2016 Final Report 2

Hon Liza Harvey MLA Deputy Premier; Minister for Police; Road Safety; Training and Workforce Development; Women's Interests

In accordance with Section 63 of the Financial Management Act 2006, I hereby submit for your information and presentation to Parliament, the Final Report of for the period January 1 2016 to April 10 2016.

The Report has been prepared in accordance with the terms of the appointment of the Reporting Officer, as outlined by the Treasurer and the provisions of the Financial Management Act 2006.

Satvinder Sekhon Reporting Officer 16 June 2016

2016 Final Report 3

In October 2015, The Minister for Training and Workforce Development launched the Training Sector Reform Project (Reform Project) to examine the function and structure of Western Australia’s public training sector. The purpose of the Reform Project is to ensure a robust and sustainable public vocational education and training (VET) sector with high quality training that is accessible and equitable to the community and that supports improved outcomes for students.

As a result of the State Government’s Training Sector Reform Project from 11 April 2016, the 11 former Institutes and their 70 campus locations will be managed by a network of five TAFE colleges. The five new TAFE colleges will be named North Metropolitan TAFE, South Metropolitan TAFE, North Regional TAFE, Central Regional TAFE and South Regional TAFE.

New arrangements will also be introduced that will see greater collaboration among the network of colleges, allowing resources and expertise to be shared across WA. This will give students, particularly those in regional areas, access to more diverse training programs.

The reforms will also see the reinstatement of the TAFE brand, in recognition of the strong historical association and awareness by local communities.

As a result of the reform operations, students and staff at Polytechnic West will transition to South Metropolitan TAFE from April 11, 2016. Therefore outcomes relating to Polytechnic West will be reported on in the amalgamated TAFE’s end of financial year reporting.

2016 Final Report 4

Under Section 68(1) of the Finance Management Act 2006 (FMA) it is necessary to appoint a Reporting Officer, to perform the duties in relation to the final reports for the abolished Institute.

Approval was sought for the Treasurer to appoint a reporting officer who is responsible for the preparation of the final reports for any Institute closed by the reform. The report will be for the period 1 January 2016 to 10 April 2016 inclusive and include a set of financial statements and notes (including 2015 comparatives), an abridged report on operations and not include key performance indicators.

The final report is to be submitted to the Minister for The Department of Training and Workforce Development within 90 days from the closure date of Polytechnic West, to be tabled in Parliament 14 days after that.

POLYTECHNIC WEST NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 10 APRIL 2016

1. Australian Accounting Standards (a) General The Institute's financial statements for the period ended 10 April 2016 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards. The term 'Australian Accounting Standards' includes Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standard Board (AASB).

The Institute has adopted any applicable new and revised Australian Accounting Standards from their operative dates. (b) Early adoption of standards The Institute cannot early adopt an Australian Accounting Standard unless specifically permitted by Treasurer's Instruction (TI) 1101 'Application of Australian Accounting Standards and Other Pronouncements'. Partial exemption permitting early adoption of AASB 2015-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Fair Value Disclosures of Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities has been granted. Aside from AASB 2015-7, there has been no early adoption of any other Australian Accounting Standards that have been issued or amended (but not operative) by the Institute for the reporting period ended 10 April 2016.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies The following accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation of these financial statements. Unless otherwise stated, these policies are consistent with those adopted in the previous year. (a) General statement The Institute is a not-for-profit reporting entity that prepares general purpose financial statements in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards, the Framework, Statements of Accounting Concepts and other authoritative pronouncements of the AASB as applied by the Treasurer’s instructions. Several of these are modified by the Treasurer’s instructions to vary application, disclosure, format and wording. The Financial Management Act 2006 and the Treasurer’s instructions impose legislative provisions that govern the preparation of financial statements and take precedence over the Australian Accounting Standards, the Framework, Statements of Accounting Concepts and other authoritative pronouncements of the AASB.

