Executive Director’s Report Penny Cornah - Executive Director The Master Plumbers’ Association of Queensland (MPAQ) is the peak industry body representing plumbing contractors throughout Queensland, from sole operators to medium sized plumbing businesses and large contracting firms. Operating since 1900, MPAQ is one of Queensland’s most influential trade associations providing the industry with specialised training, advice and services to effectively strengthen and grow the businesses of our members. MPAQ is the only plumbing industry association for Queensland plumbing professionals, we represent the interests of the plumbing industry at both state and national levels. MPAQ has the vision, commitment, strength and determination to: • Be a united voice on plumbing industry issues; • Provide excellent quality membership services; and • Promote and recognise outstanding plumbing industry standards whilst simultaneously targeting undesirable plumbing practices. Our significant membership base means that we have political and lobbying strength, as well as the ability to advocate policy to all key stakeholders. We are also in a position to highlight the pivotal role that plumbing professionals play in the living standards of all Australians. We have an incredible and passionate team at MPAQ. I would like to acknowledge and thank each and every staff member for their hard work, dedication and commitment during the year. Knowing that we are making a difference to those working in the industry makes it extremely worthwhile. I simply couldn’t kick off without thanking our President, Kent Vickers. We could not be luckier than we are with Kent. He is passionate, inclusive and driven to empower us to give our all for the trade. Kent thank you for everything you do. Kent is joined by the best team going around, and I would like to thank the MPAQ Council for their commitment and support. Our board members give up their time to put in for our trade and we are truly grateful for their commitment and passion.

Representation Recent years have seen some momentous achievements at MPAQ including our work with the Government which has resulted in a strong commitment to protecting our trade. Some of the key achievements include: 2019 Financial Report | 6

• Security of payment laws, ensuring that subcontractors and specifically our members are protected from non-payment • The Services Trades Council, ensuring that plumbing has an industry specific regulatory council with MPAQ as the Chair • Non-conforming building products legislation, including point of sale, passed and implemented • Occupational licensing, ensuring that our members that are business owners are only having to pay for one licence, rather than two • Obtaining funding from the Office of Small Business Advancing Women in Business Initiative to promote women in business and in trades and Construction Skills Queensland to promote workforce development and apprenticeships in the plumbing and gas industry MPAQ continues to have input to national matters as the Secretariat for Master Plumbers Australia Ltd (MPA Ltd), which represents Master Plumber Associations across Australia and New Zealand.

Membership Services Apart from our lobbying and advocacy work, MPAQ is focussed on providing the support that our members need, MPAQ believes it is important that our members are given every opportunity to have a voice within the Association. MPAQ has developed a number of committees led by our members that provides a forum that allows them to represent their distinct and individual views. These groups include: • Maintenance and Construction Contractors Group - Members of this Group consist of the industry’s elite large maintenance and minor commercial work companies. • MPAQ Corporates Associate Committee (MCAC) - the purpose of this committee is to address current and topical issues facing products and their supply in the plumbing and gas fitting industry in Queensland. Membership of the committee is open to all financial MPAQ Corporate Associates. • Women’s Plumbing Alliance (WPA) - We know that partners of plumbers who work within the business along with those working on the tools are the lifeblood of that business and they deserve our support as well. • Major Contractors Group – this group consists of members that work on major capital infrastructure projects in Qld.

We are particularly proud of the work that all of our groups and committee’s do to help make a difference to the experiences of other members and the industry as a whole, and we believe these committees are the foundations of the work that we do as a member driven organisation. Membership for MPAQ has continued to grow and so do our benefits and services. We have over 50 benefits available for members to be able to access.

