(a) Grants committed not paid
Under previous NZ GAAP Grants committed not paid were recognised at the undiscounted costs of discharging the grant commitment.
Under NZ IFRS all Grants committed not paid are initially recognised at fair value, and subsequently measured at amortised costs using the effective interest rate. This has the effect of discounting the Grants committed not paid at initial recognition. The discount unwinds as interest expense over the remaining periods until the Grant is paid using the original effective interest rate.
23. EVENTS AFTER BALANCE DATE
Subsequent to balance date the continued decline of the New Zealand and international securities markets, as a result of events associated with the global credit crunch, has resulted in the fair value of the Trust’s investments reducing by approximately $11 million as at 31 October 2008.
In line with the Trust’s currency management policy, following the fall in the New Zealand dollar the Trustees have as at 6th November 2008 implemented full hedging against all non Australian international equities, against future currency movements. Consistent with the Trust’s currency management policy, the application of future hedging will vary to reflect movements in the New Zealand dollar.