Where modification is required and has had a material or significant financial effect upon the reported results, details of that modification and the resulting financial effect are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. (b) Basis of preparation The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting using the historical cost convention, except for land and buildings which have been measured at fair value.

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements have been consistently applied throughout all periods presented unless otherwise stated.

The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars ($).

Note 3 ‘Judgements made by management in applying accounting policies’ discloses judgements that have been made in the process of applying the Institute’s accounting policies resulting in the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Note 4 ‘Key sources of estimation uncertainty’ discloses key assumptions made concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. (c) Reporting entity The reporting entity comprises the Institute and bodies included at note 39 ‘Related bodies’. (d) Contributed equity AASB Interpretation 1038 ‘Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly-Owned Public Sector Entities’ requires transfers in the nature of equity contributions, other than as a result of a restructure of administrative arrangements, to be designated by the Government (the owner) as contributions by owners (at the time of, or prior to transfer) before such transfers can be recognised as equity contributions. Capital appropriations have been designated as contributions by owners by TI 955 'Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly Owned Public Sector Entities' and have been credited directly to Contributed Equity.

The transfers of net assets to/from other agencies, other than as a result of a restructure of administrative arrangements, are designated as contributions by owners where the transfers are non-discretionary and non- reciprocal. See note 30 'Equity'.

(e) Income Revenue recognition Revenue is recognised and measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable.

The majority of operating revenue of the Institute represents revenue earned from student fees and charges, fee for service, ancillary services, trading activities and Commonwealth grants and contributions. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows: Sale of goods Revenue is recognised from the sale of goods and disposal of other assets when the significant risks and rewards of ownership transfer to the purchaser and can be measured reliably. Provision of services Revenue is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction. Interest Revenue is recognised as the interest accrues.

Grants, donations, gifts and other non-reciprocal contributions Revenue is recognised at fair value when the Institute obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions, usually when cash is received.

Other non-reciprocal contributions that are not contributions by owners are recognised at their fair value. Contributions of services are only recognised when a fair value can be reliably determined and the services would be purchased if not donated.

Service appropriations Service Appropriations are recognised as revenues at fair value in the period in which the Institute gains control of the appropriated funds The Institute gains control of appropriated funds at the time those funds are deposited to the bank account.

State funds The funds received from the Department of Training and Workforce Development in respect of the delivery of services forming part of the Delivery Performance Agreement are included in State funds, disclosed under ‘Income from State Government'. They are the result of training successfully tendered for under competitive tendering arrangements. This revenue is recognised at nominal value in the period in which the Institute meets the terms of the Agreement. See note 18 'Income from State Government'. Gains Realised and unrealised gains are usually recognised on a net basis. These include gains arising on the disposal of non-current assets and some revaluations of non-current assets. (f) Property, plant and equipment Capitalisation/expensing of assets Items of property, plant and equipment costing $5,000 or more are recognised as assets and the cost of utilising assets is expensed (depreciated) over their useful lives. Where applicable in accordance with TI 1101, the capitalisation threshold has been applied to the aggregate value of a group or network of assets where the cost of individual item may be below the threshold but collectively the cost of the items in the group or network exceeds the threshold. Items of property, plant and equipment costing less than $5,000 are immediately expensed direct to the Statement of Comprehensive Income (other than where they form part of a group of similar items which are significant in total). Initial recognition and measurement Property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at cost.

For items of property, plant and equipment acquired at no cost or for nominal cost, the cost is the fair value at the date of acquisition. Subsequent measurement Subsequent to initial recognition as an asset, the revaluation model is used for the measurement of land and buildings and historical cost for all other property, plant and equipment. Land and buildings are carried at fair value less accumulated depreciation (buildings only) and accumulated impairment losses.

All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Where market-based evidence is available, the fair value of land and buildings is determined on the basis of current market values determined by reference to recent market transactions. When buildings are revalued by reference to recent market transactions, the accumulated depreciation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount restated to the revalued amount.

