Statement of Capital Works for the year ended 30 June 2015
Definition of asset categories (a)
New New capital expenditure does not have any element of renewal, expansion or upgrade of existing assets. New capital expenditure may or may not result in additional revenue for Council and will result in an additional burden for future operation, maintenance and capital renewal.
(b)
Renewal Expenditure on an existing asset which returns the service potential or the life of the asset up to that which it had originally. It periodically requires expenditure, relatively large (material) in value compared with the value of the components or sub-components of the asset being renewed. As it reinstates existing service potential, it has no impact on revenue, but may reduce future operating and maintenance expenditure if completed at the optimum time.
(c)
Upgrade Expenditure which enhances an existing asset to provide a higher level of service or expenditure that will increase the life of the asset beyond that which it had originally. Upgrade expenditure is discretional and often does not result in additional revenue unless direct user charges apply. It will increase operating and maintenance expenditure in the future because of the increase in the Council’s asset base.
(d)
Expansion Expenditure which extends an existing asset, at the same standard as is currently enjoyed by residents, to a new group of users. It is discretional expenditure which increases future operating and maintenance costs, because it increases Council’s asset base, but may be associated with additional revenue from the new user group.

INTRODUCTION Banyule City Council was established by an Order of the Governor in Council on 14 December 1994 and is a Body Corporate. Council has three Service Centres located at: Ivanhoe – 275 Upper Heidelberg Road Rosanna – 44 Turnham Avenue Greensborough – 9-13 Flintoff Street Council’s website address is : www.banyule.vic.gov.au STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE These Financial Statements are a general purpose Financial Report that consists of a Comprehensive Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Cash Flows, Statement of Capital Works and notes accompanying these Financial Statements. The general purpose Financial Report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, the Local Government Act 1989, and the Local Government (Planning and Reporting) Regulations 2014. 1.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant policies which have been adopted in the preparation of these Financial Statements are: (i)
Basis of Accounting The accrual basis of accounting has been used in the preparation of these Financial Statements, whereby assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses are recognised in the reporting period to which they relate, regardless of when cash is received or paid. The Financial Statements have been prepared on the accrual and going concern basis under the historical cost conventions except where specifically stated in: Note 1 - (xii): Recognition and measurement of assets Note 1 - (xiii): Valuation of assets Note 1 - (xvi): Impairment of assets Note 1 - (xxxii): Accounting for investments in associates Note 1 - (x): Non-current assets classified as held for sale Note 1 - (xvii): Investment property Note 1 - (xxv): Financial guarantees Judgements, estimates and assumptions are required to be made about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated judgements are based on professional judgement derived from historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and also in future periods that are affected by the revision. Judgements and assumptions made by management in the application of AASs that have significant effects on the Financial Statements and estimates relate to:
the fair value of land, buildings, infrastructure, plant and equipment (refer to Note 1 (xii)) the determination of depreciation for buildings, infrastructure, plant and equipment (refer to Note 1 (xiii)) the determination of employee provisions (refer to Note 1 (v))

