THANKS
We are extremely lucky and privileged
to have some of the most dedicated
people working and volunteering
within the golf sector throughout New

clubs and industry partners continue
to tackle the multitude of challenges
facing the game and do so with an
abundance of energy and passion.
We understand that the health of the
game is reliant on the thousands of

thank you to the friends and families
of everyone who works within the
game because we know the level of
commitment and sacrifice that is
needed to ensure the future of golf is a

Thank you all for another great year
and we look forward to working
alongside you in 2015.

golf with the New Zealand Women’s Open
at Clearwater. This was followed by running
the world’s most unique New Zealand Open
in Queenstown, over two courses and in a
pro-am format which was a real success. Our
thanks to Michael Hill Tournaments Limited
for their tireless work to bring the Men’s Open
tournament to life. It is greatly appreciated.
The 2015 New Zealand Men’s Open will be
further developed with increased prize money
and TV coverage.
Lydia Ko was again the standout on the
international stage as she climbed the world
rankings and continued to establish herself as
a world class performer. Three further LPGA
titles in addition to winning the season long
points race were highlights in a year of simply
stunning achievements.
PRESIDENT’S REPORT
New Zealand Golf President
Philip Hassall
New Zealand Golf will remember 2014 as a year
when our new strategic direction came to life.
After acknowledging for some time there was
a need to show more support to the grass roots
of the game, I’m pleased to report that we have
made significant progress in this area during
2014.
As a first and important step, this year we
reached agreement with our member District
Associations on what we called the “Way
Forward Guiding Principles” document.
In these challenging times it is important that
we work together with our District Associations
to improve the health of our sport. The “Way
Forward Guiding Principles” will help us
navigate the path ahead in a united manner.
I’m pleased to note, that after some initial push
back, all District Associations are full supporters
of the new strategic direction the organisation
is taking with many adopting it as their own
strategy.
In another significant step, the organisation
enhanced relationships and progressed formal
agreements with nine golfing organisations to
align and support New Zealand Golf’s strategic
outcomes. These included the PGA, First Tee,
SNAG, New Zealand Maori Golf Association,
6
From a local New Zealand perspective,
perhaps the biggest achievement for Lydia
was being awarded the supreme Halberg
Award in February. This acknowledged her
as New Zealand’s finest sportsperson in 2013
– a stunning achievement for a real golfing
superstar.
Eagles, Nomads, Golf Managers Association,
Golf Course Superintendents Association and
Cheeky9.
In the men’s pro ranks there was great success
to toast as well. Both Danny Lee and Tim
Wilkinson competed well on the PGA Tour and
will be joined by Steve Alker in 2015. It will be
wonderful to follow these three New Zealanders
on the world’s biggest tour.
We do acknowledge the year in review has
again been challenging for many in the golfing
sector. The Board and management have
worked tirelessly throughout 2014 and their
efforts are acknowledged with many thanks.
In the amateur ranks our players again
competed well in Australia and further afield
however our results in Japan at the World
Amateur Team Championship were short of our
expectations.
The core strategies of New Zealand Golf are
to grow and support the game and we made
significant progress in these areas in 2014.
We acknowledge the Pupuke Golf Club and the
Port Chalmers Golf Club which celebrated their
centenaries in 2014. We congratulate these clubs
for reaching this marvellous milestone and
acknowledge their contribution to golf and the
community over the past 100 years.
Under these strategic priorities many new
initiatives were established in 2013 to address
some of the issues we face. We built depth
to our strategic plan by publishing the world
class Community Golf Plan; a document
that articulates how we can join together as a
golfing sector to grow golf in the grass roots
communities around the country. We continued
the LOVE Golf campaign to improve the way
New Zealanders think about the game of golf
and drive participation and we launched an
initiative to attract casual golfers to become part
of the golfing family.
On the playing side of the game, we started the
year with a wonderful showcase of women’s
change is not always embraced, however when
this group looks back on the achievements of
the organisation over the past 12 months, it
should feel very pleased for the advancements it
has made.
Finally I would like to offer my sincere thanks
and appreciation to the membership for
allowing me to be President over this past year.
The role of President is one that is always a
privilege and something that I never take for
granted.
I look forward to a successful 2015 where we
can continue to work together to grow and
support the game we love.
Philip Hassall
President
New Zealand Golf Incorporated
Sadly, life member Barry Forrest passed away
in April 2014. Barry was a long-time servant
of the game and will be missed by the golfing
community of Timaru where he made such a
big contribution. We extend our sympathy to
the Forrest family and all other members of the
golfing family who lost loved ones in 2014.
I would also like to acknowledge and thank
New Zealand Golf Chairman Paul Fyfe for his
leadership of our organisation in the past 12
months and the dedication and achievements
of the Board. Making progress is never easy and