In the absence of market-based evidence, fair value of land and buildings is determined on the basis of existing use. This normally applies where buildings are specialised or where land use is restricted. Fair value for existing use buildings is determined by reference to the cost of replacing the remaining future economic benefits embodied in the asset, i.e. the depreciated replacement cost. Where the fair value of buildings is determined on the depreciated replacement cost basis,, the gross carrying amount and the accumulated depreciation are restated proportionately. . Fair value for restricted use land is determined by comparison with market evidence for land with similar approximate utility (high restricted use land) or market value of comparable unrestricted land. (low restricted use land).

Land and buildings are independently valued annually by the Western Australian Land Information Institute(Valuation Services) and recognised annually to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from the asset's fair value at the end of the reporting period.

The most significant assumptions and judgements in estimating fair value are made in assessing whether to apply the existing use basis to assets and in determining estimated life.

Professional judgement by the valuer is required where the evidence does not provide a clear distinction between market type assets and existing use assets. Refer to note 23 'Property, plant and equipment' for further information on revaluations. Derecognition Upon disposal or derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, any revaluation surplus relating to that asset is retained in the asset revaluation surplus. Asset revaluation surplus The asset revaluation surplus is used to record increments and decrements on the revaluation of non-current assets on a class of assets basis. Depreciation All non-current assets having a limited useful life are systematically depreciated over their estimated useful lives in a manner that reflects the consumption of their future economic benefits.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method, using rates which are reviewed annually. Estimated useful lives for each class of depreciable asset are:

Buildings 20 to 40 years Transportable 20 to 40 years Motor vehicles, caravans and trailers 1 to 25 years Plant, furniture and general equipment 1 to 30 years Computing, communications and software (a) 1 to 14 years

(a) Software that is integral to the operation of related hardware.

Works of art controlled by the Institute are classified as property, plant and equipment. These are anticipated to have indefinite useful lives. Their service potential has not, in any material sense, been consumed during the reporting period and so no depreciation has been recognised.

Land is not depreciated.

Library Collection In 2014, the institute recognised the Library Collection as a grouped asset from 31 December 2013. Purchases during the first year (2013) will be 100% depreciated in 31 December 2018 and derecognised in 31 December 2020 and each year subsequently treated, in accordance with the ‘rolling depreciation’ methodology adopted (see note 23). (g) Intangible assets Capitalisation/Expensing of assets Acquisitions of intangible assets costing $5,000 or more and internally generated intangible assets costing $5,000 or more, are capitalised. The cost of utilising the assets is expensed (amortised) over their useful life. Costs incurred below these thresholds are immediately expensed directly to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. For assets acquired at no cost or for nominal cost, the cost is their fair value at the date of acquisition.

The cost model is applied for subsequent measurement requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

Amortisation for intangible assets with finite useful lives is calculated for the period of the expected benefit (estimated useful life which is reviewed annually) on the straight line basis. All intangible assets controlled by the Institute have a finite useful life and zero residual value. The expected useful lives for each class of intangible asset are:

Licences up to 10 years Development costs 3 to 5 years Software (a) 3 to 5 years Website costs 3 to 5 years

(a) Software that is not integral to the operation of any related hardware.

Computer software Software that is an integral part of the related hardware is recognised as property, plant and equipment. Software that is not an integral part of the related hardware is recognised as an intangible asset. Software costing less than $5,000 is expensed in the year of acquisition.

(h) Impairment of assets Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are tested for any indication of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Where there is an indication of impairment, the recoverable amount is estimated. Where the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to the recoverable amount and an impairment loss is recognised. Where an asset measured at cost is written down to recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. Where a previously revalued asset is written down to recoverable amount, the loss is recognised as a revaluation decrement in other comprehensive income. As the Institute is a not-for-profit entity, unless asset has been identified as a surplus asset, the recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and depreciated replacement cost.