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(i)
Basis of Accounting (cont) Unless otherwise stated, the accounting policies adopted for the reporting period are consistent with those in the prior year. Where appropriate, comparative figures have been amended to accord with current presentation, and disclosure has been made of any material changes to comparatives. The figures presented in all the Financial Statements and the notes to the Financial Statements are expressed as thousands of dollars when indicated by “$‘000”. Otherwise, the figures are exact to the nearest one dollar.
(ii)
Changes in Accounting Policies There have been no changes in accounting policies from the previous period.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(iii)
Principles of Consolidation There are no other entities controlled by Council, material or otherwise, which are required to be included in the Financial Statements.
(iv)
Revenue Recognition Income is recognised when Council obtains control of the income or the right to receive the income, it is probable that the economic benefits comprising the income will flow to the Council and the amount of the income can be measured reliably. Rates and Charges Annual rates and charges are recognised as revenues when Council issues annual rates notices, as a result of the adoption by Council of its annual budget and fulfilling the statutory process. Supplementary rates are recognised when a valuation and reassessment is completed and a supplementary rates notice issued, as a result of the adoption by Council of its annual budget and fulfilling the statutory process. A provision for doubtful debts on rates has not been established as unpaid rates represent a charge against the rateable property that will be recovered when the property is next sold. Special Rates and Charges Income from construction special rates and special charges is recognised at the commencement of each scheme. Income from shopping centre special rates and charges schemes is recognised on a yearly basis, for the length of each scheme, as the schemes run on a year by year basis. Statutory Fees and Fines Statutory fees and fines (including parking fees and fines) are recognised as revenue when the service has been provided, the payment is received, or when the penalty has been applied, whichever first occurs. User Fees and Charges User fees and charges are recognised as revenue when the service has been provided or the payment is received, whichever first occurs. Grants Grant income is recognised when Council obtains control of the grant. This is normally obtained upon their receipt (or acquittal) or upon earlier notification that a grant has been secured and are valued at their fair value at the date of transfer. Where grants recognised as revenues during the financial year were obtained on the condition that they be expended in a particular manner or used over a particular period and those conditions were undischarged at balance date, the unused grant is disclosed in Note 4. That note also discloses the amount of unused grant, recognised as revenue, in prior years that was expended on Council’s operations during the current year. Contributions Monetary and non-monetary contributions are recognised as revenue when Council obtains control over the income and/or contributed asset. Unreceived contributions over which the Council has control are recognised as receivables. Donations Donations are recognised as revenue when the Council obtains control over the assets comprising the receipts.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(iv)
Revenue Recognition (cont) Sale of Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment The profit or loss on sale of an asset is determined when control of the asset has irrevocably passed to the buyer. Interest and Rent Interest and rent are recognised as they are earned. Dividends Dividend revenue is recognised when the Council’s right to receive payment is established. Other Income Other income is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is recognised when Council gains control over the right to receive the income.
(v)
Employee Costs and Benefits The calculation of employee costs and benefits includes all relevant on-costs and are calculated as follows at reporting date: Wages and salaries and annual leave Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in the provision for employee benefits in respect of employee services up to the reporting date, classified as current liabilities and measured at their nominal values. Liabilities that are not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in the provision for employee benefits as current liabilities, measured at present value of the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. Long service leave Liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits. Current liability – unconditional long service leave is disclosed as a current liability even when Council does not expect to settle the liability within 12 months because it will not have the unconditional right to defer settlement of the entitlement should an employee take leave within 12 months. The components of this current liability are measured at: Present value – component that is not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months. Nominal value – component that is expected to be wholly settled within 12 months. Classification of employee costs Non-current liability – conditional long service leave that has been accrued, where an employee is yet to reach a qualifying term of employment, is disclosed as a non-current liability. There is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the entitlement until the employee has completed the requisite years of service. This non-current long service leave liability is measured at present value.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(vi)
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits at call and other highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
(vii)
Trade and Other Receivables Receivables are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. A provision for doubtful debts is recognised when there is objective evidence that an impairment has occurred.
(viii) Other Financial Assets Other financial assets are valued at fair value, being market value, at balance date. Term deposits are measured at amortised cost. Any unrealised gains and losses on holdings at balance date are recognised as either a revenue or expense. (ix)
Inventories Inventories held for distribution are measured at cost or weighted average cost adjusted, when applicable, for any loss of service potential. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. All other inventories, including land held for sale, are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Where inventories are acquired for no cost or nominal consideration, they are measured at current replacement cost at the date of acquisition.
(x)
