The Eastern and Central Community Trust Inc. is primarily involved in the management of the investment of assets and the distribution of donations to the community within a designated lower North Island region of New Zealand.
- BASIS OF PREPARATION
a) Statement of Compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice ("NZ GAAP"). They comply with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards ("NZ IFRS"), and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards, as appropriate for public benefit entities.
The financial statements were approved by the Board of Trustees on 27th May 2011.

c) Functional and Presentation Currency
These financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars ($), which is the Trust's functional currency. All financial information has been rounded to the nearest dollar.
d) Use of Key Estimates and Judgements
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of the income and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on market conditions and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgement and therefore, can not be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Judgements are made by management in the application of NZ IFRS that have a significant effect on the financial statements, and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in note 14, Financial Instruments.
e) Standards, Amendments and Interpretations to Existing Standards that are not yet effective
There are new or revised Accounting Standards and Interpretations on issue that are not yet effective. These include the following Standards and Interpretations that are applicable to the Trust and may have an impact on future financial statements.