The risk of impairment is generally limited to circumstances where an asset’s depreciation is materially understated, where the replacement cost is falling or where there is a significant change in useful life. Each relevant class of assets is reviewed annually to verify that the accumulated depreciation/amortisation reflects the level of consumption or expiration of asset’s future economic benefits and to evaluate any impairment risk from falling replacement costs.

Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at the end of each reporting period irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment.

The recoverable amount of assets identified as surplus assets is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and the present value of future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. Surplus assets carried at fair value have no risk of material impairment where fair value is determined by reference to market-based evidence. Where fair value is determined by reference to depreciated replacement cost, surplus assets are at risk of impairment and the recoverable amount is measured. Surplus assets at cost are tested for indications of impairment at the end of each reporting period.

See note 26 ‘Impairment of assets’ for the outcome of impairment reviews and testing. See note 2(o) 'Receivables' and note 21 'Receivables' for impairment of receivables.

(i) Non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale are recognised at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, and are disclosed separately from other assets in the Statement of Financial Position. Assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortised.

(j) Leases The institute has entered into operating lease arrangements for buildings and motor vehicles. Lease payments are expensed on a straight line basis over the lease term as this represents the pattern of benefits derived.

(k) Financial instruments The Institute has two categories of financial instruments: Financial assets  Cash and cash equivalents  Restricted cash and cash equivalents  Receivables

Financial liabilities  Payables  Other liabilities Initial recognition and measurement of financial instruments is at fair value which normally equates to the transaction cost or the face value. Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The fair value of short-term receivables and payables is the transaction cost or the face value because there is no interest rate applicable and subsequent measurement is not required as the effect of discounting is not material. (l) Cash and cash equivalents For the purpose of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents include restricted cash and cash equivalents. These are comprised of cash on hand and short-term deposits with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.

(m) Accrued salaries Accrued salaries (see note 27 'Payables') represent the amount due to staff but unpaid at the end of the reporting period, as the end of the last pay period for that reporting period does not coincide with the end of the reporting period. Accrued salaries are settled within a fortnight of the reporting period end. The Institute considers the carrying amount of accrued salaries to be equivalent to its fair value.

The accrued salaries suspense account (see note 19 ‘Restricted cash and cash equivalents’) consists of amounts paid annually into a suspense account over a period of ten financial years to largely meet the additional cash outlay in each eleventh year when 27 pay days occur instead of the normal 26. No interest is received on this account.

(n) Inventories Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs are assigned by the method most appropriate to each particular class of inventory, with the majority being measured on a first in first out basis. Inventories not held for resale are measured at cost unless they are no longer required, in which case they are measured at net realisable value.

See note 20 'Inventories'. (o) Receivables Receivables are recognised at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts (i.e. impairment). The collectability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis and any receivables identified as uncollectible are written-off against the allowance account. The allowance for uncollectible amounts (doubtful debts) is raised when there is objective evidence that the Institute will not be able to collect the debts. The carrying amount is equivalent to fair value as it is due for settlement within 30 days.

See note 2(k) ‘Financial instruments’ and note 21 ‘Receivables’.

(p) Payables Payables are recognised at the amounts payable when the Institute becomes obliged to make future payments as a result of a purchase of assets or services. The carrying amount is equivalent to fair value, as settlement is generally within 30 days. See note 2(k) ‘Financial instruments’ and note 27 'Payables'.

(q) Provisions Provisions are liabilities of uncertain timing or amount and are recognised where there is a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event and when the outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is probable and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. See note 28 ‘Provisions’.

(i) Provisions - employee benefits All annual leave and long service leave provisions are in respect of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period. Annual leave

Annual leave is not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the reporting period and is therefore considered to be ‘other long-term employee benefits’. The annual leave liability is recognised and measured at the present value of amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. When assessing expected future payments consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels including non-salary components such as employer superannuation contributions, as well as the experience of employee departures and periods of service. The expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the end of the reporting period on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

The provision for annual leave is classified as a current liability as the Institute does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

Professional leave The provision for professional allowance leave relates to the entitlement of lecturers under the WA TAFE lecturers general agreement for four weeks professional leave during each calendar year of service. Since this entitlement cannot be accrued from year to year it is not ordinarily provided for at 31 December but has been provided at 10 April 2016. Professional allowance leave liabilities have been classified as current as they must be used each calendar year and cannot be accrued from year to year. As at 10 April 2016, this leave has been taken in advance of the accrual resulting in a negative balance.

