PRESIDENT’S REPORT
As our Club enters an historic year
to celebrate 150 years of racing,
friendship and history, we are
approaching the midpoint of our
2012 – 2017 Strategic Plan, and it is
pleasing to report on the significant
progress of the past year.
Membership
Our Membership has responded very positively to the
quarterly incentive draws over the past two years, and we
are confident of achieving our target Membership Cap
of 5,200 in the first quarter of 2015. Accordingly, we have
announced that our Membership will be closed as of
Tuesday 31 March 2015.
We will thus re-establish the waiting list to join Tattersall’s
Club, which will be actively managed to retain our
Membership Cap, with reviews each six months to admit
new Members. This is a milestone achievement of which
all Members can be justifiably proud, and it reflects the
enduring traditions of our Club and the fine facilities
which are on offer.
Recognition and thanks are due to the House and
Membership Sub-Committee, chaired by Michael
Paramor, for their efforts to achieve this objective.
Member Services
The successful delivery of services to our Members
is dependent on our extremely dedicated staff, who
welcome us and make us feel “at home”. Our Chief
Executive, Dale St George, joined us in late September
last year, and, with his impressive career in the hospitality
industry, has soon shown his dedication to further
improving the Club Member experience. Initiatives
underway include:
•Staff development with a focus on service to
Members;
•The implementation of the recommendations from
the Food and Beverage Review including a substantial
upgrade to our kitchen;
•The establishment of regional chapters for our
Country Members with Cairns and Rockhampton
underway; and
•Further engagement with our wide range of
Subsidiary Clubs to support their activities, and we
acknowledge the efforts and hard work of all the
Subsidiary Club Committees.
Financial Sustainability
The Club’s operations have performed reasonably in a
somewhat challenging year, noting there are several areas
where performance can be improved. With the assistance
of revenue from our Arcade, and other tenancies, and the
continuing low interest rate environment, the Club has
6
generated a profit of $1,328,059 (including a $226,384
non-cash adjustment).
This outcome is essential to meet our obligations for
loan repayments and capital expenditure to preserve
our Club’s heritage and the facilities enjoyed by our
Members:
•The Club’s total debt has been reduced by $1,360,413
during 2014, and now stands at $16.1 million ($15.3
million bank loan and $780,000 related party loan
with Tattersall’s Racing Club) and
•Capital expenditure total of $824,590 has enabled
us to carry out the essential replacement of the air
conditioning plant, the steam room and other
critical works.
Year on year, the cash position for the Club has decreased
by a net $14,887. The detailed financial statements
are included in this report. Our new Treasurer, Stuart
Waddington, is to be thanked for his efforts since joining
the Committee, together with our Financial Controller,
David Vojinov.
Property
Our Heritage premises, as well as the new component
constructed in the 1990s, which are absolutely world
class, require significant ongoing maintenance and
capital expenditure. Repairs and maintenance amounted
to $513,143 for the year. Significant works during 2014
included:
•Switchboard upgrade in both the Healy Room, and
Accommodation on Level 4;
•Chiller replacement on Level 4;
•Completion of the second air-conditioning unit,
servicing Doree and Vodafone;
•The carpet replacement on the North Balcony,
Committee Room, stairs leading down to the
Members’ Bar, Administration and O’Duffy Library;
•Full kitchen upgrade;
•Duct cleaning of air-conditioning units in the
Members’ Bar, Administration, O’Duffy Library,
Healy Room and Function Centre;
•Lighting upgrades in Concierge;
•Repairs to credenzas in Accommodation (project
ongoing);
•Curtain cleaning;
•Vinyl repairs in the main kitchen;
•Painting in Concierge, Level 1 and 2 lift foyers and
Function Centre corridors;
•Refurbishment of 18 floor and 38 bedside lamps in
Accommodation;
•
Timberwork around Club revitalised;
•Concierge desk installation including phone, power
and data connection upgrades;
•Internal office moves completed with
Accommodation and Reception now located at
Concierge;
•Painting related to storm damage was conducted
including the Health Centre and pool, North
Balcony, Billiards Room, West Balcony, Members’
Dining Room and both the Edward and Queen Street
awnings;
•Marble floor strip and polish in Concierge, Level 1
and Level 2, including lifts;
•Carpet cleaning completed throughout the Club; and
•General cleaning of Club including mirrors, glass,
brass, timberwork and minor paint works.
The Arcade has seen significant changes in 2014, most
noticeably being the establishment of Marchetti Cafe
which graces the central portion of the Arcade and has
received much favourable comment.
The tireless efforts of our long serving Property SubCommittee Chair, Allan Paterson, are commendable, and
the Club is extremely well served by our Property and
Facilities Manager, David Nott.
Community Engagement
Tattersall’s Club is a notable landmark in the heart of
the City of Brisbane, and we take pride as a community
spirited organisation in presenting our premises in the
finest condition possible. In particular, Club Members are
rightfully proud of our heritage listed premises, which are
open to the public each year for escorted tours during
Brisbane Open House.
Many of our Subsidiary Clubs have selected their own
charities which are well supported each year, including
our Bowlers, Cricketers and Golfers. Our Subsidiary
Clubs conduct many events at community club facilities
across our region, which provides valuable support
to those other organisations including thoroughbred
racing Clubs. It was particularly pleasing this year to
