Section 3: Explanatory tables and budgeted financial statements


Section 3 presents explanatory tables and budgeted financial statements which provide a comprehensive snapshot of agency finances for the 2011–12 Budget year. It explains how budget plans are incorporated into the financial statements and provides further details of the reconciliation between appropriations and program expenses, movements in administered funds, special accounts and government Indigenous expenditure.

3.1 Explanatory tables

3.1.1 Movement of administered funds between years

Administered funds can be provided for a specified period, for example under annual Appropriation Acts. Funds not used in the specified period with the agreement of the Finance Minister may be moved to a future year. Table 3.1.1 shows the movement of administered funds approved between years.

3.1.2 Special accounts

Special accounts provide a means to set aside and record amounts used for specified purposes. Special accounts can be created by a Finance Minister’s Determination under the FMA Act or under separate enabling legislation. Table 3.1.2 shows the expected additions (receipts) and reductions (payments) for each account used by FaHCSIA.

3.2.2 Analysis of budgeted financial statements
Departmental
Income and expenses

FaHCSIA is budgeting for an operating deficit of $50.8 million for 2011-12. This is the result of the revised net cash funding arrangements introduced under Operation Sunlight whereby asset replacement is now funded through a capital appropriation rather than the departmental operating appropriation. After allowing for depreciation expenses the reconciliation table at the bottom of Table 3.2.1 shows that the operating result attributable to FaHCSIA is a balanced operating position.

Total operating revenue for 2011-12 is estimated at $551.2 million, comprising of a net increase in government appropriations of $5.9m to a total of $525.9 million, offset by a decrease in own source revenue of $2.0 million to a total of $25.3 million. The net increase in revenue of $3.9 million is primarily due to funding through Government decisions and measures.

Total expenses for 2011-12 are estimated to be $601.9 million. The net reduction in expenses of $0.3 million is primarily due to the reduction in depreciation and amortisation expenses and the extinguishment of prepayment expenses to Centrelink. This is offset by increases in employee and supplier expenses.

Balance sheet

The Department’s net asset position is expected to decrease by $20.5 million. This is due to the impact of the operating loss of $50.8 million and offset by an increase in contributed equity from the capital appropriations of $30.3 million.
Administered
Income and expenses

FaHCSIA will administer the collection of non-taxation revenue estimated at $163.0 million in 2011-12, a decrease of $15.3 million from the 2010-11 estimated revenues. The decrease is due to reduced returns from investments and receipts to special accounts.

FaHCSIA will administer programs totalling $76,381 million in expenses in 2011-12. The increase of $4,371 million principally reflects customer trends, indexation of income support payments and measures.


Balance sheet

Total assets administered on behalf of the Government are expected to increase by $125.5 million to $4,999.2 million. This is primarily due to an increase of $40.6 million in receivables and $95.2 million in investments.

Total liabilities administered on behalf of the Government are expected to increase by $66.5 million to $7,630.9 million which is driven by the increase in the personal benefits payable.

3.2.4 Notes to the financial statements
Accounting policies

Budgeted statements of income and expenditure, assets and liabilities and cash flows have been included for the financial years 2010–11 to 2014–15. These statements are prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Government’s financial budget and reporting framework.

Amounts in these statements are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.

FaHCSIA’s budgeted financial statements include:

  • the Department (FaHCSIA core)

  • the Social Security Appeals Tribunal

  • the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land Account.
Departmental and Administered Items

Departmental revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are those which are controlled by FaHCSIA. Departmental expenses include employee and supplier expenses and other administrative costs which are incurred by FaHCSIA in providing its goods and services.

Administered items are revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities which are managed by FaHCSIA on behalf of the Australian Government, according to set government directions. Administered expenses include subsidies, grants and personal benefit payments.

The distinction between departmental and administered funding enables an assessment of the administrative efficiency of the department in managing government programmes.

Asset Valuation

All assets are initially recorded at cost. Property, plant and equipment and other infrastructure assets are periodically revalued at their fair value.
