VENTURE TARANAKI TRUST 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2015

1. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

REPORTING ENTITY

Venture Taranaki Trust is a wholly owned 

subsidiary of New Plymouth District Council 

and is a Council Controlled Organisation 

as defined in Part 1 Section 6 of the Local 

Government Act 2002, and a Charitable 

Trust incorporated in New Zealand under 

a Trust Deed dated 27 May 1998 and is 

domiciled in New Zealand. The Trust 

commenced operations on 1 July 1998. 

The Trust has designated itself as a public 

benefit entity (PBE) for financial reporting 

purposes. 

The financial statements of the Trust are for 

the year ended 30 June 2015. The financial 

statements were authorised by the Board 

for issue on 1 September 2015.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

The financial statements have been 

prepared on the going concern basis, and 

the accounting policies have been applied 

consistently throughout the period. 

Statement of compliance

The financial statements of the Trust have 

been prepared in accordance with generally 

accepted accounting practice in New 

Zealand (NZ GAAP). 

The financial statements have been 

prepared in accordance with Tier 2 PBE 

accounting standards. The Trust qualifies 

for Tier 2 reporting on the basis that it is not 

publicly accountable and is not considered 

large under the PBE accounting standards. 

These financial statements comply with PBE 

Standards. 

These financial statements are the 

first financial statements presented in 

accordance with the new PBE accounting 

standards. There have been no material 

adjustments arising on transition to the new 

PBE accounting standards.

Presentation currency and rounding

The financial statements are presented 

in New Zealand dollars and all values are 

rounded to the nearest dollar. 



SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT 

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

•  Revenue

Revenue is measured at fair value. 

The specific accounting policies for 

significant revenue items are explained 

below:


Government grants

Grants received from the New Plymouth 

District Council are the primary source 

of funding to the Trust and are restricted 

for the purposes of the Trust meeting 

its objectives as specified in the Trust’s 

trust deed. The Trust also receives other 

government assistance for specific 

purposes, and these grants usually 

contain restrictions on their use.

Council, government, and 

non-government grants are recognised 

as non-exchange revenue when they 

become receivable unless there is 

an obligation to return the funds if 

conditions of the grant are not met. If 

there is such an obligation, the grants 

are initially recorded as grants received 

in advance and recognised as revenue 

when conditions of the grant are 

satisfied.

Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the 

effective interest method.

•  Foreign currency transactions 

Foreign currency transactions are 

translated into NZ$ (the functional 

currency) using the spot exchange rate 

at the date of the transactions. Foreign 

exchange gains and losses resulting 

from the settlement of such transactions 

and from the translation at year end 

exchange rates of monetary assets 

and liabilities denominated in foreign 

currencies are recognised in the surplus 

or deficit.

•  Leases – Operating Leases

An operating lease is a lease that does 

not transfer substantially all the risks 

and rewards incidental to ownership of 

an asset. 

Lease payments under an operating 

lease are recognised as an expense on a 

straight line basis over the lease term. 

•  Cash


Cash and cash equivalents include cash 

on hand and deposits held at call with 

banks and other short term highly liquid 

investments with original maturities of 

three months or less.

•  Receivables

Trade and other receivables are initially 

measured at fair value and subsequently 

at fair value less any provision for 

impairment. The amount of impairment 

is the difference between the carrying 

amount of the receivable and the 

present value of the amounts expected 

to be collected which is determined 

on an analysis of the Trust’s losses in 

previous periods and review of specific 

debtors. All receivables are assessed as 

a non-exchange as these balances relate 

to grants to be received by the Trust 

from government entities.



Loans and receivables 

Loans and receivables are non-

derivative financial assets with fixed or 

determinable payments that are not 

quoted in an active market. They are 

included in current assets, except for 

maturities greater than 12 months after 

the balance date, which are included in 

non-current assets.

After initial recognition, they are 

measured at amortised cost, using 

the effective interest method, less 

impairment. Gains and losses when the 

asset is impaired or derecognised are 

recognised in the surplus or deficit.

