Annual Financial Report and Performance Statement
For the year ended 30 June 2016
Maroondah City Council Annual Report 2015/16 | 157
Understanding the Financial Report Introduction The Financial Report shows how Council performed financially during the 2015/16 financial year and the overall position at the end (30 June 2016) of the financial year.
Council presents its financial report in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards.
Particular terms required by the Standards may not be familiar to some readers. Further, Council is a ‘not for profit’ organisation and some of the generally recognised terms used in private sector company reports are not appropriate for Council’s reports.
Council is committed to accountability and transparency. It is in this context that the plain English guide has been developed to assist readers to understand and analyse the financial report.
What is contained in the Annual Financial Report? Council’s financial report has two sets of Statements:
1. Financial Statements 2. Performance Statement
Each of these statements is prepared by Council’s employees, examined by the Council Audit and Risk Advisory Committee and by Council, and then are audited by the Victorian Auditor-General.
Financial Statements The Financial Statements report on how the Council performed financially during the year and the overall financial position at the end of the year.
The Financial Statements include a Comprehensive Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Cash Flows and Statement of Capital Works. The Financial Statements also contain 39 Notes, which set out Council’s accounting policies and details of the line item amounts contained in each of the first four main statements.

Comprehensive Income Statement The Comprehensive Income Statement is sometimes referred to as a ‘Profit and Loss Statement’ in the private sector and shows the: Sources of Council’s revenue under various income headings Expenses incurred in running the Council during the year. These expenses relate only to the
‘Operations’ and do not include the cost associated with the purchase or the building of assets. While asset purchase costs are not included in the Expenses there is an item for ‘Depreciation’.
The surplus or deficit for the year is the key figure to look at on the Comprehensive Income Statement to assess Council’s financial performance. It is calculated by deducting the total expenses for the year from total revenues.
The comprehensive result on the Comprehensive Income Statement includes items that will not be reclassified to surplus or deficit in future periods,
Balance Sheet The Balance Sheet is a one page summary which is a snapshot of the financial situation as at 30 June. It shows what Council owns as assets and what it owes as liabilities. The bottom line of this Statement is Net Assets. This is the equity or net worth of Council which has been built up over many years.
The assets and liabilities are separated into Current and Non-Current. Current generally means those assets which will be received or liabilities which will be paid, within the next 12 months. Non-current are all those assets and liabilities which are held for a longer term.
The net current assets or working capital as it is sometimes called is an important measure of Council’s ability to meet its debts as and when they fall due.
The components of the Balance Sheet are:
Current and Non-Current Assets
Cash and cash equivalent assets include cash and investments, i.e. cash held in the bank and in petty cash and the market value of Council’s investments maturing within 90 days.
Trade and other receivables are monies owed to Council by ratepayers and others. Financial assets are the market value of investments held with a maturity date greater than 90 days. Inventories – consumables are stocks held for sale or consumption in Council’s services. Other assets include prepayments of expenses that Council has paid in advance of the service
delivery and assets held for resale which are in a position of being marketed and sold. Investments in associates represent Council’s investment in Eastern Regional Libraries Corporation
and Narre Warren User Group. Intangibles represent non-current assets held by Council that are not tangible. Property, infrastructure, plant and equipment is the largest component of Council’s worth and
represents the value of all the land, buildings, roads, drains, vehicles, equipment etc., which has been built up by Council over many years
Current and Non-Current Liabilities
Trade and other payables are those to whom Council owes money as at 30 June. Trust fund and deposits represent monies held in trust by Council e.g. Security Deposits. Provisions represent estimates of future obligations and include accrued Long Service and Annual
Leave owed to employees. Interest-bearing liabilities are borrowings of Council.
Maroondah City Council Annual Report 2015/16 | 159
Net Assets
This term is used to describe the difference between the value of Total Assets and the value of Total Liabilities. It represents the net worth of Council as at 30 June.
Total Equity
This always equals Net Assets. It is made up of the following components: assets revaluation reserve is the difference between the previously recorded value of assets and their
current valuations accumulated surplus is the value of all net assets accumulated over time.
Statement of Changes in Equity During the course of the year the value of Total Equity as set out in the Balance Sheet changes. This Statement shows the values of such changes and how these changes arose.
The main reasons for a change in equity stem from: the ‘surplus or deficit’ from operations, described in the Comprehensive Income Statement as
Comprehensive Result for the year the use of monies from Council’s reserves a revaluation of the assets which takes place on a regular basis to ensure the most up-to-date value is
included in Council’s books. It also occurs when existing assets are taken up in the books for the first time.
Statement of Cash Flows The Statement of Cash Flows summarises Council’s cash payments and cash receipts for the year. This Statement is presented according to a very specific Accounting Standard and needs some care in analysis. The values may differ from those shown in the Comprehensive Income Statement because the Comprehensive Income Statement is prepared on an accrual accounting basis.
Cash in this Statement refers to bank deposits and other forms of highly liquid investments that can be readily converted to cash.
Council’s cash arises from, and is used in, three main areas. 1. Cash flows from operating activities: Receipts – all cash received into Council’s bank account from ratepayers and others who owe
money to Council. Receipts also include the interest earnings from Council’s cash investments. It does not include the costs associated with the sale of assets.
Payments – all cash paid by Council from its bank account to employees, creditors and other persons. It does not include the costs associated with the creation of assets.
2. Cash flows from investing activities: This section shows the cash invested in the creation or purchase of property, infrastructure, plant
and equipment assets and the cash received from the sale of these assets. 3. Cash flows from financing activities: This is where the receipt and repayment of borrowed funds are recorded.
The bottom line of the Cash Flows Statement is the cash and cash equivalents at end of financial year. This shows the capacity of Council to meet its cash debts and other liabilities.

