Statement of significant accounting policies
The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The financial report is prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs and does not take into account changing money values or, except where stated, current valuations of non-current assets.
Cost is based on the fair value of consideration given in exchange for assets. The accounting policies have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
Revenue recognition
Subscription revenue
Subscription revenue is recognised in the period to which the member’s subscription relates.
The association’s subscription year is not the same as its financial year.

Sales revenue comprises revenue earned from the provision of goods to third parties.
Sales revenue is recognised when the goods are provided.
Interest income is notified and paid in arrears and is brought to account on notification.
Other revenue
Other revenue, including donations, is recognised as it is received.
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value (being the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less any estimated selling expenses).
Financial instruments

whether or not billed. Accounts payable are generally settled within the supplier’s terms.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are brought to account at cost, less any accumulated depreciation.
Assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis at approximately 25% per annum. The carrying amount of fixed assets is reviewed annually to ensure it is not in excess of their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of expected net cash flows to be received from the assets’ employment and subsequent disposal.
