Budget variances commentary

The major variances on the Statement of Comprehensive Income are employee benefits, depreciation and amortisation, rendering of services revenue, revenue from Government and the operating deficit.

During the reporting period the OAIC incurred higher than anticipated employee benefits costs. The increased costs relate to: recruitment activities to support workload requirements, including by way of short-term contractors and an additional and unforeseeable lump sum superannuation contribution as required by the Department of Finance.

Rendering of services revenue reflects variations to memorandums of understanding with other government entities during the financial year, which resulted in a reduction of revenue.

Depreciation and amortisation variation relates new intangibles such as the new oaic.gov.au website which was established during the reporting period.

As part of the 2019-20 Budget the OAIC received an additional $329,000 as appropriated funding.

The operating deficit relates to the above variances that were not known at the time of original the budget preparation.