2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements

2014 Financial Performance
From a financial perspective, the business
faced another difficult year. Our targeted
profit for the year was $77,000 and while the
business achieved an operating surplus of
$47,552 prior to depreciation and amortisation,
after accounting for these costs the deficit
sits at $51,190. Securing appropriate levels of
sustainable revenue remains the core challenge
however this is set against a background
of declining traditional membership levies,
reducing charitable trust income and a very
tough commercial sponsorship market. The
fact that our affiliation levies have remained at
the same rate for nine years now is a matter we
may well have to address in the coming year.
Currently, 47% of our income is derived from
affiliation levies leaving 53% to be raised by the
business. As reported last year, the demand for
delivery of services increases each year and
we will need to find new ways to increase our
revenue if we are to deliver on the ambitions set
out in our strategic plan.
Administration Structure
In association with our member District
Associations, the Board concluded a major
project to review the national administration for
golf that had the broad goals of establishing:
A unified and common strategy among all
administration bodies working in golf;
Greater efficiencies and collaboration; and
Increased delivery of services to grass roots golf
clubs.
Thanks to the help and leadership of a
subcommittee led by Max Walker of Canterbury
Golf, I am pleased to report that we reached
agreement on a range of guiding principles for
the future of our joint administration of the sport
in New Zealand. A critical part of these guiding
principles is the need for a close working
relationship between New Zealand Golf, our
District Associations and our clubs. This is an
important focus moving forward.
From a national governance perspective, the
alignment process with the PGA of New Zealand
continues to be worked on diligently by both
parties. We will determine the most appropriate
way forward with the support of our District
Associations in the coming financial year.
Industry Partnerships
In addition to our member District Associations,
New Zealand Golf continues to work closely
with our friends across the golfing sector.
I’m pleased to report we have very close
relationships with the PGA of New Zealand,
10
the Golf Managers Association, SNAG, The
First Tee, the New Zealand Golf Course
Superintendents Association and the New
Zealand Maori Golf Association to name just a
few. These organisations all have agreements
with New Zealand Golf to work towards the
goals as set out in our strategic plan and I
would like to acknowledge the work they have
done throughout the year. A key future work
stream is to engage with the regional sports
trusts around the country to assist the grass
roots growth and support of our game. We look
forward to continuing our work with all of these
organisations in 2015.
International Relationships
An important part of our role as leaders of the
game in New Zealand is to foster beneficial
relationships with international golfing
organisations. We take our role as part of the
worldwide community of golf seriously and
feel that increased collaboration and sharing
of ideas with our international peers provides
benefits for our game here in New Zealand. Our
relationships remain very close with the R&A,
APGC, IGF, Augusta National and Golf Australia
in particular and we look forward to further
collaboration with these bodies in the future.
In particular I would like to acknowledge the
R&A for their very generous support of New
Zealand Golf’s new grass roots initiatives. The
investment received from the R&A will assist
us greatly as we strive to grow and support the
game in New Zealand.
New Initiatives - Growing &
Supporting the Game
Following the publishing of our new strategic
plan, this year we have launched a number of
new initiatives to bring this plan to life. Under
the twin priorities of growing and supporting
the game, the new initiatives launched are also
a reflection of our increased allocation of budget
to the community and grass roots segments of
the game.
We continued the LOVE Golf campaign to
improve the way New Zealanders think about
the game of golf and drive participation and we
launched an initiative to register casual golfers
on our national database. The later initiative is
particularly important as we strive to connect
with the growing casual segment of the market
and encourage them to become part of the
golfing family.
From a knowledge perspective, we engaged in
some key pieces of research this year which
provided very valuable information on the
perception of golf and also the nature of the
volunteer and remunerated workforce across
the golf sector. This information will be valuable
for us to assess on a yearly basis to understand
the progress we are making.
To deliver increased services to the grass roots
of the game, this year we established two
new roles in the Community Golf team. In
partnership with District Associations, these
roles provide a direct service link to golf clubs
and are charged with helping clubs improve
their planning processes business management.
We are extremely encouraged by the progress
these appointments have made in over nine
months in 2014. We look forward to seeing their
impact grow in 2015.
To build on these themes, a national educational