Non-Current Assets Classified as Held for Sale A non-current asset classified as held for sale (including disposal groups) is measured at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell and are not subject to depreciation. Non-current assets, disposal groups and related liabilities and assets are treated as current and classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset’s sale (or disposal group sale) is expected to be completed within 12-months from the date of classification.
(xi)
Fair Value Measurement Council measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value where required or permitted by Australian Accounting Standards. AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, aims to improve consistency and reduce complexity by providing a definition of fair value and a single source of fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across Australian Accounting Standards. AASB 13 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value under AASB 13 is an exit price regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(xi) Fair Value Measurement (cont) All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the Financial Statements are categorised within a fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: Level 1: Level 2: Level 3:
Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; and Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, Council has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above. In addition, Council determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. (xii) Recognition and Measurement of Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment, and Intangibles Acquisition The purchase method of accounting is used for all acquisitions of assets, being the fair value of assets provided as consideration at the date of acquisition plus any incidental costs attributable to the acquisition. Fair value is the amount for which the asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. Where assets are constructed by Council, cost includes all materials used in construction, direct labour, borrowing costs incurred during construction and an appropriate share of directly attributable variable and fixed overheads. In accordance with Council’s Policy, the threshold limits detailed in Note 1(xiii) have applied when recognising assets within an applicable asset class and unless otherwise stated are consistent with the prior year. Roads, drainage and building assets have been brought to account in the Balance Sheet of Council at cost in the year of acquisition or construction and are subject to depreciation on a straight line basis over their useful lives from the financial year following acquisition. These assets were revalued at 30 June 2014 at their current replacement cost less accumulated depreciation (calculated on a straight line basis). Land assets have been brought to account in the Balance Sheet of Council at cost in the year of acquisition. These assets were revalued at 30 June 2014 at their current replacement cost. Land is not subject to depreciation. Parks and gardens assets, playgrounds, motor vehicles, plant and equipment, furniture and fittings, art collection assets, waste management big bins and intangible assets have been brought to account in the Balance Sheet of Council at cost in the year of acquisition or construction and are valued at cost. Council does not recognise land under roads that it controlled prior to 30 June 2008. Land under roads acquired after 30 June 2008, if material, will be brought to account using the cost basis.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(xii) Recognition and Measurement of Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment, and Intangibles (cont) Revaluation Subsequent to the initial recognition of assets, non-current physical assets, other than plant and equipment, are measured at their fair value, being the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. At balance date, the Council reviewed the carrying value of the individual classes of assets measured at fair value to ensure that each asset materially approximated its fair value. Where the carrying value materially differed from the fair value at balance date, the class of asset was revalued. Fair value valuations are determined in accordance with a valuation hierarchy. Changes to the valuation hierarchy will only occur if an external change in the restrictions or limitations of use of an asset result in changes to the permissible or practical highest and best use of the asset. Further details regarding the fair value hierarchy are disclosed at Note 30, Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment. Where the assets are revalued, the revaluation increments are credited directly to the asset revaluation reserve except to the extent that an increment reverses a prior year decrement for that class of asset that had been recognised as an expense in which case the increment is recognised as revenue up to the amount of the expense. Revaluation decrements are recognised as an expense except where prior increments are included in the asset revaluation reserve for that class of asset in which case the decrement is taken to the reserve to the extent of the remaining increments. Within the same class of assets, revaluation increments and decrements within the year are offset. The Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2015 reflect the revaluation of assets that occurred on 30 June 2014. The next revaluation is due to be reflected in the Financial Statements for year ending 30 June 2016. Council’s Valuer’s valuation, in the case of land and buildings is determined in accordance with the Valuation of Land Act 1960. The valuation is calculated using market value, as a fair value, based on existing use. For drainage, roads, streets and bridges assets, the valuation represents an estimate of written down current replacement costs determined by reference to engineering construction plans and Melbourne Water base maps after taking into account construction costs written down for the current condition of the assets and the impact of any economic or technical obsolescence. Other class of assets are not revalued. (xiii) Depreciation and Amortisation of Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangibles Infrastructure assets, buildings, land improvements, plant and equipment, and other assets having limited useful lives are systematically depreciated over their useful lives to Council in a manner which reflects consumption of the service potential embodied in those assets. Estimates of remaining useful lives and residual values are made on a regular basis with major asset classes reassessed annually. Depreciation rates and methods are reviewed annually. Depreciation for roads and drainage assets are depreciated from the financial year following acquisition or construction. Where assets have separate identifiable components that are subject to regular replacement, these components are assigned distinct useful lives and residual values and a separate depreciation rate is determined for each component. Straight line depreciation is charged based on the residual useful life as determined each year. Depreciation periods used are listed below and are consistent with the prior year unless otherwise stated. Land is not a depreciable asset. Council’s art collection assets are not considered depreciable.