see 20 Members raise $1,000 at the inaugural lunch of
our Cairns Chapter, and we acknowledge Club Member
Marshall Betzel for this initiative.
Many of the Club events held during the year
incorporate fundraising, and below is a list of some of the
organisations which have benefitted from the generosity
of our Club Members:
•Youngcare;
Epliepsy Queensland; and
•
St Vincent’s Hospital Brisbane.
Our support to the arts community through the
Tattersall’s Club Landscape Art Prize over 25 years, as well
as other organisations, is endorsed by our Members. We
recognise our role in the greater community, and whilst
we exist primarily for the support of our Members, we
understand our obligations to provide support to others.
Sponsors
Tattersall’s has strong relationships with its sponsors and
appreciates their loyalty and generosity. The Committee
wishes to recognise the support of Sky Racing, Carlton
and United Breweries, Centenary Classic Mercedes-Benz,
Singapore Airlines, Hardy Brothers Jewellers, Travel
Associates, ALH Group, Southbank Insurance Brokers,
IPG Connect, Black and White Cabs and Parnell Partners
Group Australia. Their contributions enrich our Member
life at the Club and I encourage you to support the above
businesses where possible.
Subsidiary Clubs
The Sub Clubs are integral to Tattersall’s Club, and
provide a wide range of activities for Members to relax
and enjoy each others company. As mentioned previously,
the Committee sees fit to provide ongoing support to
the Sub Clubs, and in return, the Sub Clubs are able
to support the many initiatives and events held by
Tattersall’s Club.
Congratulations are due to all the hardworking Members
of the various Sub Club Committees. In particular, the
reports by each Sub Club are recommended reading for
all Club Members.
Highlights of 2014
Last year was another very successful year for the
Club, and whilst it is difficult to choose from the many
achievements, the following events resounded:
•Black Tie Boxing maintains its popularity, and the
Committee has endeavoured to ensure more Club
Members can attend this event in 2015;
•Our racing calendar was well supported, with Club
Members in particular enjoying the facilities at
Doomben Racecourse;
•The 25th Tattersall’s Club Landscape Art Prize, won
by 2014 Archibald Prize winner Fiona Lowry, along
with the inaugural art tour to Sydney and the Blue
Mountains;
•The Tattersall’s Golf Tour to Cairns and Port Douglas,
helping to launch the Cairns Chapter;
•
Hear and Say;
•
Gallipoli Medical Research Foundation;
•
Lord Mayor’s Community Trust;
•
Mayor of Cairns Christmas Appeal;
•Movember;
•
•A strong year of Sportsman’s Grill Nights featuring
Max Walker, Gordon Bray and Mark Ella;
•The 75th anniversary of our magnificent Art Deco
Members’ Dining Room in August 2014;
7
•The establishment of the Tattersall’s Shooters Club,
through the efforts of Club Member, Liam O’Brien;
(circa 30 per cent) from our Arcade tenancy rentals. Few
other Clubs can rely on such support.
•The Melbourne Cup Calcutta and the superb
celebrations within the Club on Melbourne Cup Day;
Particularly in this time of low interest rates, it is
important that we continue to reduce our debt, and 2015
looks likely to see even further declines in interest rates
before they pick up again in 2016 and beyond. From the
bank loan amount of $27.8 million in 1997 (when the
new section of Tattersall’s was completed), our current
bank loan balance now stands at approximately $15.3
million. We remain on track to decrease our level of debt
to a forecasted amount of $3.15 million by April 2020.
•The establishment of our Heritage Volunteers group,
and the amazing work done by this team of Club
Members, with particular thanks to Vice President,
Michael Cassidy, and Club Member, Michael O’Shea;
and
•The launch of Tattersall’s new Club website and
first Member portal, providing Members with the
opportunity to view finances and update details
from home.
Outlook for 2015
Our Chief Executive, Dale St George, has developed a
detailed Business Plan for 2015, which has been approved
by the Committee. This includes a very special calendar
of events with some gala occasions to celebrate the 150th
anniversary of the first Tattersall’s Cup, held in 1865.
With the Membership Cap in place, it is vital that the
Club remains relevant to the times and continues to
attract new Members who will continue our traditions
of friendship and maintain our long association with
thoroughbred racing.
As indicated previously in the past year, a review and
update of our Rules has commenced. The spirit of the
current Rules will be sustained, with the aim being to
modernise the Rules format and provide greater clarity.
A program of extensive consultation and Member
engagement will be announced in due course.
We thank all Club Members for their continued support,
and look forward enthusiastically to celebrating in
accordance with our motto – Amicitia Vita Est.
Des Whybird
President
Treasurer’s Report
Club Members will be very pleased
to hear that the Club’s 2014 trading
and financial performance was
again strong, despite ongoing
challenges presented by the
prevailing economy.
The Club made an operating profit
of $1,328,059 (including a non-cash
amount of $226,384) on turnover
of $14 million. This enabled the Club to strengthen its
balance sheet by reducing its debts and paying for a
program of maintaining/improving our most precious
physical asset – our iconic Heritage listed building. We
can be thankful for the strong contribution to revenue
8
It is noted that the $780,000 related party loan with
Tattersall’s Racing Club is being repaid at the rate of
$50,000 p.a as per the agreement.
This strategy, and the decisions made by your Committee
and management team, will assure the ongoing strength
of our Club to deliver benefits to Members and our
community. We will also, where appropriate, be in a
strong position to consider new opportunities as they
might arise.