seminar series was held throughout the country
that provided business learning opportunities
for club representatives. This is an area of work
we will look to expand in 2015 as the education
framework we have been working on comes
to life through the Golf Managers Association
and the Diploma of Golf Management through
Auckland Business College.
Perhaps the biggest achievement this year
however has been adding depth to our strategic
plan by publishing the world class Community
Golf Plan; a document that articulates how we
can join together as a golfing sector to grow
golf in the grass roots communities around
the country. This plan has been incredibly well
received and endorsed from all parts of the
sector. The R&A has additionally identified this
piece of work as world leading.
Golf Operations
changes were subsequently introduced in
2014. Our thanks go to DotGolf who, as our
national service provider and partner delivers
an excellent service to the game of golf. Alan
McCracken and his team provide New Zealand
Golf with a constantly evolving product that is
world class and the envy of many international
golfing organisations.
National Championships
National championships remain an integral
part of our operations and we were pleased to
present 28 national events throughout 2014.
Once again in 2014 the number of entries into
national events increased.
New Zealand Golf runs a wide variety of national
championships which also include teams
championships the TORO Interprovincials and
Men’s and Women’s Masters. We acknowledge
and thank Denise Langdon and PaR NZ who
run a range of New Zealand Golf participation
events. These events are popular tournaments
on the New Zealand Golf calendar and well
attended every year.
The Charles Tour continues to grow in
significance and in 2014 we welcomed another
host venue in the Akarana Golf Club. While
the weather hampered the first Akarana Open
reducing the championship to 54 holes, we are
looking forward to a longstanding relationship
with the club.
Hosting a national championship is a large
commitment for a club and its members and
we give our thanks to those clubs which have
generously provided their courses as host
venues. We also give our sincere thanks to those
many volunteers who gave their valuable time
to ensure our championships ran efficiently.
Club Membership
This year we have again experienced a
membership decline in line with previous years
and consistent with worldwide trends. Given the
decline remains steady at around 2% per annum,
we do need to accept that the behaviours and
preferences of participants are changing. The
majority of golf participants now engage with
the game outside of the club membership
structure and although this provides challenges
for us, we must embrace these participants they
are the future of our game. This is a key priority
for the business moving forward.
High Performance
As New Zealand Golf’s focus has broadened in
recent times into the Community Golf area, the
budget for our High Performance programmes
has reduced significantly. The national teams
and squads that represent New Zealand abroad,
and of course those players who move through
to the professional ranks to contend on the
world stage, are a great source of pride and
inspiration for the players who aspire to follow
in their footsteps and for the weekend warrior
alike.
National Handicapping System
In late 2013 the organisation embarked on an
extensive handicap system review process. Over
240 Golf Clubs and nearly 10,000 members
replied to the survey and the proposed
The role and relevance of our High Performance
programme continues in these changing
times as High Performance remains the face
of participation. To truly get a sense of this we
need only to reflect back to the Rugby World
Cup of 2011 and more recently the Cricket World
New Zealand Golf
2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements
11
Cup. Success at the highest level supports the
growth of the game, sponsorship opportunities
within the game and of course player
development itself.
The highlights of 2014 continue to come from
one Lydia Ko. Her performances continue to
belie her young age as she goes from strength
to strength with her year ending win and
capturing of the race to CME Globe signalling
what is still to come.
Espirito Santo Team
Munchin Keh,
Julianne Alvarez
& Zoe Brake
Eisenhower Team
Tae Koh,
Joshua Munn
& Vaughn McCall
On the amateur scene 2014 was a ‘worlds year’
with this iteration of the men’s and women’s
event being held in Japan. The host club for
both the Eisenhower Trophy and Espirito Santo
Trophy was the picturesque Karuizawa Resort
just outside of Tokyo. The depth of talent of both
the men’s and women’s events was evident
through the magnificent performances of the
winning teams and those who challenged them.
Unfortunately the New Zealand women’s team
fell off the pace early and struggled to get back
into the competition, finishing 34th.
The men’s team performance of 15 under
par would have once upon a time seen them
contend for the title or at least a place inside the
top 10. No longer, the incredible 38 under par
total of the USA secured them the trophy and
left the New Zealand team fighting for a top 20
placing, ultimately just missing out and tying
for 22nd. The international amateur scene
has certainly become highly competitive with
most countries developing their own systems
to support these young players as they progress