(xiii) Depreciation and Amortisation of Infrastructure, Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangibles (cont) Depreciation of all assets is provided using the straight line basis with rates that are reviewed each reporting period. The 2015 depreciation rates have changed for the asset categories listed in the 2014 table below. The new depreciation rates are incorporated in the 2015 table along with the unchanged asset categories. The changes occurred on 1 July 2014. Council conducted a review of the useful lives of assets, with assistance from a consultant, to reflect the usage of the assets in the current environment. The threshold limit for capitalisation remains unchanged for all asset classes. 2015 Asset Category Roads, streets and bridges Roads – seals Roads – sub-structure Bridges, medians & local area traffic management Footpaths Kerb, channel and medians Drainage Parks and gardens Playgrounds Freehold buildings Freehold land Motor vehicles Plant and equipment Furniture and fittings Waste management big bins Works of art

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(xiv) Work in Progress Any work in progress at the end of a financial year is identified and recorded as a non-current asset in the Balance Sheet. Upon completion of each project, the value of work in progress will be transferred to the appropriate non-current depreciable asset class within infrastructure, property plant and equipment of the Balance Sheet and will be subject to appropriate depreciation charges thereafter. (xv)
Repairs and Maintenance Routine maintenance, repair costs and minor renewal costs are expensed as incurred. Where the repair relates to the replacement of a component of an asset and the cost exceeds the capitalisation threshold, the cost is capitalised and depreciated. The carrying value of the replaced asset is expensed.
(xvi) Impairment of Assets At each reporting date, the Council reviews the carrying value of its assets to determine whether there is any indication that these assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the assets carrying value. Any excess of the assets’ carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the comprehensive income statement, unless the asset is carried at the revalued amount in which case, the impairment loss is recognised directly against the revaluation surplus in respect of the same class of asset to the extent that the impairment loss does not exceed the amount in the revaluation surplus for that same class of asset. (xvii) Investment Property Investment property, if any, is held to generate long-term rental yields. Investment property is measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Costs incurred subsequent to initial acquisition are capitalised when it is probable that future economic benefit in excess of the originally assessed performance of the asset will flow to Council. Subsequent to initial recognition at cost, investment property is carried at fair value, determined annually by a valuer. Changes to fair value are recorded in the Comprehensive Income Statement in the period that they arise. Rental income from the leasing of investment properties is recognised in the Comprehensive Income Statement, when invoiced, on a straight line basis over the lease term. (xviii) Accounting for Investments in Associates Associates are all entities over which Council has significant influence, but not control or joint control. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The investment was initially recorded at cost and adjusted thereafter for post-acquisition changes in the Council’s share of the net assets of the entities. Council’s share of the financial result of the entities is recognised in the Comprehensive Income Statement. Council has an equity interest share in the following associate: 42.40% (42.86% in 2014) in the Yarra Plenty Regional Library; Council’s share is based on the total of contributions paid by Council, since the inception of the Library, as a percentage of the total contributions paid by the three Councils. The Yarra Plenty Regional Library is an independent legal entity with an Executive Management Team, which is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the organisation. Banyule is one of three Councils with a stake in the Library and each of the three Councils has put forward two members which make up the six-person Regional Library Board.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(xix) Investments Investments other than investments in associates are measured at cost. Regional Kitchen Pty Ltd and RFK Pty Ltd (trading as Community Chef) are related but separate entities involved in the production of delivered meals. Regional Kitchen Pty Ltd owns its land, buildings and the production facilities where the meals are made. Regional Kitchen Pty Ltd leases the building and facilities to RFK Pty Ltd who are responsible for the operation of the facility including the production of the meals and their delivery to the Council members. (xx) Trust Funds and Deposits Amounts received as deposits and retention amounts controlled by Council are recognised as trust funds until they are returned, transferred in accordance with the purpose of the receipt, or forfeited (refer to Note 34). (xxi) Borrowings Borrowings are initially measured at fair value, being the cost of the interest bearing liabilities, net of transaction costs. The measurement basis subsequent to initial recognition depends on whether the Council has categorised its interest bearing liabilities as either financial liabilities designated at fair value through the profit and loss, or financial liabilities at amortised cost. Any difference between the initial recognised amount and the redemption value is recognised in net result over the period of the borrowing using the effective interest method. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the interest bearing liabilities. The Council determines the classification of its interest bearing liabilities at initial recognition. (xxii) Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred, except where they are capitalised as part of a qualifying asset constructed by Council. Except where specific borrowings are obtained for the purpose of specific asset acquisition, the weighted average interest rate applicable to borrowings at balance date is used to determine the borrowing costs to be capitalised. Borrowing costs include interest on bank overdrafts, interest on borrowings and finance lease charges (if any). (xxiii) Allocation between Current and Non-Current In the determination of whether an asset or liability is current or non-current, consideration is given to the time when each asset or liability is expected to be settled. The asset or liability is classified as current if it is expected to be settled within the next 12 months, being the Council’s operational cycle, or if Council does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. (xxiv) Contingent Assets and Contingent Liabilities and Commitments Contingent assets (if any) and contingent liabilities are not recognised in the Balance Sheet, but are disclosed by way of a Note (Note 43) and, if quantifiable, are measured at nominal value. Contingent assets and liabilities are presented inclusive of GST receivable or payable respectively. Commitments are not recognised in the Balance Sheet. Commitments are disclosed at their nominal value and inclusive of the GST payable (Notes 41 and 42).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont)
(xxv) Financial Guarantees Financial guarantee contracts are not recognised as a liability in the balance sheet unless the lender has exercised their right to call on the guarantee or Council has other reasons to believe that it is probable that, that right will be exercised. Details of guarantees that Council has provided, that are not recognised in the balance sheet are disclosed at Note 43 Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. (xxvi)Operating Leases Lease payments for operating leases are required by the accounting standard to be recognised on a straight line basis, rather than expensed in the years in which they are incurred. (xxvii)Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. (xxviii)Pending Accounting Standards Certain new Australian Accounting Standards have been issued that are not mandatory for the 30 June 2015 reporting period. Council has assessed these pending standards and has identified that no material impact will flow from the application of these standards in future reporting periods.

BUDGET COMPARISON
The budget comparison notes compare Council’s financial plan, expressed through its annual budget, with actual performance. The Local Government (Planning and Reporting) Regulations 2014 requires explanation by any material variances. Council has adopted a materiality threshold of the lower of $1.0million or 20% (if over $500,000) where further explanation is warranted. Explanations have not been provided for variations below the materiality threshold unless the variance is considered to be material because of its nature. The budget figures detailed below are those adopted by Council on 23 June 2014. The Budget was based on assumptions that were relevant at the time of adoption of the Budget. Council sets guidelines and parameters for the revenue and expense targets in this budget in order to meet Council’s planning and financial performance targets for both the short and long-term. These notes are prepared to meet the requirements of the Local Government Act 1989 and the Local Government (Planning and Reporting) Regulations 2014. (a)

