Significant Accounting Policy

Equity Injections
Amounts appropriated which are designated as ‘equity injections’ for a year (less any formal reductions) and Departmental Capital Budgets (DCBs) are recognised directly in contributed equity in that year.

Budget Variances Commentary (continued)

Statement of Changes in Equity

Deficit for the period
The deficit for the period was greater than the original budget primarily due to higher than expected employee and supplier expenditures.

Revaluation increment/(decrement)
The revaluation reserve movement was different to budget as it is difficult for the National Archives to anticipate any collection impairment or movements due to revaluation of assets at the time the original budget was prepared.
