COMMODORE'S MESSAGE
2008. Much of this growth arose from the newly introduced social membership and term member ship. The long-term viability and prosperity of the Club rests pri marily with the membership base. The new Management under the leadership of the new General Manager, Dr Matthew Yap will be entrusted to grow this membership base as the industry gets news of our newly-approved development master plan.
It is my privilege to once again present this year's Annual Report on behalf of the RSYC Commit
tee. As I step clown after a threeyear term as the Commodore in FY
2009/10, I would like to provide members with a report for the last 12 months and a summary of how much the Club has achieved over
the last three years.
The Development Sub-Committee worked tirelessly towards approval for the marina development, com prising of the vertical dry stack, accommodations and breakwater
construction. I am proud to report that the Urban Re-development Au thority has granted the approval for the Accommodation Wing which is part of our development plan as at May 2010. As the RSYC Main Com mittee and Management finalise loan arrangements, construction will be carried out in phases over
The Club's event range expanded from talks to intra-club tourna ments with Raffles Marina and Na
tional Service Resort Country Club. Amidst events, as part of corporate social responsibility, several of RSYC's corporate partners included Singapore Association of Visually Handicapped (SAVH) and Acapella Society.
We are very honoured to have our distinguished Patron, President SR Nathan attend our RSYC Charity Golf Dinner on 2 October 2009. The Club has achieved the land
mark sum of more than $150,000
to Parkinson's Disease Society of Singapore, the appointed charity beneficiary. A key highlight and achievement for the Club is the completion of the RSYC Heritage Book. A long-term desire since 1987, and through successive commodores and heri

The RSYC is at the precipice of three major redevel opment efforts including an extension of the Marina Lodge, the building of a dry-stacker, and the building of a solid-wall breakwater. A major hurdle of leasing seabed space has been overcome when the MPA is sued notice of no objection for the seabed space. The Singapore Sports Council subsequently approved that we lease an additional cross-section of seabed space for the breakwater. It now leaves only the details of a financing package to be put in place before the rede velopment plans are tabled for approval by the general membership at an ECM. Throughout the present year, the DSC has been in volved in meeting and supplying information to vari ous authorities for our redevelopment efforts. This has included considerable effort to get the authorities to relax a little on the regulations governing plot ratio and "commercial-use" quotas. Needless to say no flexibil ity was shown, and we now await approval for the ex tension of an additional 31 rooms.
Equally busy have been various efforts with consultants to draw up detailed plans for the redevelopment of the RSYC physical structures. The Development sub committee considered a host of options (e.g., no less than five design options for the dry-stacker including: roof, no roof; for different lengths of boat; number of

The Development Sub-Committee had worked close ly with the Main Committee every step of the way in meeting the challenges of getting approval from the relevant authorities. Rest assured that this synergy and continuity will be maintained as we move to the next Main Committee.

In April 2009, the Committee implemented the policy of making the Club and its facilities exclusive for mem bers' usage, with particular reference to disallowing unaccompanied non-members from using our Food & Beverage outlets.

We are working closely with the new F&B Manager in the following objeclives:• Increase the profitability of food revenue. • Maintain competitive pricing with various member dining options. • Establish a predictable quality expectation of RSYC menu offerings. • Create an improved desire of member dining patronage. MARINA LODGE
Launched in 2001, the occupancy and average room rates have increased. For the year 2009, we achieved a profit of $763,000 against the budget of $727,000 with occupancy rate of 88%.

All our security officers are now trained and certified in the Workforce Skills Qualifications(WSQ)programme.
The Security Department will progressively send all of our security officers for various WSQ upgrading courses offered by the WDA to improve their overall operational capabilities. In order to serve members and their guests better, the Security Department will now be conducting training for their officers in customer service. This in-house training will provide our security staff with more confidence and better able to handle
enquiries and assist members and guests. The first phase of the CCTV system is In place to ensure round-the-clock monitoring of the surveillance capa bilities within the Club's perimeter, car park and ma rina areas and this will enable the officers to respond to emergencies promptly. There will be progressive improvements as we are in the process of installing a barcode scanning system for the work crew in our marina and keep abreast of the requirements by the authorities. Moving forward, the Security Department will continue to improve the overall security service standards in the Club. CONCLUSION
Lastly, it remains for me to thank the Board and Mem bers of the Sub-Committee for their hard work and in

The year 2009 ended on a quite positive note for the Marine Department. Though it has been another chal lenging year for the department with the departure of two large yachts after a long-term stay in the marina, but in consolation, we have achieved higher revenue despite their departure. Over the last three years, there has been a steady increase in the number of visiting yacht arrivals to the marina as well. Most of these visi tors have given positive remarks about the department

The department is also looking forward to a planned upgrading of the dry berths which has progressed sig nificantly over the months, thanks to all MC members and especially the Development Sub-Committee mem bers who have spent and sacrificed incalculable manhours, debating and planning the master development plan for the Club which includes the boat stackers.
RSYC also plans to conduct mini-regattas and quarterly races amongst its participants to further heighten their interest and competitiveness in the sport of sailing. For the year 2009-2010 RSYC and MOB are working closely with four schools and more than 60 students on 24 weeks.

