Financial Statements Income Statement Expenses The Income Statement shows an increase in Total Cost of Services of $3.8 million (8%) in when compared to the d. This is due to an increase of $2.2 million in the budget expenses for the operation of the LILS and $0.5 million increase in supplies and services expenditure representing additional expenditure to be incurred by the TRBWA. This is in response to the significant increase in renewals of registration expected during. Accommodation expenses are increasing by $1 million representing dual rent for redundant tenancies that have yet to be backfilled, as well as additional expenditure for the current tenancy. The $0.3 million increase in employee benefits is attributable to a rise in salaries and wages expenditure resulting from indexation of 2.5%. The increase in finance costs is attributable to the increase in LILS funding to $55 million in. Income Total income for is budgeted at $26.7 million which is 7% higher than the d of $25 million. This is predominantly due to the increase in revenue expected for the TRBWA as a result of a significant increase in renewals of registration during. Service appropriations for the d are $10.8 million (54%) below the due to the application of the Government s Cash Management Policy as announced in the Mid-year Review. Statement of Financial Position The most significant assets in the Department s statement of financial position are loans and advances provided to schools for asset investment under the LILS. These assets are offset by liabilities represented by borrowings from the Western Australian Treasury Corporation. Notwithstanding the Department s deficiency of net assets, the financial statements have been prepared as a going concern. This basis has been adopted as the Department is a Government agency which is funded from Parliamentary appropriation from the Consolidated Account. The Department s total equity is expected to decline in by $4.1 million (11%) compared to d. Statement of Cashflows The closing cash assets balance of $9 million represents a decrease of $0.5 million (6%) in comparison to the d of $9.5 million. Employee benefits, supplies and services, accommodation expenses and finance costs are expected to increase in. At the same time fee revenue for the TRBWA is budgeted to increase. 275
