Explanations of variances +/ - 10% between the actual and original budgeted amounts for 2016-17 are provided further below (except for trivial amounts not considered significant to the performance of FSANZ)
AASB 1055 Explanations of major variances |
Affected line items (and schedule) |
1. Employee benefits
The increase in employee benefits was primarily due to unbudgeted redundancy payments and on- costs on provisions. |
Employee benefits
(Statement of Comprehensive Income) |
2. Suppliers
The increase in suppliers expense was due to the increase in project work - refer rendering of services below. |
Suppliers
(Statement of Comprehensive Income) |
3. Depreciation and amortisation
The budget assumed that internally developed software assets would be consumed fully this year. Additional work to the asset has extended the useful life and reduced the depreciation. |
Depreciation and amortisation
(Statement of Comprehensive Income) |
4. Rendering of Services
The budget for other revenue actually relates to the Sale of Goods and Rendering of services. The income was still higher than this budget due to the uncertainty around project work that depends on demand. All project work was provided to other government departments and related to data analysis, labelling and running workshops |
Rendering of Services
(Statement of Comprehensive Income) |
5. Interest
Interest rates were lower than anticipated and this reduced the interest received. |
Interest
(Statement of Comprehensive Income) |
6. Other revenue
As noted in 4. the other revenue budget relates to the sale of goods and services and the goods and services budget relates to Other Revenue. This error will be corrected at the next opportunity. |

Explanations of major variances |
Affected line items (and schedule) |
1. Cash and cash equivalents
The original budget included the term deposit as cash. This has now been reclassified in the financial statements as an investment. The remaining variance is explained by higher than budgeted payments due to redundancies and some significant leave pay-outs during the period. |
Cash and cash equivalents

2. Trade and Other receivables
Budget is an estimated percentage of debtors at year end whereas the actual at year end represented agency efforts to reduce debtors. |

3. Non Financial Assets
Non financial assets additions were higher than budgeted in intangibles. This increase was funded from reserves and reflects the business need to improve data management and analysis. |

Affected line items (and schedule) |
Cash received |
- Receipts from the New Zealand Government were included in Other income in the budget but are separated in the cash flow for more detailed disclosure. The budget was also prepared before the Partnership agreement between The New Zealand Minister for Food Safety and Food Standards Australia New Zealand had been finalised.
|
Receipts from New Zealand Government and Other |
- FSANZ do not budget for goods and service income due to the uncertainty of the amount.
|
Cash used |
- Cash used for employees is lower than anticipated due to redundancies which were payable as at 30 June 2017 when the budget anticipated a cash outflow in the 2016-17 year. This allowed an increase in investments.
|
Employees and Investments |
- Cash used for suppliers is higher than budget to reflect costs associated with the delivery of goods and services income, relating to projects.
|
Suppliers |
- Cash used for the purchase of property plant and equipment includes higher than anticipated internally developed software to meet emerging business needs and GST.

Overview
The Basis of Preparation
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements and are required by section 42 of the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with:
- a) Public Governance, Performance and Accountability (Financial Reporting) Rule 2015 (FRR) for reporting periods ending on or after 1 July 2015; and
- b) Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations - reduced disclosure requirements issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that apply for the reporting period.
The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance with the historical cost convention, except for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Except where stated, no allowance is made for the effect of changing prices on the results or the financial position. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars and rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($'000) unless otherwise specified.
New Accounting Standards
All new accounting standards, revised standards or amending standards that were issued prior to the sign-off date and are applicable to the current reporting period did not have a material effect on FSANZ’s financial statements.
Taxation
FSANZ is exempt from all forms of taxation except Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) and the Goods and Services Tax (GST).
Departmental Events After the Reporting Period
There has been no event since 30 June 2017 that had the potential to significantly affect the ongoing structure and financial activities of FSANZ.
Foreign Currency
Transactions denominated in a foreign currency are converted at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency bank account amounts are translated at the exchange rate current as at the reporting date. The primary foreign currency transactions are with New Zealand.

Accounting Policy
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when:
- the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer;
- FSANZ retains no managerial involvement or effective control over the goods;
- the revenue and transaction costs incurred can be reliably measured; and;
- it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to FSANZ.
Revenue from rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of contracts at the reporting date. The revenue is recognised when:
- the amount of revenue, stage of completion and transaction costs incurred can be reliably measured; and
- the probable economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to FSANZ.
The stage of completion of contracts at the reporting date is determined by reference the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to the estimated total costs of the transaction.
Receivables for goods and services, which have 30 day terms, are recognised at the nominal amounts due less any impairment allowance account. Collectability of debts is reviewed at end of the reporting period.
Allowances are made when collectability of the debt is no longer probable.