Year 2009 was an eventful year for membership as we had embarked on numerous marketing promotions and activities to fill the calendar. There were additions
to the dedicated membership sales team to focus on expanding the market share. Unfortunately, these ac tions have not been able to translate into membership sales.
Major events included the Boat Asia 2009 (23 - 26 April 2009) which RSYC embarked to create awareness and initiated the membership drive. Social member ship was introduced to target at non-boaters who are passionate about lifestyle and activities.

The Club's financial performance in comparison with 2009 budget was as following: a. F&B - deficit contribution of $326,217
F&B revenue increased in comparison with 2009
budget after reduced 35% revenue due to member exclusive did not corresponding reduction in payroll costs and other direct costs. F&B other direct costs were higher by 77.24% due to under estimate operating costs.
b. Rooms - surplus contribution of $763,150 Marina Lodge revenue was lower than 2009 budget and last year, however with containable expenditures; the contribution increased by 5%.
The budget sales of $1.7m was highly optimistic even with marketing plan targeted in Boat Asia, RSYC open house and invitation of trial membership. Additional headcounts to drive the marketing and providing better service in membership with new designation of Member Liaison Officer failed to achieve the expected increase income.
g. Non operating employee expenses of $1,598,000 Cost reduced in proportion to reduce headcounts and reduced year end payout of AWS with lump sum payout was evidence in FY 2009. h. Other Club overheads expenses of $1,481,000 Overall, well-contained and with additional
property tax saving of 40% rebate. FY 2009 had c. Jackpot - surplus contribution of $309,623
Jackpot revenue dampened by 5% compared to 2009 budget and payout percentage increased to 40% compared to 37% budget had overall affected the net collection with a drop of 38%. d. Marina - surplus contribution of $946,372