Notes to the Financial Statements The Notes are a very important and informative section of the report. The Australian Accounting Standards are not prescriptive regarding a lot of issues. Therefore, to enable the reader to understand the basis on which the values shown in the Statements are established, it is necessary to provide details of Council’s significant accounting policies. These are described in Note 1.
Apart from the accounting policies, the Notes also give details behind many of the summary figures contained in the Statements. The Note numbers are shown beside the relevant items in the Comprehensive Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows.
The Notes also include information that Council wishes to disclose but which cannot be incorporated into the Statements.
Other notes include: The breakdown of expenses, revenues, reserves and other assets Contingent liabilities Transactions with persons related to Council.
The Notes should be read at the same time as, and together with, the other parts of the Financial Statements to get a clear picture of the accounts.
Certification by the Principal Accounting Officer, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Councillors The Certification of the Principal Accounting Officer is made by the person responsible for the financial management of Council that, in her/his opinion, the Financial Statements have met all the statutory and professional reporting requirements.
The Certification of the CEO and Councillors is made by two Councillors and the CEO on behalf of Council that, in their opinion, the Financial Statements are fair and not misleading or inaccurate.
Performance Statement The Performance Statement reflects the Council performance on indicators included in the Local Government Performance Reporting Framework. As this framework came into effect on 1 July 2014, the 2015/16 financial year is the first reporting period for these indicators that comparative data for past years is available. Please note that the source for some of the data included in this framework is derived from external sources such as the Local Government Satisfaction Survey, the Australian Bureau of Statistics and the Department of Health and Human Services.
Auditor General’s Report The Independent Audit Report provides the reader with an external and independent opinion on the Financial Statements. It confirms that the Financial Report has been prepared in accordance with relevant legislation and professional standards and that it represents a fair picture of the financial affairs of the Council.

Performance Statement
For the year ended 30 June 2016
Description of municipality
The City of Maroondah covers a land area of 61.4 square kilometres in Melbourne's outer east, 22 kilometres f rom the Central Business District (CBD). The area is a substantially developed periurban residential municipality, with an estimated population of 112,310 residents1 and 43,663 households with an average of 2.55 people per household?
The City of Maroondah includes the suburbs of Bayswater North, Croydon, Croydon Hills, Croydon North, Croydon South, Heathmont, Kilsyth South, Ringwood, Ringwood East, Ringwood North and Warranwood. The City also includes small sections of Kilsyth, Park Orchards, Vermont and Wonga Park. With little rema ining land available for greenfield residential development, future population growth will be mainly stimulated by housing consolidation and medium density development.
Maroondah has the strategic advantage of being located at the north-eastern junction of the Eastern Freeway - Eastlink corridor. There are two train lines and a large number of bus routes linking the City with other regions. Some areas have limited access to public transport and many residents are reliant on private vehicles. Our sustainable transport links continue to expand, with on-road cycling paths and shared paths on major t rails, including the Mullum Mullum Creek Trail, the Eastlink Trail, Taralla Creek Trail and the Dandenong Creek Trail.
This Performance Statement reflects Council performance on indicators included in the Local Government Performance Reporting Framework. Please note that the source for some of the data included in this framework is derived from external sources such as the Local Government Community Satisfaction Survey, the Australian Bureau of Statistics and the Department of Health and Human Services.