Services Trades College We are excited to announce that stage 1 of the Plumbing Industry Climate Action Centre (PICAC) Beenleigh has opened for training. The Services Trades College of Australia (TSTCA), Fire Industry Training and CEPUTEC training will all operate out of PICAC Beenleigh. TSTCA is a training College, born from industry, owned by industry and run for industry. Apart from MPAQ its partners include the Plumbers Union Queensland, the National Fire Industry Association and the Plumbing Industry Climate Action Centre. It is a centre of excellence for trade training with state of the art facilities based in Beenleigh with a smaller facility at Brendale. The College has proudly achieved a 90% apprenticeship completion rate, which is well above the national average completion rate of 55%. This facility is world leading and should turbo charge the productivity of our industry’s future, our apprentices. Penny Cornah, MPAQ’s Executive Director holds a position on the College Board to drive the strategic direction for the college. The college runs regular consultation sessions across the services trades welcoming direct feedback from employers. Genuine consultation, leads to improved training and service delivery outcomes for employers, apprentices and industry. TSTCA focusses on apprenticeship training and MPAQ continues to deliver post trade training for the industry. In this significant venture we also have another key partner and that is the Queensland Government. The Government’s commitment of $4 million towards the Centre of Excellence has turned our dream into a reality. MPAQ has not been as involved in apprenticeship training in the past as we would have liked and this development marks a significant step towards our goal of achieving this. Although it will be the centre for our apprentice training it will not be limited to apprentices. This is a huge capital investment that has been made in a real estate growth area which provides a fantastic asset for the future of our association. 7

Technical and Training Services As a Registered Training Organisation, MPAQ has developed and delivered training courses specifically for plumbers and apprentices to up skill their knowledge and qualification. MPAQ has be successful in sourcing funding subsidies from Construction Skills Queensland to help the industry with the cost of training. MPAQ has developed purpose built mobile training platforms to ensure we can bring our training to members in regional Queensland, not just in the South East corner. We also offer the flexibility of online and correspondence courses for plumbers and gasfitters. Last year our trainer Kelvin Slade delivered over 32 training courses to the industry. Congratulations to Kelvin on this huge achievement and thank you for your commitment to train our industry. Kelvin has also developed a legionella awareness course for plumbers and apprenctices which will be available from February 2020.

Events In conjunction with World Plumbing Day which was celebrated on 11 March we launched a new consumer campaign to promote the importance of using a licensed plumber and asked the public to consider what life would be like without plumbers. In a survey to our members in 2018 we found that 65% of our members identified that unlicensed people completing plumbing work was one of the biggest challenges faced in our industry. Through video and social media campaigns, MPAQ hopes to educate the community about the value of using a licensed plumber, particularly from a health and safety perspective, and how protecting the home and family safety should be at the forefront when consumers consider DIY plumbing work. The MPAQ events team were responsible for over 35 key industry events in 2018 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 2019 focusing on the professional and personal development of our members and the wider industry. One of these events was the inaugural Trades Industry Conference, a joint initiative between MPAQ and the Air Conditioning and Mechanical Contractors Association (AMCA), the Association of 2019 Financial Report | 8

Hydraulic Service Consultants Australia (AHSCA), the Backflow Prevention Association of Australia (BPAA), the Institute of Plumbing Inspectors Queensland (IPIQ), the National Fire Industry Association (NFIA) and the Queensland Gas Association (QGA). The purpose of this bi-annual event is to unite the service trades industries and address the importance of individuals and companies keeping pace in their industry by advancing their skills so they can accelerate to be a leader navigating the changing trends. The event was the first of its kind in Queensland and exceeded targets on sponsors and delegates. Another initiative that MPAQ undertakes is the appointment of plumbing and apprentice ambassadors. These ambassadors take on a year-long role of promoting the plumbing and gas industry to students and future leaders through careers expos and school visits. Promoting the trade is essential to ensuring its longevity and continued professionalism. This year we appointed Natalie Christian and Patrick Wright, our two apprentice ambassadors, and Daniel McClinton, our plumbing ambassador, who were all appointed at World Plumbing Day.

Plumbing and Gas Industry Awards The premier event for the industry, the Plumbing and Gas Industry Awards presentation dinner was hosted in July. This prestigious awards program consistently recognises the high level of professionalism and excellence in our industry. The awards program celebrates the apprentices, plumbers, gasfitters, hydraulic consultants, companies and other industry individuals who are leading the way in the plumbing and gas industry. I am proud that we continue to facilitate this program and all nominees should be delighted of the level of outstanding professionalism they display.

Communications MPAQ continues to publish and produce, the Master Plumber magazine bimonthly. It is a specialist publication providing valuable industry information, with a longstanding reputation of over 50 years as a high class magazine. As an industry specific publication for Queensland, it provides members with independent coverage of news, issues, changes and events which directly and indirectly affect the industry. It also provides a host of information on lifestyle, health and industry specific events which are engaging and relevant to the readership.