VENTURE TARANAKI TRUST 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

CONTINUED

For the year ended 30 June 2015

1. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTINUED

Loans to community organisations made 

at nil or below-market interest rates are 

initially recognised at the present value 

of their expected future cash flows, 

discounted at the current market rate of 

return for a similar financial instrument. 

The difference between the face value 

and present value of the expected future 

cash flows of the loan is recognised in 

the surplus or deficit as a grant expense. 

The loans are subsequently measured 

at amortised cost using the effective 

interest method. 

•  Impairment of financial assets 

Financial assets are assessed for 

evidence of impairment at each balance 

date. Impairment losses are recognised 

in the surplus or deficit. 

•  Intangibles



Software acquisition

Acquired computer software licenses 

are capitalised on the basis of the costs 

incurred to acquire and bring to use the 

specific software. Staff training costs 

are recognised as an expense when 

incurred.

Costs associated with maintaining 

computer software are recognised as an 

expense when incurred.

Costs associated with development 

and improvements of the Venture 

Taranaki and Energy Stream websites are 

recognised as an asset when incurred as 

the websites generate future economic 

benefits.



Amortisation

Computer software licenses are 

amortised on a straight-line basis over 

their estimated useful life of two and a 

half years. Amortisation begins when the 

asset is available for use and ceases at 

the date when the asset is disposed of. 

The amortisation charge for each year is 

recognised in surplus or deficit.

•  Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are 

stated at cost less accumulated 

depreciation and impairment losses. 

Additions

The cost of an item of property, plant, 

and equipment is recognised as an asset 

only when it is probable that service 

potential associated with the item will 

flow to the Trust and the cost of the 

item can be measured reliably. In most 

instances, an item of property, plant, 

and equipment is initially recognised 

at its cost. Where an asset is acquired 

at no cost, or for a nominal cost, it is 

recognised at its fair value when control 

over the asset is obtained.

Disposals

Gains and losses on disposals are 

determined by comparing the disposal 

proceeds with the carrying amount of 

the asset. Gains and losses on disposals 

are presented net in the surplus or 

deficit.

Subsequent costs

Costs incurred subsequent to initial 

acquisition are capitalised only when 

it is probable that service potential 

associated with the item will flow to the 

Trust and the cost of the item can be 

measured reliably. The costs of day-to-

day servicing of property, plant, and 

equipment are recognised as an expense 

as they are incurred.



Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on a straight 

line basis at rates calculated to allocate 

the assets cost less estimated residual 

value, over the estimated useful life of 

the asset.

Major depreciation periods are:

- Leasehold alterations  10 years

- Fixtures and fittings 

10 years


- Office equipment 

3-10 years

- Motor vehicles  

3 years


- Other fixed assets 

4-10 years

The residual value and useful life of 

an asset are reviewed, and adjusted if 

applicable, at each financial year end.

•  Impairment of property, plant, and 

equipment and intangible assets

Property, plant, and equipment and 

intangible assets are reviewed for 

indicators of impairment as at each 

balance date. When there is an indicator 

of impairment, the asset’s recoverable 

amount is estimated. The recoverable 

amount is the higher of an asset’s fair 

value less costs to sell and value in use.

•  Payables

Trade and other payables are stated 

at cost. Trade and other payables are 

non-interest bearing and are normally 

settled on 30 day terms, therefore 

the carrying value of trade and other 

payables approximates their fair value. 

All accounts payable are assessed as an 

exchange as these valances arose from 

transactions carried at normal business 

terms.


•  Employee entitlements

Short-term employee entitlements

Employee benefits that are due to be 

settled within 12 months after the end 

of the period in which the employee 

renders the related service are measured 

at nominal values based on accrued 

entitlements at current rates of pay. 

These include salaries and wages 

accrued up to balance date, annual 

leave earned to but not yet taken at 

balance date, and sick leave.