Long service leave Long service leave is not expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the reporting period is recognised and measured at the present value of amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. When assessing expected future payments consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels including non-salary components such as employer superannuation contributions, as well as the experience of employee departures and periods of service. The expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the end of the reporting period on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Unconditional long service leave provisions are classified as current liabilities as the Institute does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period. Pre- conditional and conditional long service leave provisions are classified as non-current liabilities because the Institute has an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability until the employee has completed the requisite years of service.

Deferred Leave The provision for deferred leave relates to Public Service employees who have entered into an agreement to self- fund an additional twelve months leave in the fifth year of the agreement. The provision recognises the value of salary set aside for employees to be used in the fifth year. This liability is measured on the same basis as annual leave. Deferred leave is reported as a current provision as employees can leave the scheme at their discretion at any time.

Purchased leave

The provision for purchased leave relates to Public Service employees who have entered into an agreement to self- fund up to an additional 10 weeks leave per calendar year. The provision recognises the value of salary set aside for employees and is measured at the undiscounted amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Superannuation The Government Employees Superannuation Board (GESB) and other funds administer public sector superannuation arrangements in Western Australia in accordance with legislative requirements. Eligibility criteria for membership in particular schemes for public sector employees vary according to commencement and implementation dates. Eligible employees contribute to the Pension Scheme, a defined benefit pension scheme closed to new members since 1987, or the Gold State Superannuation Scheme (GSS), a defined benefit lump sum scheme closed to new members since 1995. Employees commencing employment prior to 16 April 2007 who were not members of either the Pension Scheme or the GSS became non-contributory members of the West State Superannuation Scheme (WSS). Employees commencing employment on or after 16 April 2007 became members of the GESB Super Scheme (GESBS). From 30 March 2012, existing members of the WSS or GESBS and new employees have been able to choose their preferred superannuation fund provider. The Institute makes contributions to GESB or other funds providers on behalf of employees in compliance with the Commonwealth Government’s Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992. Contributions to these accumulation schemes extinguish the Institute’s liability for superannuation charges in respect of employees who are not members of the Pension Scheme or GSS. The GSS is a defined benefit scheme for the purposes of employees and whole-of-government reporting. However, it is a defined contribution plan for Institute purposes because the concurrent contributions (defined contributions) made by the Institute to GESB extinguishes the Institute’s obligations to the related superannuation liability. The Institute has no liabilities under the Pension Scheme or the GSS. The liabilities for the unfunded Pension Scheme and the unfunded GSS transfer benefits attributable to members who transferred from the Pension Scheme, are assumed by the Treasurer. All other GSS obligations are funded by concurrent contributions made by the Institute to the GESB.

The GESB makes all benefit payments in respect of the Pension Scheme and GSS, and is recouped from the Treasurer for the employer's share. See also note 2(r) 'Superannuation expense'.

(ii) Provisions - other Employment on-costs Employment on-costs, including workers’ compensation insurance, are not employee benefits and are recognised separately as liabilities and expenses when the employment to which they relate has occurred. Employment on- costs are included as part of 'Other expenses' and are not included as part of the Institute's 'Employee benefits expense’. The related liability is included in 'Employment on-costs provision'. (See note 10 'Other expenses' and note 28 'Provisions'.) (r) Superannuation expense The superannuation expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income comprises employer contributions paid to the GSS (concurrent contributions), the West State Superannuation Scheme (WSS), the GESB Super Scheme (GESBS) and other superannuation funds.