Contractual commitments for the acquisition of property, plant, equipment and intangibles
FSANZ had no material commitments to purchase assets as at 30 June 2017.
2.2 Non-Financial Assets
Accounting Policy
Assets are recorded at cost on acquisition except as stated below. The cost of acquisition includes the fair value of assets transferred in exchange and liabilities undertaken. Financial assets are initially measured at their fair value plus transaction costs where appropriate.
Asset Recognition Threshold
Purchases of property, plant and equipment are recognised initially at cost in the statement of financial position, except for purchases costing less than [$5,000], which are expensed in the year of acquisition (other than where they form part of a group of similar items which are significant in total).
The initial cost of an asset includes an estimate of the cost of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. This is particularly relevant to ‘make good’ provisions in property leases taken up by FSANZ where there exists an obligation to restore the property to prescribed conditions. These costs are included in the value of FSANZ's leasehold improvements with a corresponding provision for the ‘make good’ recognised.
Revaluations
Following initial recognition at cost, property, plant and equipment are carried at fair value less subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Valuations are conducted with sufficient frequency to ensure that the carrying amounts of assets did not differ materially from the assets’ fair values as at the reporting date. The regularity of independent valuations depended upon the volatility of movements in market values for the relevant assets.
Leasehold improvement, property plant & equipment are carried at fair value, being revalued with sufficient frequency such that the carrying amount of each asset class is not materially different at reporting date from its fair value. An independent valuation of all asset categories was carried out by Pickles Valuation Services as at 30 June 2016 and a further desk audit as at 30 June 2017 resulted in no changes to asset values.
Revaluation adjustments are made on a class basis. Any revaluation increment is credited to equity under the heading of asset revaluation reserve except to the extent that it reversed a previous revaluation decrement of the same asset class that was previously recognised in the surplus/deficit. Revaluation decrements for a class of assets are recognised directly in the surplus/deficit except to the extent that they reversed a previous revaluation increment for that class.
Any accumulated depreciation as at the revaluation date is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the asset restated to the revalued amount.
Depreciation
Depreciable property, plant and equipment assets are written-off to their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives to FSANZ using, in all cases, the straight-line method of depreciation. Leasehold improvements are depreciated on a straight line basis over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the improvements or the unexpired period of the lease.
Depreciation rates (useful lives), residual values and methods are reviewed at each reporting date and necessary adjustments are recognised in the current, or current and future reporting periods, as appropriate.
Depreciation rates applying to each class of depreciable asset are based on the following useful lives:
|
2017 |
2016 |
Leasehold improvements |
Lease term |
Lease term |
Plant and equipment |
3-10 years |
3-10 years |
Impairment
All assets were assessed for impairment at 30 June 2017. Where indications of impairment exist, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment adjustment made if the asset’s recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount.
The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. Where the future economic benefit of an asset is not primarily dependent on the asset’s ability to generate future cash flows, and the asset would be replaced if the entity were deprived of the asset, its value in use is taken to be its depreciated replacement cost.
Derecognition
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
Intangibles
FSANZ's intangibles comprise internally developed software for internal use and purchased software. These assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Internally developed software and purchased software with values of $25,000 or greater are capitalised. Any purchases under these thresholds are expensed in the year of acquisition (other than when they form part of a group of similar items which are significant in total).
Software is amortised on a straight-line basis over its anticipated useful life. The useful lives of the entity's software are:

Parental Leave Payments Scheme
Amounts received under the Parental Leave Payments Scheme by the entity not yet paid to employees were presented gross as cash and a liability (payable). The total amount received under this scheme was $79,573 (2016: $26,251).
2.4 Other Provisions
FSANZ currently has 2 (2016: 2) agreements for the leasing of premises which have provisions requiring the entity to restore the premises to their original condition at the conclusion of the lease. FSANZ has made a provision to reflect the present value of this obligation.
People and relationships

