The above statement should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes.

Budget variances commentary

Australian Institute of Family Studies ‘the Institute’ original budgeted financial statement was first presented to Parliament in respect of the reporting period in the 2018/19 PBS.

Explanations of major variance between actual and original budgeted amounts for 2018/19 are provided where the variance is greater than 10% for a line item or greater than $251,000 unless the variance is a trivial amount.

Explanations of major variances

Affected line items

The Institute received $1,224,341.41 of section 74 receipts at the end of June 2019 which were unable to be returned to the Official Public Account (OPA) during the 2018/19 financial year and was not factored into the PBS estimate of Cash at Bank Account.

Cash and cash equivalents

Several major projects have been funded in advance with cash transferred to the OPA.

Trade and other receivables

Value of leasehold improvements and plant and equipment increased due to revaluation of fitouts, capitalised leasehold incentive and additional replacement of ICT equipment.

Plant and equipment

There were some deferments for software (intangibles) purchase due to operational reasons.

Intangibles

Unearned revenue represents cash receipts received in advance for work yet to be performed. The Institute’s estimated revenue as published in the 2018/19 PBS was based on an assumption of revenue to be earned from long-term continuing projects along with an assumption of the value of work the Institute would be contracted to deliver in the financial year, based on historical trends. The balance of unearned income at 30 June is difficult to estimate and can vary from year to year as it is impacted by the timing of payments received for contracted research projects and the timing of deliverables of those projects as these may not necessarily fall in the same financial year. Timing of payments and project deliverables are also subject to change after the publication of the PBS.

Unearned income

Other payables is largely lease incentive and GST payable on increased revenue received in June 2019.