their talents. The most noticeable attribute of
the winning teams is their fearless approach to
their play coupled with the skill to execute the
shots required, something our own programme
will continue to strive to instil.
While the feats of Lydia Ko have been well
published and her many wins celebrated, 2014
also saw Steven Alker, Josh Geary, Gareth
Paterson, Ryan Fox and Simon Owen win
professional titles on the professional stage.
Danny Lee and Tim Wilkinson retained their
PGA Tour cards in 2014 for the 2015 season
while Steve Alker overcame his 2013 near miss
to gain his 2015 PGA Tour Card, a fantastic
achievement by these three players to reach the
big show.
James Beale’s two international victories
warrant an individual mention as this young
amateur player will now have the opportunity
to play a PGA Tour event in 2015. His win in
the Pacific Northwest Amateur in July firmly
signalled his abilities but his win at the Canadian
Amateur in August cemented them. He rose
to be the number one ranked New Zealand
amateur player on the World Amateur Golf
Rankings in 2014 and now looks forward to the
challenge of playing the 2015 Canadian Open,
July 20-26th at the Glen Abbey Golf Club.
Most encouragingly was the three young
players in 2014 who stole the show in Australia
capturing three separate Australian junior
titles. Bailey Smith, Alanna Campbell and
Henry Spring all showed the emerging junior
talent throughout New Zealand that anything is
possible with some hard work, determination
and self-belief.
To further refine our programme, a review of
High Performance activity will be undertaken
in 2015. The goal of this process is to further
improve the philosophies and practices that
make up our programme. We will compare
ourselves with leading international countries
and seek the assistance and expertise with
High Performance Sport New Zealand to review
the best way forward for our programmes. We
do wish to ensure this aspect of our business
continues to operate in a manner that makes
best use of the resources we have available and
achieves results we can all be proud of.
New Zealand Golf would like to offer our thanks
to Srixon, Cobra Puma Golf and Golf Distributors
as key supporters of the High Performance
programme.
Our sincere thanks also go to our men’s and
women’s national selectors Anne Seed and Lisa
Herbert, John Spraggs, Michael Barltrop and
Rod Patterson. We also thank those who have
volunteered their time to manage teams this
year including Jay Carter, Reon Sayer, Aaron
Walsh, Brent Paterson, Karen de Lautour and
Libby Steele.
ISPS Handa New Zealand Women’s Open
hosted by Christchurch
The stunning Clearwater Golf Club again played
host to the ISPS Handa New Zealand Women’s
Open. With co-sanctioning again with the
Ladies European Tour and the Australasian
Ladies Professional Golf Tour, a stellar field was
assembled which in turn attracted huge galleries
of spectators with many thousands watching
our own Lydia Ko.
Our thanks go to the Christchurch City Council
and our title sponsor ISPS Handa. The event
would not run as well without their generous
support.
A special mention and thanks also to Bob Tuohy
and his team at TA Golf. Bob is a close friend of
New Zealand Golf
2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements
13
New Zealand Golf and does an exceptional job
for us in staging our Women’s Open.
The Board Chair and CEO are ex officio on all
Board subcommittees.
New Zealand Open Championship
In partnership with Michael Hill Tournaments
Limited, we were delighted this year to return to
Queenstown and host the world’s most unique
Open Championship, played with a concurrent
Pro-Am format and over two fantastic venues
(The Hills and Millbrook). The production and
staging of the event was world class and of
significant importance, the financial risk and
operational workload is now removed from New
Zealand Golf.
International Appointments:
Our sincere thanks to the MHTL team led by
John Hart and Michael Glading. Our Open
Championship could not be in better hands and
we thank you for the tireless enthusiasm and
passion you continue to bring to the event.
Staff
The Board extends its considerable appreciation
and thanks to the New Zealand Golf staff, led
by Chief Executive Dean Murphy. The staff of
New Zealand Golf is a relatively small team
considering the scope of the work before them
and we are very fortunate to have the services of
such fine and dedicated people for which we are
grateful.
New Zealand Golf Board &
Management
The Board of New Zealand Golf is a voluntary
Board and I am grateful for the time and
expertise they provide to New Zealand Golf at
Board and subcommittee level. Each member
of the Board is passionate about the game of
golf and brings a great variety of knowledge and
experience to the governance of our sport.
During 2014 we welcomed Anna Shires and
Mike Howard to the Board however regrettably,
Brent Robinson left the Board after two
years in order to focus on new employment
opportunities. Brent’s contribution to the Board
as a Director was outstanding and we wish him
well in his future endeavours.
Board Subcommittees
The Board has a number of subcommittees and
I wish to record my thanks for the Directors who
have added these extra responsibilities to their
Director duties:
•
Open Championships:
Michael Smith (Chair), Paul Fyfe,
Mike Howard
•
Audit and Risk:
Anna Shires (Chair), Michael Smith,
Adrienne Greenwood, Philip Hassall