Accounting policy
Liabilities for ‘short-term employee benefits’ (as defined in AASB 119 Employee Benefits) and termination benefits due within twelve months of the end of reporting period are measured at their nominal amounts. Other long-term employee benefits are measured as net total of the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period minus the fair value at the end of the reporting period of plan assets (if any) out of which the obligations are to be settled directly.
Leave
The liability for employee benefits includes provision for annual leave and long service leave. The leave liabilities are calculated on the basis of employees’ remuneration at the estimated salary rates that will be applied at the time the leave is taken, including the entity’s employer superannuation contribution rates to the extent that the leave is likely to be taken during service rather than paid out on termination. The liability for long service leave has been determined by reference to the shorthand method as prescribed by the FRR. The estimate of the present value of the liability takes into account attrition rates and pay increases through promotion and inflation.
Separation and Redundancy
Provision is made for separation and redundancy benefit payments. The entity recognises a provision for termination when it has developed a detailed formal plan for the terminations and has informed those employees affected that it will carry out the terminations. FSANZ had no provision at the 30 June 2017 but a payable is shown in Note 2.3B to reflect redundancies that took effect on the 30 June 2017.
Superannuation
FSANZ staff are members of the Commonwealth Superannuation Scheme (CSS), the Public Sector Superannuation Scheme (PSS) or the PSS accumulation plan (PSSap) or a complying superannuation fund. The CSS and PSS are defined benefit schemes for the Australian Government. The PSSap and other complying superannuation funds are a defined contribution scheme.
The liability for defined benefits is recognised in the financial statements of the Australian Government and is settled by the Australian Government in due course. This liability is reported in the Department of Finance’s administered schedules and notes.
FSANZ makes employer contributions to the employees' defined benefit superannuation scheme at rates determined by an actuary to be sufficient to meet the current cost to the Government. FSANZ accounts for the contributions as if they were contributions to defined contribution plans.
The liability for superannuation recognised as at 30 June represents outstanding contributions for the final pay of the year.
3.2 Key Management Personnel Remuneration
Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of FSANZ, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of FSANZ. FSANZ has determined the key management personnel to be the Chief Executive Officer, Branch General Managers and Directors. Key management personnel remuneration is reported in the table below:

The above key management personnel remuneration excludes the remuneration and other benefits of the Portfolio Minister. The Portfolio Minister's remuneration and other benefits are set by the Remuneration Tribunal and are not paid by the entity.
3.3 Related Party Disclosures
Related party relationships
FSANZ is an Australian Government controlled entity. Related parties to FSANZ are directors and key management personnel.
Transactions with related parties:
Given the breath of Government activities, related parties may transact with the government sector in the same capacity as ordinary citizens. Such transactions include the payment or refund of taxes. These transactions have not been separately disclosed in this note.
Significant transactions with related parties can include:
- the payments of grants or loans;
- purchases of goods and services;
- asset purchases, sales transfers or leases;
- debt forgiven; and
- guarantees.
Giving consideration to relations with related entities, and transactions entered into during the reporting period by FSANZ, it has been determined that there are no related party transactions to be separately disclosed.
Managing uncertainties
This section analyses how Food Standards Australia New Zealand manages financial risks within its operating environment.
4.1 Contingent Assets and Liabilities
FSANZ did not have any contingent assets or liabilities to report as at 30 June 2017 (2016: Nil).
Accounting Policy
Contingent liabilities and contingent assets are not recognised in the statement of financial position but are reported in the notes. They may arise from uncertainty as to the existence of a liability or asset or represent an asset or liability in respect of which the amount cannot be reliably measured. Contingent assets are disclosed when settlement is probable but not virtually certain and contingent liabilities are disclosed when settlement is greater than remote. FSANZ did not have any contingent assets or liabilities to report as at 30 June 2017 (2016: Nil).

Accounting Policy
Financial Assets
FSANZ classifies its financial assets in the following categories as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial assets are classified depending on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and determined at the time of initial recognition. Financial assets are recognised and derecognised upon trade date.
Trade receivables and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as ‘receivables’.
Impairment of Financial Assets
Financial assets are assessed for impairment at end of each reporting period.
Financial assets held at amortised cost - if there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred for loans and receivables, 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 discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount is reduced by way of an allowance account. The loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities. Financial liabilities are recognised and derecognised upon ‘trade date’. Supplier and other payables are recognised at amortised cost. Liabilities are recognised to the extent that the goods or services have been received (and irrespective of having been invoiced).

Accounting Policy
FSANZ procured valuation services from Pickles Valuation Services (PVS) in 2016 and 2017 and relied on valuation models provided by PVS. FSANZ’s asset policy requires that a formal independent valuation process is conducted at least once every three to four years. In years when an independent valuation is not conducted, an assessment is performed by management to ensure that the fair value criterion is reasonable. This assessment normally focuses on ‘indicators’ to determine whether there has been a material movement in the carrying amount of the assets since the last reporting date. PVS provided written assurance to FSANZ that the model developed is in compliance with AASB 13.
No change in valuation technique occurred during the period. The highest and best use of all non-financial assets are the same as their current use.