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT lo the members of Republic of Singapore Yacht Club
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Republic of Singapore Yacht Club ("the Club"), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2009, and the statement of comprehensive income, state ment of changes in accumulated fund and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The management of the Club is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with the provisions of the Societies Act, Cap 311 ("the Act") and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards. This responsibility includes: (a) devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair statement of comprehensive income and balance sheet and to maintain accountability of assets;
(b) selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and (c) making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. AUDITORS' RESPONSIBILITY
Our responsibility is lo express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the fi nancial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk as sessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. OPINION
In our opinion,
(a) the financial statements are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Act and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards so as to give a true and fair view of state of affairs of the Club as at 31 December 2009 and the results, changes in accumulated fund and cash flows of the Club for the year ended on that date; and
(b) the accounting and other records required by the Act to be kept by the Club have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS lor the financial year ended 31 December 2009
These notes form an integral part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements,
1.
GENERAL
The Republic of Singapore Yacht Club ("the Club") is registered and domiciled in Singapore. The registered office of the Club is as follows:
52 West Coast Ferry Road, Singapore 126887.
The principal activities of the Club are those of sailing, power-boating, other sea-sports and social and recreational activities for the benefit of members. 2.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards ("FRS"). The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with FRS requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Club's accounting policies. It also requires the use of accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the financial year. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.
In the current financial year, the Club has adopted all the new and revised FRSs and interpretations of FRS ("INT FRS") that are relevant to its operations and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 january 2009. The adoption of these new/revised FRSs and INT FRSs does not result in changes to the Club's accounting policies and has no material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior years.
The Club has not applied any new standard or interpretation that has been issued but is not yet effective. The new standards that have been issued and not yet effective do not have any impact on the result of current or prior years.
(b) Revenue recognition Revenue comprises the fair value for the sale of goods and rendering of services, net of goods and services tax and discounts. Revenue is only recognised when its collectibility Is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognised as follows: Revenue from the sale of food and beverage is recognised when served and accepted by members. Rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Revenue from jackpot machines is recognised on a daily receipt basis. Revenue from marine sports and other social activities, except for berth license fees and fuel sales. Is recognised upon the rendering of services to and acceptance by the customer. Berth license fees are recognised over the lease period of the berths. Fuel sales are recognised upon delivery to and acceptance by the customer.
Membership subscriptions are recognised as revenue at the time when monthly subscriptions become due and payable.
Entrance fee income is recognised when members are admitted. Transfer fee income is recognised upon acceptance of the transfers by the Club Committee.
Interest income is recognised on a lime-proportion basis using the effective interest method.
.. jiiiiK:.i^RE YACHT CLUB
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the finnncial year ended 31 December 2009
(c) Taxation
Under Section 11(1) of the Singapore Income Tax Act, the Club is deemed not to be carrying on a business it 50% or more of its gross receipts on revenue accounts are received from its members.
Where the Club is deemed not to be carrying on a business, any surplus accruing to members from subscriptions, contributions and charges paid by them will not be regarded as Income. However, for income tax purposes the Club will be liable to tax on income from other sources derived from dealings with non-members. Such income is taxed at the lower of the rates set out in Part B, Second Schedule of
the Singapore Income Tax Act and the corporate tax rate. (d) Property, plant and equipment (i)
Measurement
Property, plant and equipment All property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. Component of costs The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment includes its purchase price and any cost that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management .The projected cost of dismantlement, removal or restoration is also included as part of the cost of plant and equipment if the obligation for the dismantlement, removal or restoration is incurred as a concequence of acquiring or using the asset. (ii) Depreciation
Leasehold land and buildings are depreciated over the period of the lease which expires on 14 July 2027. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line basis so as to write off the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives as follows;
Plant and equipment Furniture, fittings and equipment
5-10 years 3 - 5 years
Development in progress is not depreciated as the asset is not yet available for use. The residual values and useful lives of property, plant and equipment are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
(Hi) Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment that has already been recognised is added to the carrying amount of the asset only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Club, and the cost of the item can be
measured reliably. Other subsequent expenditure is recognised as an expense during the financial year in which it is incurred. (iv) Disposal
On disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and its carrying amounts is taken to the statement of comprehensive income. Any amount in revaluation reserve relating to that asset is transferred to the accumulated fund directly. (e) Impairment (i) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever there is any indication that these assets may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and value in use) of the asset is estimated to determine the amount of impairment loss.
25 ANNUAL REPORT 2009 / 2010
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for ihc firiLincial vear ended 31 December 200^
For the purpose of impairment testing, recoverable amount is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely Independent of those from other assets. If this is the case, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit (CGU)to which the asset belongs. If the recoverable amount of the asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. The impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. An impairment loss for an asset is reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the assets' recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The carrying amount of an asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of impairment loss for an asset is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.
(ii) Impairment of Financial Assets
The Club assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset's
carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account. The amount of the loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed. Any subsequent reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date.
(f) Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a first-in-
first-out basis and includes freight, transport and handling charges. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less anticipated cost of disposal and afler making allowance for damages, obsoletes and slow moving items. (g) Borrowings and borrowing costs Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowing costs are taken to the income and expenditure account over the period of borrowing using the effective interest method.
(h) Provisions for other liabilities and charges Provisions are recognised when the Club has a present obligation (legal or constructive) where, as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Club expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as finance costs.
26 REPUBLIC OF SINGAPORE YACHT CLUB
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAE STATEMENTS for the financial year ended 31 Decemher 2009
Provisions are revievyed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If
it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. (i) Employee benefits (i) Defined contribution plans Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Club pays fixed contributions into separate entities such as the Central Provident Fund, and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if any of the funds does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits relating to employee service in the current and preceding financial years. The Club's contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the financial year to which they relate. (11) Employee leaves entitlements Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A
provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the balance sheet date. (j) Financial Instruments (i)
Financial Assets
The Club's principal financial assets are trade and other receivables and bank balances. Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less allowance for impairment. An allowance for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Club will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. The amount of the allowance is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Other receivables are stated at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, using e effective interest method.
(ii) Financial Liabilities
Trade and other payables are stated at fair value, and subsequently measured at amortised cost, using effective interest method (k) Foreign Currencies (i) Functional and Presentation Currency Items included in the financial statements of the Club are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Club operates (the "functional currency"). The financial statements are presented in United States Dollar, which is the Club's functional and presentation currency. (ii) Foreign Currencies Transactions
Foreign currency transactions during the year are translated into recording currencies at the exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates.

The Club, being a registered society and incapable of holding any interest in land has appointed a Trust Company as its custodian trustee to take the sub-lease from the main lessor. The leasehold land and buildings were mortgaged to secure bank facilities for the Club (See Note 19 to the financial statements).
As mentioned in Note 2(d}, leasehold land and buildings are being depreciated on a straight-line basis to write off the entire cost by 14 July 2027, when the lease will expire. Given its special-purpose use and 32 REPUBLIC OF SINGAPORE YACHT CLUB
NOTES TO THE EINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the financial year ended 31 December 200'J
the lack of comparable market prices it has not been possible to obtain a reliable open market valuation of the leasehold land and buildings. As the leasehold land and buildings are held for long-term and for the benefit of the members, there is no reason to believe that the carrying amount is inappropriate. 10.

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
The main risks arising from the Club's financial instruments are credit, foreign currency, and interest rate and liquidity risks. The policies of managing each of these risks are summarised below: (i)
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that members may default on their obligations to repay the amounts owing to the Club, resulting in a loss to the Club. The Club has procedures in place to monitor collections from members.
Information regarding financial assets that are either past due or impaired is disclosed in Note 11 (Due from Members).
The Club has no significant concentration of credit risk.
(ii) Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk arises from changes in foreign exchange rates that may have an adverse effect on the Club in the current reporting period and in future years. The Club's exposure to foreign currency risk is minimal as ail transactions are dealt with in local currency. (ill) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market interest rates. 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. Fair value interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a
financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Club has no significant interest-bearing assets except as disclosed in Note 10. However, the Club's income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. (iv) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Society is unable to meet its obligations when fall due. The
Society monitors its cash flow and it's collections on a regular basis as a means of managing liquidity risk.