A liability for sick leave is recognised to 

the extent that absences in the coming 

year are expected to be greater than the 

sick leave entitlements earned in the 

coming year. The amount is calculated 

based on the unused sick leave 

entitlement that can be carried forward 

at balance date, to the extent that it will 

be used by staff to cover those future 

absences.


VENTURE TARANAKI ANNUAL REPORT 2015

35

Presentation of employee entitlements

Sick leave, annual leave, and vested long 

service leave are classified as a current 

liability. Non-vested long service leave 

and retirement gratuities expected to 

be settled within 12 months of balance 

date are classified as a current liability. 

All other employee entitlements are 

classified as a non-current liability.

•  Provisions

The Trust recognises a provision for 

future expenditure of uncertain amount 

or timing when there is a present 

obligation (either legal or constructive) 

as a result of a past event, it is probable 

that expenditures will be required to 

settle the obligation and a reliable 

estimate can be made of the amount 

of the obligation. Provisions are not 

recognised for future operating losses.

Provisions are measured at the present 

value of the expenditures expected to 

be required to settle the obligation using 

a pre-tax discount rate that reflects 

current market assessments of the time 

value of money and the risks specific 

to the obligation. The increase in the 

provision due to the passage of time is 

recognised in “finance costs”.

•  Goods and Services Tax (GST)

All items in the financial statements 

are presented exclusive of goods and 

service tax (GST), except for receivables 

and payables, which are presented on 

a GST inclusive basis. Where GST is 

not recoverable as input tax, then it is 

recognised as part of the related asset 

or expense. The net amount of GST 

recoverable from, or payable to, the 

IRD is included as part of receivables or 

payables in the statement of financial 

position.

The net GST paid to, or received from 

the IRD, including the GST relating to 

investing and financing activities, is 

classified as a net operating cash flow in 

the statement of cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are 

disclosed exclusive of GST.

•  Income Tax

Income tax expense includes 

components relating to both current tax 

and deferred tax. 

Current tax is the amount of income tax 

payable based on the taxable profit for 

the current year, plus any adjustments 

to income tax payable in respect of prior 

years. Current tax is calculated using 

tax rates (and tax laws) that have been 

enacted or substantively enacted at 

balance date. 

Deferred tax is the amount of income tax 

payable or recoverable in future periods 

in respect of temporary differences 

and unused tax losses. Temporary 

differences are differences between the 

carrying amount of assets and liabilities 

in the statement of financial position and 

the corresponding tax bases used in the 

computation of taxable profit. 

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates 

that are expected to apply when the 

asset is realised or the liability is settled, 

based on tax rates (and tax laws) that 

have been enacted or substantively 

enacted at balance date. The 

measurement of deferred tax reflects the 

tax consequences that would follow from 

the manner in which the entity expects 

to recover or settle the carrying amount 

of its assets and liabilities. 

Deferred tax liabilities are generally 

recognised for all taxable temporary 

differences. Deferred tax assets are 

recognised to the extent that it is 

probable that taxable profits will be 

available against which the deductible 

temporary differences or tax losses can 

be utilised. 

Deferred tax is not recognised if the 

temporary difference arises from the 

initial recognition of goodwill or from the 

initial recognition of an asset or liability 

in a transaction that is not a business 

combination, and at the time of the 

transaction, affects neither accounting 

profit nor taxable profit. 

Current and deferred tax is recognised 

against the surplus or deficit for the 

period, except to the extent that it 

relates to a business combination, or 

to transactions recognised in other 

comprehensive revenue and expense or 

directly in equity.

•  Critical accounting estimates and 

assumptions

In preparing these financial statements, 

estimates and assumptions have 

been made concerning the future. 

These estimates and assumptions 

may differ from the subsequent actual 

results. Estimates and assumptions are 

continually evaluated and are based on 

historical experience and other factors, 

including expectations or future events 

that are believed to be reasonable under 

the circumstances.