Contributions income
Council received 50% ($1.83M) (operating) and $454K (capital) of next year’s Victoria Grants Commission funding paid in advance. Subsidies for the operation of St Hellier and Joyce Avenue Child Care Centres were $347K more than budgeted. These subsidies allow the Centres to care for more children with a lower cost to parents in the form of fees. Interest income received was $785K above budget, as Council had additional cash holdings from the sale of a former school site. Interest on General Rates is $177K above budget. Additional interest was earned due to change in instalments and more frequent interest calculations. Council received income that was not budgeted for as part of a profit sharing agreement in relation to the operation of WaterMarc Banyule. Due to a greater amount of subdivision/building activity during the year than originally anticipated, Public Open Space contributions exceeded budget by $427K.
4
Net gain on disposal of infrastructure, property, plant and equipment
Council sold one former school site during the year and made a net gain of $10.18M on the sale. At the time the budget was set, this sale was expected to occur during the 2016 financial year.
5
Employee costs
The yearly costs of workcover for Council staff came in $211K under budget as a result of Council maintaining a safe work environment with less claims. Across Council there were savings related to the Enterprise Agreement increase being slightly less than budgeted, as well as overtime and training savings within the Leisure Department due to the new Enterprise Agreement provisions. There were savings within the Corporate Services department due to the merging of two managerial roles as well as a number of staff retirements and vacancies that were not immediately back-filled.
6
Materials, contracts and services
The energy efficient public lighting project was $1.74M under budget, with $1.66M in savings for the project and a small balance to be carried forward to finalise the works. The expenditure cost for the West Heidelberg Community Hub project is $400K under budget as the works will be capitalised as leasehold improvements instead of expensed. The operational costs for running Council’s plant/fleet came in $685K under budget. Any savings are put towards the Plant Reserve. Waste Disposal costs for Council had savings of $824K which relate to the repeal of the carbon tax, a reduction in general waste disposal and a reduced need for green waste collection, due to a dry year.

Item Other expenses
Explanation
$97K worth of past expenses/liabilities have been reversed and reclassified as transfers to reserves. These transactions relate to putting aside a portion of the building department’s profit for future investment within the building department. There were $44K worth of savings made for internal communications, as better prices were achieved from contractors and the amount of physically published material was reduced. Council received $115K in reimbursements for out of pocket costs associated with Workcover. Due to the unpredictable nature of this item, it was not budgeted. There was $272K worth of internal waste disposal costs, which were budgeted as other expenses, but have since been reclassified as materials, contracts and services.

Motor vehicles and plant and equipment
The motor vehicles and heavy plant budgets incorporated the unspent carry forward budgets from previous financial years. As a result of this, the budgets exceeded the Depot’s operational requirements significantly. The budget process for future years have been reassessed and unspent carry forward budgets are no longer being taken into account. A number of trucks have been ordered, but delayed in delivery. These trucks are now expected to be delivered in the first quarter of next financial year.

RATES AND CHARGES
For the basis of rates calculation, Council uses Capital Improved Value as the basis of valuation of all properties within the municipality. The Capital Improved Value of a property is the value of the land, dwellings and all its improvements. The valuation base used to calculate general rates for 2014/2015 was $31,294,019,100 ($29,751,433,300 for 2013/2014). A revaluation of land for rating purposes within the Municipality was done on 1 January 2014 and the valuation was first applied in the rating period commencing on 1 July 2014. These valuations were used in the calculation of rates in the current financial year. Residential Commercial Industrial Cultural and Recreational Total general rates

30. INFRASTRUCTURE, PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (cont) Valuation of Land and Buildings At 30 June 2014, Council’s land and buildings were restated to Council’s valuation of fair value based on existing use. The valuations were carried out by Council’s Valuer, Mr P Kemm, A.A.P.I. in accordance with the basis of valuation referred to in Note 1(xi). The valuation of land and buildings is at fair value, being market value based on highest and best use permitted by relevant land planning provisions. Where land use is restricted through existing planning provisions, the valuation is reduced to reflect this limitation. This adjustment is an unobservable input in the valuation. The adjustment has no impact on the comprehensive Income Statement. Specialised land is valued at fair value using site values adjusted for englobo (undeveloped and/or unserviced) characteristics, access rights and private interests of other parties and entitlements or infrastructure assets and services. This adjustment is an unobservable input in the valuation. The adjustment has no impact on the comprehensive Income Statement. Any significant movements in the unobservable inputs for land and land under roads (if any) will have a significant impact on the fair value of these assets. Details of Council’s land and buildings and information about the fair value hierarchy as at 30 June 2015 are as follows:
Freehold land – (specialised) Freehold buildings – (specialised) Total

