6. EQUITY

a) Trust Capital

The initial Trust capital was set at $90 million in 1997. The Trust capital has been increased over time as a surrogate for inflation and population growth within the region administered by the Trust. The Trustees periodically review the capital maintenance transfer. This year the Trustees determined to increase the capital by a further $3.6 million ($10.142 million in 2010) to ensure the "real" capital of the Trust is maintained.

2011 $ 2010 $
Balance at the beginning of the year 125,934,669 115,792,322
Transfer from donations reserve 3,600,000 10,142,347

Balance at the end of the year | 129,534,669 | 125,934,669 |

b) Donations Reserve

The Trustees retain all undistributed income in the donation reserve. The optimum level of the donation reserve is 25% of the capital base so that the annual donation distribution is able to be maintained when investment markets provide negative results.

2011 $ 2010 $
Balance at the beginning of the year 13,861,927 -
Transfer (to) capital reserve (3,600,000) (10,142,347)