(s) Assets and services received free of charge or for nominal cost Assets or services received free of charge or for nominal cost that the Institute would otherwise purchase if not donated, are recognised as income at the fair value of the assets or services where they can be reliably measured. A corresponding expense is recognised for services received. Receipts of assets are recognised in the Statement of Financial Position.

Assets or services received from other State Government agencies are separately disclosed under Income from State Government in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

(t) Comparative figures Comparative figures are, where appropriate, reclassified to be comparable with the figures presented in the current financial year.

3. Judgements made by management in applying accounting policies The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements about the application of accounting policies that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements. The Institute evaluates these judgements regularly.

Operating Lease Commitments The Institute has entered into several commercial leases and has determined that the lessors retain substantially all the significant risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the property. Accordingly, the leases have been classified as operating leases.

4. Key sources of estimation uncertainty Key estimates and assumptions concerning the future are based on historical experience and various other factors that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Several estimations and assumptions in calculating the Institute’s long service leave provision include expected future salary rates, discount rates, employee retention rates and expected future payments. Changes in these estimations and assumptions may impact on the carrying amount of the long service leave provision.

Student receivables under 60 days due are considered collectable. Student receivables over 90 days are analysed for collectability based on historical collection rates and the provision is adjusted accordingly.

General receivables from other government agencies are considered risk free (no allowance for doubtful debt) and all others are individually assessed, with an allowance to the full value if required.

Inventory stocks (bookshops) are ordered on a just in time basis to match current year teaching requirements. Obsolescence is considered less than 5% of annual trading purchases and therefore no provision is made. A decision was made in 2014 to discontinue bookshop trading from 2015 onwards.

The Institute revalues its land and buildings every year during which time estimates of useful life are provided to give guidance on depreciation rates used in intervening years.

No provision has been made for sick leave as the Institute’s annual costs do not exceed the annual value of entitlements.

5. Disclosure of changes in accounting policy and estimates

Initial application of an Australian Accounting Standard The Institute has not applied any Australian Accounting Standards effective for reporting period 1 January 2016 to 10 April 2016 that impacted on the Institute.

Voluntary changes in accounting policy There are no voluntary changes in Accounting Policy for the reporting period ending 10 April 2016.

Future impact of Australian Accounting Standards not yet operative The Institute cannot early adopt an Australian Accounting Standard unless specifically permitted by TI 1101 Application of Australian Accounting Standards and Other Pronouncements. Consequently, the Institute has not applied early any Australian Accounting Standards that have been issued that may impact the Institute and any Australian Accounting Standards that are operative after 10 April 2016 will not apply due to closure of the Institute.

Changes in Accounting Estimates There have been no changes in accounting estimates. Polytechnic West NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 16GLACT &PREV_LDG FOR THE PERIOD 1 JANUARY 2016 TO 10 APRIL 2016 1 January 2016 Year Ended to 10 April 2016 31 December 2015 $ $

(a) Land and buildings were revalued as at 1 January 2015 by the Western Australian Land Information Authority (Valuation Services). The valuations were performed during the year ended 31 December 2015 and recognised at 31 December 2015. In undertaking the revaluation, fair value was determined by reference to market values for land: $ 14,900,000. For the remaining balance, fair value of buildings was determined on the basis of depreciated replacement cost and fair value of land was determined on the basis of comparison with market evidence for land with low level utility (high restricted use land). See note 2(f) 'Property, plant and equipment'.

Valuation processes

There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period.

Transfers in and out of a fair value level are recognised on the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. Transfers are generally limited to assets newly classified as non-current assets held for sale as Treasurer's instructions require valuations of land and buildings to be categorised within Level 3 where the valuations utilise significant Level 3 inputs on a recurring basis.

Buildings (Level 3 fair values) Fair value for existing use specialised building is determined by reference to the cost of replacing the remaining future economic benefits embodied in the asset, i.e. the depreciated replacement cost. Depreciated replacement cost is the current replacement cost of an asset less accumulated depreciation calculated on the basis of such cost to reflect the already consumed economic benefit, expired economic benefit or obsolescence , and optimisation (where applicable) of the asset. Determination of the current replacement cost of such assets held by the Institute is calculated by reference to the market observable replacement cost of a substitute asset of comparable utility and the gross project size specifications.