No transfers between levels occurred during the year. Valuation of Infrastructure As at 30 June 2014, valuation of Council’s bridges, median and drainage assets has been determined by the valuation undertaken by Ms Claudia Oqueli, Council’s Asset Engineer – Asset Management. The valuation is at fair value based on replacement cost, less accumulated depreciation in accordance with the basis of valuation referred to in Note 1(xi). As at 30 June 2014, Council’s road assets (excluding bridges and medians) were restated to Council’s valuation of current replacement cost. The valuation of these assets was carried out by Peter Batson, Manager – Asset System Victoria, SMEC Australia Pty Ltd, in accordance with the basis of valuation referred to in Note 1(xi). SMEC Pavement Management system software was used to assist with this process. A small portion of the road asset valuations was conducted by Ms Claudia Oqueli, Council’s Asset engineer, using the same basis of valuation as SMEC, to complement the area variances caused by the limitation of SMEC’s software. The valuation is at fair value based on replacement cost less accumulated depreciation as at the date of valuation. Details of Council’s infrastructure and information about the fair value hierarchy as at 30 June 2015 are as follows:
Roads, streets and bridges Drainage Total

30. INFRASTRUCTURE, PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (cont) Description of Significant Unobservable Inputs into Level 3 Valuations Specialised land is valued using a market based direct comparison technique. Significant unobservable inputs include the extent and impact of restriction of use and the market cost of land per square metre. The extent and impact of restrictions on use varies and results in a reduction to surrounding land value between 0% and 90%. The market value of land varies significantly depending on the location of the land and the current market conditions. Currently land values range between $25 and $2,500 per square metre. Specialised buildings are valued using a depreciated replacement cost technique. Significant unobservable inputs include the current replacement cost and remaining useful lives of buildings. Current replacement costs is calculated on a square metre basis and ranges from $265 to $3,820 per square metre. The useful lives of buildings are 100 years. Replacement cost is sensitive to changes in market conditions, with any increase or decrease in cost flowing through to the valuation. Useful lives of buildings may be subject to variation due to changes in expectations or requirements that could either shorten or extend the useful lives of buildings. Infrastructure assets are valued based on the depreciated replacement cost. Significant unobservable inputs include the current replacement cost and remaining useful lives of infrastructure. The useful lives of infrastructure vary from 25 years to 100 years. Replacement cost is sensitive to changes in market conditions, with any increase or decrease in cost flowing through to the valuation. Useful lives of infrastructure may be subject to variation due to changes in use, expectations or requirements that could either shorten or extend the useful lives of infrastructure assets.

The above tables generally indicate usage of funds for budgeted capital works and recovery of capital from previous expenditures and investment projects in the ordinary course of business. These amounts are determined in accordance with the approved budget and subsequent Council reports. The Public Open Space Reserve is a statutory reserve where developers contribute income to the reserve by law. The funds are spent on ‘public open spaces’, for example playgrounds. The Off-Street Car Parking Reserve is no longer operational due to a change in legislation. Developers did contribute income to the reserve. Funds were used to provide additional car parking spaces in the area where the funds were generated from. The General Reserve is maintained to have money set aside for future projects. The Plant and Equipment Reserve is used to fund the purchase of vehicles (all types) and some items of plant and equipment. The Strategic Properties Reserve is maintained to fund the purchasing, development and selling of properties with a view to add income to Council.

SUPERANNUATION
Banyule City Council makes the majority of its employer superannuation contributions in respect to its employees to the Local Authorities Superannuation Fund – Vision Super (the Fund). This Fund has two categories of membership, accumulation and defined benefit, each of which is funded differently. Obligations for contributions to the Fund are recognised as an expense in the Comprehensive Income Statement when they are made or due. Accumulation Fund The Fund’s accumulation categories, Vision MySuper/Vision Super Saver, receives both employer and optional employee contributions on a progressive basis. Employer contributions are normally based on a fixed percentage of employee earnings (for the year ended 30 June 2015, this was 9.50% required under Superannuation Guarantee legislation) (for 2013/2014, this was 9.25%). Defined Benefit Plan Banyule City Council does not use defined benefit accounting for its defined benefit obligations under the Fund’s Defined Benefit category. This is because the Fund’s Defined Benefit category is a pooled multi-employer sponsored plan. There is no proportional split of the defined benefit liabilities, assets or costs between the participating employers as the defined benefit obligation is a floating obligation between the participating employers and the only time that the aggregate obligation is allocated to specific employers is when a call is made. As a result, the level of participation of Banyule City Council in the Fund cannot be measured as a percentage compared with other participating employers. Therefore, the Actuary is unable to allocate benefit liabilities, assets and costs between employers for the purposes of AASB 119.