Looking Forward
While New Zealand Golf has made good
progress in 2014 there remains much work to
do. Our new strategic direction provides the
road map forward however we are conscious a
great deal of dedicated hard work will need to
be undertaken in order to achieve the targets we
have set ourselves. Improving the health of our
sport is vital to us all and there is much work we
need to do in the future if we are to build on our
success in this area.
Golf is a sport that has a proud history and fine
traditions. While remaining conscious of this
legacy, we do need to look ahead differently
if we are to succeed. The world outside is
changing at a rapid pace and we must ensure
that the rate of change within the golf sector
keeps pace. We have a wonderful network of
clubs and assets around the country and it is
our responsibility to do our best to safeguard the
future of the sport in New Zealand.
Omaha Beach
Golf Club
As a final note, we offer our thanks to the
community of golf for their contribution to the
game. Most people who contribute to the game
of golf in our District Associations and Clubs do
so on a voluntary basis and for this we offer our
sincere thanks and appreciation.

AUDITOR’S REPORT
Opinion
In our opinion the financial statements on pages 25 to 42:
Independent auditor’s report
To the members of New Zealand Golf Incorporated
Report on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of New Zealand Golf Incorporated
(''the incorporated society'') on pages 25 to 42. The financial statements comprise the statement
of financial position as at 31 December 2014, the statements of financial performance,
movements in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Board's responsibility for the financial statements
The board is responsible for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting practice in New Zealand that give a true and fair view of the matters to
which they relate, and for such internal control as the board determines is necessary to enable
the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement whether due to
fraud or error.
•
comply with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand;
•
give a true and fair view of the financial position of the incorporated society as at 31
December 2014 and of its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended.
Other matter
The financial statements of New Zealand Golf Incorporated, for the year ended 31 December
2013, were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those
statements on 2 April 2014.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
In accordance with the requirements of sections 16(1)(d) and 16(1)(e) of the Financial
Reporting Act 1993, we report that:
•
we have obtained all the information and explanations that we have required; and
•
in our opinion, proper accounting records have been kept by New Zealand Golf
Incorporated as far as appears from our examination of those records.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand).
Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from
material misstatement.
17 April 2015
Auckland
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s
judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the incorporated society’s preparation of the financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the matters to which they relate in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the incorporated society's internal control. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates, as well as evaluating the presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion.
Subject to certain restrictions, partners and employees of our firm may also deal with the
incorporated society on normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the
business of the incorporated society. These matters have not impaired our independence as
auditor of the incorporated society. The firm has no other relationship with, or interest in, the
incorporated society.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
d)Receivables
1. Statement of Accounting Policies
e) Inventories
Basis of Preparation
New Zealand Golf (Inc) (the “Organisation”) is
an incorporated society registered under the
Incorporated Societies Act 1908.
The financial statements comprise statements
of: financial performance; movements in equity;
statement of financial position; statement of
cashflows; accounting policies; the notes to
these financial statements.
The financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting
practice in New Zealand. They comply with
approved Financial Reporting Standards (FRSs)
and Statements of Standard Accounting Practice
(SSAPs) as appropriate for entities that qualify for
and apply differential reporting concessions.
From 1 April 2014, the new Financial Reporting
Act 2013 ( “FRA 2013”) has come into force
replacing the Financial Reporting Act 1993,
this is effective for entities reporting under
the Charities Act 2005 with reporting periods
beginning on or after 1 April 2015. This will be
effective for the organisations 31 December 2016
year end.
For New Zealand Golf (Inc), a registered charity
with the Charities Commission, there will be
statutory financial reporting obligations which
require preparation of financial statements in
accordance with the prescribed accounting
standards by the External Reporting Board (XRB)