Sponsors / Partners It is MPAQ’s endeavour to develop our industry, which includes ensuring our members are working with the best of our industry in manufacturers, suppliers and service providers. We actively encourage our members to build relationships and utilise the products and services provided by our Corporate Supporters, sponsors and partners as they are actively involved in supporting our industry through our events and publications or by offering a specific benefit to members. Thank you to all of our partners, sponsors and corporate supporters who continue to support the Association year on year.

Advisory Services Our Workplace Relations Advisory team provides a full service consultancy practice that helps members with any of the employer-employee relationship queries. The service gives practical advice for employers regarding employment issues. The services are staffed by HR experts who know the needs of plumbers and who stay up to date with ongoing continuing education on all human

resource management and industrial relations matter. MPAQ has hosted a number of different webinars this year to help upskill the industry in human resources and industrial relations support and advice.

Awards I would like to make a special mention to Bill Watson, MPAQ Trustee, Bill was awarded as a member of the Order of Australia general division for his services and commitment to our industry. Bill has contributed over 45 years to the trade in leadership roles as an apprentice, employee, employer, business operator, industry regulatory representative, government board appointee, and accredited trainer. Congratulations Bill on this prestigious honour. I would also like to congratulate Bruce Wallace who was awarded the title of MPAQ’s Official Historian, in recognition of his ongoing support by providing information about the history of our Association. Bruce was also appointed in the Association’s Forum Hall of Fame, Bruce’s contribution has been invaluable, congratulations and thank you to Bruce. Before I finish I would just like to acknowledge our team at MPAQ one more time. Plumbing is the most important trade in the world and is a lifesaving profession. Our members are on the front line and we as an association are on the front line. Thank you to each and every member for your hard work and dedication to the industry.

Master Plumbers’ Association of Queensland (Union of Employers) Significant accounting estimates and assumptions The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are as follows: Useful life of and residual values of property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are measured using the cost base less depreciation and impairment losses. The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Impairment of Land and Buildings The Association assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Association that may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. Impairment triggers may comprise a change in economic conditions, demand of land and building, change in interest rates or returns from commercial premises. Should fair value less costs to sell or current replacement cost calculations be required, estimated recoverable amounts would incorporate a number of key estimates. Provisions, contingent Liabilities and contingent assets Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation, based on the most reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. Provisions are discounted to their present values, where the time value of money is material. Any reimbursement that the Group can be virtually certain to collect from the third party with respect to the obligation is recognised as a separate asset, However, this asset may not exceed the amount of the related provision. No liability is recognised if an outflow of economic resources as a result of present obligation is not probable. Such situations are disclosed as contingent liabilities, unless the outflow of resources is remote in which case no liability would be recognised. c. Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. The Association reviews recognition to ensure alignment taking into account contracts, performance obligations, transaction pricing, allocation of transaction pricing and revenue recognition. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances, rebates and amounts

collected on behalf of third parties. The Association recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the group’s activities as described below. The Association bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customers, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement. Revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows: (i) Membership subscriptions and related revenue The Association’s membership usual subscription year is 1 July to 30 June and the majority of members have their membership within this period. Fees are payable monthly and annually in advance. Only those receipts that are attributable to the current financial year are recognised as revenue. Fee receipts relating to periods beyond the current financial year are shown, excluding any applicable taxes, in the Statement of Financial Position as income in advance, under the heading of current liabilities. (ii) Education, exhibitions, conferences, seminars and other services Fees and charges are recognised as income in the year of receipt, except to the extent that fees and charges relate to events or courses to be held in future periods. Such income is treated as income in advance under the heading of current liabilities. (iii) Sale of goods The Association recognises revenue from the sale of goods when physical control of the goods was passed to the purchaser pursuant to an enforceable sales contract and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be reliably measured. Risks and rewards of ownership are considered to be passed to the buyer at the time of delivery of the goods to the customer. The Association participates in a fuel scheme whereby members received a benefit from purchasing discounted fuel directly from suppliers through the use of loyalty fuel cards in the prior year. The suppliers charged the Association which was then on-charged to the members through the monthly billing process. The Association receives a rebate from the suppliers ranging from $0.01 to $0.025 per litre of fuel consumed by the members. The rebate is credited to the Association when the fuel accounts became payable. The Association now primarily has members join up directly with the fuel suppliers but under the Association’s agreement with the supplier. A rebate is still received by the Association from the suppliers but at a lower rate (around $0.01c a litre). (iv) Commissions received