(a) Council is currently acting as guarantor for loans taken out by four Sporting Clubs to be used for significant capital improvements to the Council’s sporting facilities that are on Council land. At balance date, the total outstanding balance on these loans is $48,476 ($91,112 in 2014). At balance date we have received assurances from the Clubs that they are continuing to meet repayments in accordance with the requirements of their individual loan agreements. The amount disclosed for financial guarantee in this note is the nominal amount of the underlying loan that is guaranteed by Council, not the fair value of the financial guarantee. (b)
Business card facility limit $200,000 ($200,000 in 2014).
(ii) Contingent Liabilities arising from Public/Products Liabilities As a local authority with ownership of numerous parks, reserves, roads and other land holdings, the Council is regularly met with claims and demands allegedly arising from incidents which occur on land belonging to Council. There are a number of outstanding claims against Council in this regard. Council carries $400 million of public/products liability insurance however the maximum liability of Council in any single claim is the extent of its excess. The primary insurer is MAV Insurance – Liability Mutual Insurance. There are no claims of which Council is aware which would fall outside the terms of Council’s policy. (iii) Contingent Liability arising from Professional Indemnity As a local authority with statutory regulatory responsibilities, including the responsibility of issuing permits and approvals, Council is met with claims and demands for damages allegedly arising from actions of Council or its Officers. Council carries $300 million of professional indemnity insurance however the maximum liability of Council in any single claim is the extent of its excess. The primary insurer is MAV Insurance – Liability Mutual Insurance. There are no instances or claims of which Council is aware which would fall outside the terms of Council’s policy. (iv)
Flood Damage There may be some unquantified costs, to be borne by Council, relating to a potential flood damage claim against Council.
(v)
Superannuation Contributions Banyule City Council has obligations under a defined benefit superannuation scheme that may result in the need to make additional contributions to the scheme to ensure that the liabilities of the Fund are covered by the assets of the Fund. As a result of the volatility in financial markets the likelihood of making such contributions in future periods exists. At this point in time it is not known if additional contributions will be required, their timing or potential amount. Funding arrangements Council makes employer contributions to the defined benefit category of the Fund at rates determined by the Trustee, on the advice of the Fund’s Actuary. The Fund’s latest actuarial investigation was held as at 30 June 2014 and it was determined that the Vested Benefit Indexed (VBI) of the defined benefit category of which Banyule City Council is a contributing employer was 103.4%.

Superannuation Contributions (cont)
2015 $‘000
2014 $‘000
To determine the VBI, the Fund Actuary used the following long-term assumptions: Net investment returns Salary information Price inflation (CPI)
7.50%pa 4.25%pa 2.75%pa
Vision Super has advised that the estimated VBI as at 30 June 2015 was 105.8%. The VBI is to be used as the primary funding indicator. Because the VBI was above 100%, the actuarial investigation determined the defined benefit category was in a satisfactory financial position and that no change was necessary to the defined benefit category’s funding arrangements from prior years. Employer Contributions Regular Contributions On the basis of the results of the most recent full actuarial investigation conducted by the Fund’s Actuary as at 30 June 2014, Council makes employer contributions to the Fund’s Defined Benefit category at rates determined by the Fund’s Trustee. For the year ended 30 June 2015, this rate was 9.50% of members’ salaries. This rate will increase in line with any increase to the Superannuation Guarantee contribution rate. In addition, Council reimburses the Fund to cover the excess of the benefits paid as a consequence of retrenchment above the funded resignation or retirement benefit. Funding Calls If the Defined Benefit category is in an unsatisfactory financial position at actuarial investigation or the Defined Benefit category’s VBI is below its shortfall limit at any time other than the date of the actuarial investigation, the Defined Benefit category has a shortfall for the purposes of SPS 160 and the Fund is required to put a plan in place so that the shortfall is fully funded within three years of the shortfall occurring. The Fund monitors its VBI on a quarterly basis and the Fund has set its shortfall limit at 97%. In the event that the Fund Actuary determines that there is a shortfall based on the above requirement, the Fund’s participating employers (including Banyule City Council) are required to make an employer contribution to cover the shortfall. Using the agreed methodology, the shortfall amount is apportioned between the participating employers based on the pre-1 July 1993 and post-30 June 1993 service liabilities of the Fund’s Defined Benefit category, together with the employer’s payroll at 30 June 1993 and at the date the shortfall has been calculated. Due to the nature of the contractual obligations between the participating employers and the Fund, and that the Fund includes lifetime pensioners and their reversionary beneficiaries, it is unlikely that the Fund will be wound up. If there is a surplus in the Fund, the surplus cannot be returned to the participating employers. In the event that a participating employer is wound-up, the Defined Benefit obligations of that employer will be transferred to that employer’s successor. Latest actuarial investigation surplus amounts The Fund’s latest actuarial investigation as at 30 June 2014 identified the following in the defined benefit category of which Banyule City Council is a contributing employer.