- a new suite of accounting standards for notfor-profit public benefit entities (NFP PBEs).
Charities which meet the definition of ‘large’
(defined as having expenses in excess of $ 30
million) will be in Tier 1 (full reporting) of the NZ
PBE Accounting Standards Framework, while
those with operating expenditure between $2
million to $30 million will be in Tier 2 (reduced
disclosures regime). Based on the current
expenditure, New Zealand Golf (Inc) would be a
Tier 2 reporting entity.
Differential Reporting
The Organisation qualifies for differential
reporting as it is not publicly accountable and
is not large as defined in the Framework for
30
Differential Reporting. All available differential
reporting exemptions allowed under the
framework for differential reporting have been
adopted except for:
• FRS 9 – Information to be disclosed in the
financial statements, where some additional
disclosures have been made.
• FRS 3 – Accounting for Property, Plant and
Equipment, where the Organisation has not
opted to align depreciation rates with those
set by the Inland Revenue Department of
New Zealand.
• FRS 10 - Statement of Cash Flows, where the
Organisation has opted to present a cash flow
statement.
Measurement Base
The measurement base adopted is historical
cost, except for financial instruments which are
initially recognised at fair value
Specific Accounting Policies
a) Investment in Associate
Associates are entities in which the
Organisation, either directly or indirectly, has
a significant but not controlling interest. The
Associate’s results are included in the statement
of financial performance, using the equity
method. The investment in the Associate is
carried in the Organisation’s statement of
financial position at cost plus acquisition change
in the Organisation’s share of net assets in the
Associate, less any impairment value.
b) Cash and bank balances
Cash and bank balances are short-term, highly
liquid investments that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and which are subject
to an insignificant risk of changes in value, with
original maturity dates less than 90 days. Cash
and bank balances with original maturities that
exceed 90 days are recognised as investments.
c)Investments
Investments are stated at cost less impairment.
Receivables are stated at estimated realisable
value after providing against debts where
collection is doubtful. Bad debts are written off
in the period which they are identified.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and the
net realisable value. Cost is based on the firstin first-out principle and includes expenditure
incurred in acquiring the inventories and
bringing them to their existing location.
f) Property, Plant & Equipment
Items of property, plant and equipment are
initially recorded at cost and depreciated in
note g). Initial cost includes the purchase
consideration, or fair value in the case of
donated assets and those costs directly
attributable to bringing the asset to the location
and condition for its intended use.
Any subsequent expenditure that increases
the economic benefits derived from an asset
is capitalised. Expenditure on repairs and
maintenance that does not increase the
economic benefits of an asset is expensed in the
period it is incurred.
Items of property, plant and equipment are
written down immediately if impairment in
the value of the asset causes its recoverable
amount to fall below its carrying amount. The
impairment is recognised in the statement of
financial performance.
Where an item of property, plant and equipment
is disposed of, the gain or loss recognised in the
statement of financial performance is calculated
at the difference between the net sale price
and the carrying amount of the asset. Any
revaluation surplus is reduced or increased by
the amount applicable to that item.
g) Depreciation
10 years
4 years
SL
SL
i) Taxation
New Zealand Golf is exempt from tax due to its
status as an amateur sports promoter under the
current tax legislation.
j) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
The financial statements have been prepared on
a GST exclusive basis, except accounts receivable
and accounts payable which are stated inclusive
of GST.
k) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the
Organisation has a present obligation (legal
or constructive) as a result of a past event,
it is probable that an outflow of resources
embodying economic benefits will be required
to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate
can be made as to the amount of the obligation.
l) Revenue
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is
probable that the economic benefits will flow to
the Organisation and the revenue can be reliably
measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value
of the consideration received or receivable, net
of GST and discounts. The following specific
recognition criteria must be met before revenue
is recognised:
Government Grants, Grants &
Sponsorship
Government Grants, Grants & Sponsorship
received are recognised as revenue when
they are received, unless there are contractual
conditions attached that remain to be fulfilled, or
if any are received in advance.
Interest
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment
is calculated on a straight-line basis (SL) as
indicated below.
Leasehold Improvements

