies

Reporting Entity

The Community Trust of Mid & South Canterbury Inc. is a charitable trust incorporated under the Trustee Banks Restructuring Act 1988. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Act 1993 and generally accepted accounting policies.

General Accounting Policies

The general accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are:

  • The measurement base adopted is that of historical cost, except for the revaluation of investments. Reliance is placed on the fact that the trust is a going concern.
  • The matching of revenues earned and expenses incurred using accrual accounting.

Particular Accounting Policies

The following are the particular accounting policies which have a material effect on the measurement of results and financial position:

(a) Dividend Income

Dividend income is included in the consolidated statement of financial performance when it is received.

(b) Donations

Donations, special projects and community loans are accounted for when they are distributed.

(c) Investments

Investments held as managed funds are shown at market value. Net income including unrealised gains or losses from holding such investments are recorded in the consolidated statement of financial performance.

(d) Trust Capital

Trust capital is made up of:

(i) Capital fund – which records initial capital fund (being the realised value of trust bank shares).
(ii) Inflation reserve – it is intended to increase the inflation reserve each year by applying the consumer price index to the sum of the initial capital fund and opening inflation reserve. The amount is to be allocated from trust profit on an annual basis. There is insufficient profit to allow this action to occur in the current year.
(iii) Uncommitted surplus represents the balance of any profit remaining.

(e) Basis of Consolidation

The Community Trust of Mid & South Canterbury Inc. and its subsidiary the Trust Bank South Canterbury Community Trust Charities Limited have been consolidated using the purchase method of consolidation.

Changes in Accounting Policies

(a) While the trust has not changed its policy with respect to the capital and reserves of the trust, unfortunately there is insufficient profit to increase the inflation reserve by the level of inflation.

(b) There have been no other changes in accounting policy.