Valuation using depreciated replacement cost utilises the significant Level 3 input, consumed economic benefit/obsolescence of asset which is estimated by the Western Australian Land Information Authority (Valuation Services). The fair value measurement is sensitive to the estimate of consumption/obsolescence, with higher values of the estimate correlating with lower estimated fair values of buildings.

Land (Level 3 fair values) Fair value for restricted use land is based on comparison with market evidence for land with low level utility (high restricted use land). The relevant comparators of land with low level utility is selected by the Western Australian Land Information Authority (Valuation Services) and represents the application of a significant Level 3 input in this valuation methodology. The fair value measurement is sensitive to values of comparator land, with higher values of comparator land correlating with higher estimated fair values of land.

Reconciliations of the opening and closing balances are provided in Note 23.

Basis of Valuation In the absence of market-based evidence due to the specialised nature of the assets, non-financial assets are valued at Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy on an existing use basis. The existing use basis recognises that restrictions or limitations have been placed on their use and disposal when they are not determined to be surplus to requirements. These restrictions are imposed by virtue of the assets being held to deliver a specific community service and the Institute's enabling legislation.

36 Financial instruments

(a) Financial risk management objectives and policies

Approximately 58% of the Institutes funding is under an agreement with the State Government for delivery of training with an additional 24% of other revenue from students associated with this delivery. The Institute therefore has a high dependence on government for the continued delivery of training services. The level of service provided to Government is negotiated annually with modifications for growth or reduction to areas forming part of the overall strategic plan of the Institute.

Financial instruments held by the Institute are cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables and other liabilities. The Institute has limited exposure to financial risks. The Institute's overall risk management program focuses on managing the risk identified below:

Credit risk Credit risk arises when there is the possibility of the Institute’s receivables defaulting on their contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Institute.

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period in relation to each class of recognised financial assets is the gross carrying amount of those assets inclusive of any allowance for impairment as shown in the table at note 36(c) ‘Financial instruments disclosures’ and note 21 ‘Receivables’.

Credit risk associated with the Institute’s financial assets is minimal because the Institute trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. The Institute has policies in place to ensure that sales of products and services are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Institute's exposure to bad debt is minimal. At the end of the reporting period there are no significant concentrations of credit risk. Polytechnic West NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 16GLACT &PREV_LDG FOR THE PERIOD 1 JANUARY 2016 TO 10 APRIL 2016

Liquidity risk Liquidity risk arises when the Institute is unable to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.

The Institute is exposed to liquidity risk through its trading in the normal course of business. The Institute has appropriate procedures to manage cash flows including drawdowns of appropriations by monitoring forecast cash flows to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet its commitments.

Market risk Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates will affect the Institute's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The Institute does not trade in foreign currency and is not materially exposed to other price risks (for example, equity securities or commodity prices changes). (b) Categories of financial instruments The carrying amounts of each of the following categories of financial assets and financial liabilities at the end of the reporting period are : 10 April 2016 31 December 2015 $ $ Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents 26,784,221 24,647,193 Restricted cash and cash equivalents 1,295,244 1,343,638 Receivables (a) 6,138,390 1,740,561

Financial Liabilities Payables 1,980,675 1,966,322 Other liabilities - 2,334,276 (a) The amount of loans and receivables excludes GST recoverable from the ATO (statutory receivable).

(c) Financial instrument disclosures Credit risk The following table discloses the Institute's maximum exposure to credit risk and the ageing analysis of financial assets. The Institute's maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount of financial assets as shown below. The table discloses the ageing of financial assets that are past due but not impaired and impaired financial assets. The table is based on information provided to senior management of the Institute. The Institute does not hold any collateral as security or other credit enhancements relating to the financial assets it holds.