Master Plumbers’ Association of Queensland (Union of Employers)

Notes to the Financial Statements CONTINUED The Association receives revenue in the form of trailing or upfront commissions on member-generated activities through its member benefit program offers. Income is accounted for on accruals basis. (v) Investment income Investment income comprises interest and dividends. Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. (vi) Sundry income Sundry income comprises of funding related to training as well as for the coordination and promotion of training programs as well as other small sundry items and is received in the form of grants and donations. Grants are recognised in accordance with deliverables or performance obligations as set out in each contract. If grants are deemed as non reciprocal in nature they are recognised as operating revenue in the year in which the Association obtains control over the funds. d. Expenditure All expenditures are accounted for on accruals basis and are classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to a particular category, they would be allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of the resources. Overheads have been allocated on the basis of a head count. e. Financial instruments The Association elected to early adopt AASB 9 Financial Instruments for the year ended 30 June 2016 and subsequent financial years. Accordingly the Association would have no transitional disclosures in the current financial year. AASB 9 replaces the provisions of AASB 139 that relate to the recognition, classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities; derecognition of financial instruments and impairment of financial assets. AASB 9 also significantly amends other standards dealing with financial instruments such as AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. Accounting policies applied from 1 July 2015 From 1 July 2015, the Association classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: • those to be measured at amortised cost, and • those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss). The classification depends on the Association’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. Initial recognition, measurement and derecognition At initial recognition, the Association measures a financial 2019 Financial Report | 18

asset or liability at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed as surplus or deficit. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below. Amortised cost Assets are measured at amortised cost only if the asset is held within a business model with the objective of collecting contractual cash flows and the contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest. A gain or loss on a debt financial assets are derecognised when the contracted rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when the financial asset and investment that is subsequently measured at amortised cost is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in interest income using the effective interest rate method. The Association’s investments held at amortised cost comprise only of term deposits. Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income includes equity securities which are not held for trading, and for which the Association has made an irrevocable election at initial recognition to recognise changes in fair value through OCI rather than profit or loss. Dividends from equity investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as income when the Association’s right to receive payments is established. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value. Impairment The Association assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk as noted below. For trade receivables only, the Association applies the simplified approach permitted by AASB 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The Association is exposed to credit risk if counterparties fail to make payments as they fall due in respect of: • loans provided to entities

Master Plumbers’ Association of Queensland (Union of Employers) • payment of trade receivables as invoices fall due • contractual cash flows of debt investments For financial assets originated from 1 July 2015, the following credit risk modelling applies: The Association considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Association compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information. Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method of asset valuation, less any impairment losses. Loans and receivables comprises cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. Available for sale financial assets Available for sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets are either designated to this category or do not qualify for inclusion in any of the other categories of financial assets. The Master Plumbers’ Association of Queensland (Union of Employers) Available for sale financial assets includes listed securities. All Available for sale financial assets are measured at fair value. Gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income and reported within the Available for sale reserve within equity. When the asset is disposed of or is determined to be impaired the cumulative gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from the equity reserve to accumulated funds and presented as a reclassification adjustment within other comprehensive income. Interest calculated using the effective interest method and dividends are recognised in profit or loss within “revenue” (see note 2b). Reversals of impairment losses for Available for sale debt securities are recognised in profit or loss if the reversal can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. For Available for sale equity investments impairment reversals are not recognised in profit loss and any subsequent increase in fair value is recognised in other comprehensive income. Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative

financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the Association’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial asset is derecognised. Financial liabilities The Master Plumbers’ Association of Queensland’s financial liabilities include borrowings and trade and other payables. Financial liabilities are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. f. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at bank and in hand and shortterm deposits with an original maturity of three months or less where the investment is convertible to known amounts of cash and is subject to insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flow, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of any outstanding bank overdrafts. g. Trade and other receivables Trade receivables and other receivables, include amounts due from membership fees, sales of merchandise and from services provided in the ordinary course of business. Receivables are expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets. Normal terms of settlement are from 21 to 30 days. The carrying amount of the receivable is deemed to reflect fair value. An allowance for impairment is made when there is objective evidence that the Association will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written off when identified. h. Inventories Inventories comprise goods for resale including standards, merchandise and member stationery. Inventories have been valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is based on the latest purchase price. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs necessary to make the sale. i. Property, Plant and Equipment Recognition and measurement Items of property, plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and are therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. In the event that the carrying value of property, plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to the estimated recoverable