IT Equipment
Tournament Equipment

h) Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost less
accumulated amortisation. Intangible assets are
amortised as outlined below.
Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues,
using the effective interest method.
m)Impairment
The carrying value of each asset is assessed
for indicators of impairment at reporting date.
Where the estimated recoverable amount of
the asset is less that its carrying amount, the
asset is written down. The recoverable amount
of an asset is the higher of its fair value less
cost to sell, and value in use. Any impairment
loss is recognised in the statement of financial
performance.
New Zealand Golf
2014 Annual Report and Financial Statements

n)Leases
Leases or hire purchase contracts where the
Organisation assumes substantially all the risks
and rewards of ownership are classified as
finance leases. All other leases are classified as
operating leases.
Operating Leases
Operating lease payments are recognised
as an expense in the statement of financial
performance on a straight-line basis over the
lease term. Any lease incentives are recognised
as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives
is recognised as a reduction of rental expense
on a straight-line basis except where another
systematic basis is more representative of the
time pattern in which economic benefits from
the leased asset are consumed.

20.Sir Bob Charles Scholarship
In November 2001 the Organisation paid $140,000 to acquire 500 shares, representing 50% of the
issued shares of New Zealand Golf Network Ltd (‘NZGN’). In December 2001, NZGN issued a further
50,000 shares, of which the Organisation acquired 25,000 for the consideration of $1.00 per share;
15,000 shares remain unpaid and uncalled.
The Sir Bob Charles Scholarship has been accounted for as a separate liability account. These funds
are invested on behalf of Sir Bob Charles where the Organisation can only use the interest for
Scholarship payments.
In October 2012 the shareholders of NZGN resolved to reduce the number of shares on issue to
20,000, of which now the Organisation holds 10,000, thereby cancelling 15,500 shares that the
organisation owned.
To maximise interest revenue from the funds, the funds are invested in high interest term deposits
with New Zealand registered banks - refer note 13.
NZGN’s primary business is the operation of the Slope Handicap system on behalf of the
Organisation and the development of golf management system software. NZGN has a balance date
of 31 March and the entity is not audited. The Directors of New Zealand Golf Network are not aware
of any significant events or transactions since NZGN’s balance date.

26. Going Concern
A Heads of Agreement was entered into by the Organisation and the New Zealand Professional Golf
Association (PGA) on 23 April 2013. The intention of this agreement was to create a whole of golf
strategic framework and investigate any alignment or integration opportunities.
An Establishment Committee is tasked to recommend the approach to potential alignment or
integration of the NZPGA and the Organisation, and to oversee any change process necessary. The
outcome of this process is yet to be finalised, however the Directors believe the outcome will not
affect the going concern assumption of the Organisation as a continuing entity. The Directors have
continued to adopt the going concern assumption of the New Zealand Golf Inc. for the year ended
31 December 2014.