A VBI surplus of $77.1 million; and A total service liability surplus of $236 million. The VBI surplus means that the market value of the Fund’s assets supporting the defined benefit obligations exceed the vested benefits that the defined benefit members would have been entitled to if they had all exited on 30 June 2014. The total service liability surplus means that the current value of the assets in the Fund’s defined benefit category plus expected future contributions exceeds the value of expected future benefits and expenses. Council was notified of the results of the actuarial investigation during January 2015. Superannuation Contributions Contributions by Banyule City Council (excluding any unfunded liability payments) to the above superannuation plans for the financial year ended 30 June 2015 are as follows: Scheme Vision Super Vision Super Employee’s Personal

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(i)
Objectives and Policies Council’s principal financial instruments comprise cash assets, term deposits, receivables (excluding statutory receivables), payables (excluding statutory payables) and bank borrowings. Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument is disclosed in Note 1 of the Financial Statements. Risk management is carried out by senior management under policies approved by Council. These policies include identification and analysis of the risk exposure to Council and appropriate procedures, controls and risk minimisation.
(ii)
Market Risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of our financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Council’s exposures to market risk are primarily through interest rate risk with only insignificant exposure to other price risks and no exposure to foreign currency risk.
(iii)
Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the value of a financial instrument or cash flows associated with the instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Interest rate liability risk arises primarily from long term loans and borrowings at fixed rates which exposes Council to fair value interest rate risk. Council does not hold any interest bearing financial instruments that are measured at fair value, and therefore has no exposure to fair value interest rate risk. Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Council has minimal exposure to cash flow interest rate risk through its cash and deposits that are at floating rates. Investment of surplus funds is made with approved financial institutions under the Local Government Act 1989. Council manages interest rate risk by adopting an investment policy that ensures:
Diversification of investment product; Monitoring of return on investments; and Benchmarking of returns and comparison with budget.
There has been no significant change in Council’s exposure, or its objectives, policies and processes for managing interest rate risk or the methods used to measure this risk from the previous reporting year. Interest rate movements have not been sufficiently significant during the year to have an impact on Council’s year end result.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (cont)
(iv)
Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that a contracting entity will not complete its obligations under a financial instrument and cause Council to make a financial loss. Council has exposure to credit risk on some financial assets included in Council’s Balance Sheet. To help manage this risk Council: has a policy for establishing credit limits for the entities Council deals with may require collateral where appropriate will only invest surplus funds with financial institutions which have a recognised credit rating specified in our investment policy. Trade and other receivables consist of a large number of customers, spread across the ratepayer, business and government sectors. Credit risk associated with the Council’s financial assets is minimal because the main debtor is secured by a charge over the rateable property. There are no material assets which are individually determined to be impaired. Council may also be subject to credit risk for transactions which are not included in the Balance Sheet, such as when a guarantee is provided for another party. Details of Council’s contingent liabilities are disclosed in Note 43. The maximum exposure to credit risk on recognised financial assets at the reporting date is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the Balance Sheet and notes to the Financial Statements. Council does not hold any collateral.
(v)
Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk includes the risk that, as a result of our operational liquidity requirements, Council: will not have sufficient funds to settle a transaction when required, will be forced to sell a financial asset at below value, or may be unable to settle or recover a financial asset. To help reduce these risks Council: has a liquidity policy which targets a minimum and average level of cash and cash equivalents to be maintained has readily accessible standby facilities and other funding arrangements in place has a liquidity portfolio structure that requires surplus funds to be invested within various bands of liquid instruments monitors budget to actual performance on a regular basis set limits on borrowings relating to the percentage of loans to rate revenue and percentage of loan principal repayments to rate revenue. The Council’s maximum exposure to liquidity risk is the carrying amounts of financial liabilities as disclosed in the face of the Balance Sheet and the amounts related to financial guarantees disclosed in Note 43 and is deemed insignificant based on prior periods data and current assessment of risk. There has been no significant change in Council’s exposure, or its objectives, policies and processes for managing liquidity risk or the methods used to measure this risk from the previous reporting year. With the exception of borrowings, all financial liabilities are expected to be settled within normal terms of trade. Details of the maturity profile for borrowings are disclosed at Note 35. Unless otherwise stated, the carrying amounts of financial instruments reflect their fair value.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (cont)

Sensitivity Disclosure Analysis Taking into account past performance, future expectations, economic forecasts and management’s knowledge and experience of the financial markets, Council believes the following movements are ‘reasonably possible’ over the next 12 months: - A parallel shift of +0.5% and -0.5% in market interest rates (AUD) from year end rates of 2.76%. These movements will not have a material impact on the valuation of Council’s financial assets and liabilities, nor will they have a material impact on the results of Council’s operations.
(vii)
Fair Value Unless otherwise stated, the carrying amount of financial instruments reflect their fair value. Fair Value Hierarchy Council’s financial assets and liabilities are not valued in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. Council’s financial assets and liabilities are measured at amortised cost.