Master Plumbers’ Association of Queensland (Union of Employers)

Notes to the Financial Statements CONTINUED amount and impairment losses are recognised through profit or loss. The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. Depreciated replacement cost is used to determine value in use where the assets are not held principally for cash generating purposes and would be replaced if the Association was deprived of it. Depreciated replacement cost is the current replacement cost of an item of plant and equipment less, where applicable, accumulated depreciation to date, calculated on the basis of such cost. The cost of fixed assets constructed by the association includes the cost of materials and direct labour. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only where it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Association and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance are recognised as expenses in profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognised within profit or loss. Depreciation Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straightline basis or reducing balance method, over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment. Land is not depreciated. The estimated depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

recognised following completion of technical feasibility and where the Association has an intention and ability to use the asset. k. Leased assets Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and the benefits remain with the lessor, are recognised as expenses on a straight line basis over the lease term. Operating leases are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position. l. Impairment of assets At the end of each reporting period, the Association assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will consider both external and internal sources of information. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of that asset to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount, is immediately recognised in profit or loss. m. Trade and other payables Trade payables and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Association before the end of the financial year that are unpaid. These amounts are usually settled within 30 days. The carrying amount of the creditors and payables is deemed to reflect fair value. n. Deferred income and income in advance The liability for deferred income is the unutilised amounts of income received for services to be provided in the following 12 months. o. Employee benefits Employee benefits comprise wages and salaries, annual, sick and long service leave, and contributions to superannuation plans. Liabilities for wages and salaries expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in Buildings 2.5% to 20% straight-line other payables in respect of employees’ services up to Plant and 10%-33% reducing balance/straightthe reporting date.

Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on deep corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. p. Taxation Income Tax Under Division 50.15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Association is exempt from income tax. Goods and service 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 Taxation Office, in which case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense. Receivables and payables are recognised inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from or payable to the Australian Taxation Office is included as part of receivables or payables. Cash flow is included in the Statement of Cash Flow on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flow arising from investing and financing activities that is recoverable from or payable to the Australian Taxation Office is classified as operating cash flow. q. Comparatives When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year. r. New standards and interpretations not yet adopted The following standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been identified as those that may significantly impact the Association in the period of initial application.

contract modifications) and improve guidance for multipleelement arrangements. AASB 1058 supersedes all the income recognition requirements relating to private sector NFP entities, and the majority of income recognition requirements relating to public sector NFP entities, previously in AASB 1004 Contributions. The timing of income recognition depends on whether such a transaction gives rise to a liability or other performance obligations (a promise to transfer a good or service), or a contribution by owners related to an asset (such as cash or another asset) received by an entity. In relation to Grants recieved, once the company has been notified of the successful grant application, the terms and conditions of each grant will be reviewed in accordance with AASB Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to determine the deliverables and performance obligations and pricing and when to recognise the income associated to the grant. In relation to Membership Income, this will continue to be recognised evenly over the payment period as amortisation is applicable to reflect the support and other services provided over the period. (ii) AASB 16 Leases

AASB 16 will cause the majority of leases of an entity to be brought onto the statement of financial position. There are limited exceptions relating to short-term leases and low value assets which may remain off-balance sheet. The calculation of the lease liability will take into account appropriate discount rates, assumptions about lease term and increases in lease payments. A corresponding right to use asset will be recognised which will be amortised over the term of the lease. Rent expense will no longer be shown, the profit and loss impact of the leases will be through amortisation and interest charges.

The Association engaged Taylor Byrne Valuers, independent accredited valuers, to determine the fair value of its land and buildings at Bradman Street. Fair value is amount that 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. The highest and best use of the land and buildings are considered in determining the valuation. The effective date of the valuation was 18 May 2017. The result was a valuation of the Acacia Ridge building and land of $1,820,000. An impairment loss of $185,813 was recognised to record the carrying value at an amount equivalent to the valuation. The Association has determined, after appropriate review of market conditions recent sales in the area, that the current carrying value remains fair and is not impaired. In November 2016 MPAQ purchased a building located in Beenleigh in partnership with service trades organisations to deliver a centre of excellence for training. Construction on this facility commenced late in the 2019 financial year and was in progress at 30 June 2019.

NOTE 15. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES AND MEASUREMENTS The Association carries the following assets at fair value: • Freehold land and buildings - $1,055,017 • Available-for-sale financial instruments - $1,862,759 Valuation techniques Fair values of freehold land and buildings have been determined by an independent valuer using the valuation indexes for similar sites and buildings to obtain a representative capitalisation rate. Recent sales have also been considered. Valuation policies The market conditions around the freehold land and buildings are assessed at the end of each reporting date, and if the Councillors believe there has been a material movement in the value of the assets an independent valuation is obtained. Measurement of Freehold land and buildings The association carries its land and building at amortised cost, however when there is an indication of impairment compared to the market value, the cost is adjusted to reflect the loss of value in the assets. Fair value measurement of financial instruments The following table shows the financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2018: 30 June

Notes to the Financial Statements CONTINUED For the financial year ended 30 June 2019 NOTE 16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial risk management - objectives and policies The Association’s financial instruments compromise cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale financial investments and financial lease liabilities. In addition the Association has amounts receivable in respect of its members and subscriptions and amounts payable to trade and other creditors. The main risks arising from the Association’s financial instruments are liquidity risk, credit risk and market price risk. The Association does not use derivative instruments to manage risks associated with its financial instruments. The Councilors have overall responsibility for risk management, including risks associated with financial instruments. The Finance Committee is responsible for monitoring the effectiveness of the Association’s risk management and processes and reviewing risk management policies and processes and systems, taking into account changes in market conditions and the Association’s activities. The Finance Committee is responsible for developing and monitoring investment policies. This note presents information about the Association’s exposure to liquidity, credit and market price risk and its objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout these financial statements. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Association will not be able to fund its obligations as they fall due. The Association manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate liquid funds are available to meet normal operating expenses for 120 days. When necessary, cash for unforeseen events can be sourced from liquidation of available-for-sale financial instruments which were valued at $1,862,759 at 30 June 2019. The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities including estimated interest payments: Carrying amount

Note that the Loan facility term ends 30 November 2019 and the Councillors anticipate the loan will be renegotiated at that time. Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Association if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Association is exposed to two sources of credit risk - amounts receivable in respect of membership or sponsorship and counterparty risk in respect of funds deposited with banks and other financial institutions. The majority of amounts receivable are in respect of membership subscriptions from the Association’s members. Any amounts outstanding beyond the contracted period are followed up. Funds are deposited only with those banks and financial institutions approved by Council. Such approval is only given in respect of banks that hold AA ratings from Standard & Poors or an equivalent rating from another reputable ratings agency. At the reporting date, the Association did not have any material credit risk exposures to any single receivable or group of receivables or any bank or financial institution. 2019 Financial Report | 30

Master Plumbers’ Association of Queensland (Union of Employers) Exposure to credit risk The carrying amount of the Association’s financial assets best represents its maximum credit risk exposure. The Association’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was: Note

Market Price Risk Market price risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Association’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The Association is exposed to two sources of market price risk - fluctuations in interest rates and fluctuations in the value of its availablefor-sale investments. Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the value of financial instruments or cash flows associated with the instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Association is exposed to interest rate fluctuations on its cash and on term deposit. The Association actively monitors interest rates for cash at bank and on term deposit to maximise interest income. The following table summaries the interest rate profile of the Association’s interest-bearing financial instruments. Note

Notes to the Financial Statements CONTINUED For the financial year ended 30 June 2019 Sensitivity Analysis A 0% decrease in interest rates and 0.5% increase in interest rates has been determined to be a reasonably possible movement in interest rates over a 12-month period based on information from various financial institutions, review of movements over the last two years and economic forecasters’ expectations. If this change had occurred at the reporting date, it would, with all other variables held constant, have increased or decreased the association’s surplus and funds by the amounts shown below.

Equity price risk Equity price risk arises from fluctuations in the market values of available-for-sale securities. The Association has engaged Elston Partners to advise on the management of its investment portfolio. The Council has approved risk and return parameters for investment in available-for-sale investments and receives reports from management and Elston Partners on a monthly basis regarding the performance on the investment portfolio. Buy, sell and portfolio rebalancing decisions are made by Elston Partners under a managed discretionary account advisory service. At the reporting date, the market value of available-for-sale investments and the impact of a 10% movement in the market value of the investments was: Shares