Tattersall’s 150th celebrations year gives cause to reflect
on the fiscal responsibility that has been passed on from
Committee to Committee and Treasurer to Treasurer.
The visionary and courageous decisions taken by the
Committeemen in the 1990’s has enabled Tattersall’s to
grow into its current fortunate position. It is viewed with
some envy by most other Clubs and should certainly be
viewed with pride by our Members.
Thanks and acknowledgment are made to our Chief
Executive, Dale St George, and our Financial Controller,
David Vojinov, as we remain on track in delivering value
to Club Members and continue our strong financial
performance.

The highlight was the traditional game against the
Queensland Schoolboys U 13 XI, an annual game that
dates back to the Ray Lindwall era of the 1950’s. A 20:20
game was played at Souths Cricket Grounds where
Tattersall’s bowled first and chased 107 to win in the 19th
over, retaining the Joe Raymond Trophy. The schoolboys
were presented with their Queensland caps during the
innings break and were provided with funding to assist
their participation in their upcoming interstate carnival.

The annual internal game “Captains XI “ vs “Presidents
XI” was a 35:35 game played in March at Brisbane Boys
College. The short boundaries brought up many 4’s and
6’s making for a competitive run chase of 220 resulting in
a narrow win to the “Presidents XI”.
Tattersall’s Backseaters once again prevailed in the
Gold Coast Masters and also won a close match against
Brookfield United at their local oval.
The Backseaters Club has an exciting schedule of matches
scheduled in 2015 and looks forward to welcoming the
participation of existing and new Members.

sponsors for their generous donations.
The final of the Meiklejohn Pairs, at St. Lucia Bowls Club,
saw Wayne Homan and Michael Dymnycz claim victory
over runners-up Garry Ryan and Brian Bennetts.
Tattersall’s Bowls capped off the year with the annual

TATTERSALL’S GOLF CLUB
TATTERSALL’S COLTS CLUB
In 2014, Tattersall’s saw the revival of a younger Members
interest group, known as the ‘Colts’ Club. The purpose
of Colts is to provide a forum for younger Members
to engage with each other, as well as Tattersall’s Club
more broadly, through a range of activities which are of
particular interest to younger gentlemen. At the end of
2014, Colts had 88 registered Members.
The re-introduction of a breakfast series proved popular
with speakers including Comet Ridge Chief Executive
Officer Tor McCaul, Bruce Heiser of Heiser Gallery, Mr
Wyatt Roy MP, The Honourable Bob Katter MP and Lord
Mayor Graham Quirk.
The Colts Club engaged in a diamonds masterclass with
Karl Schwantes, Tattersall’s Member and the Managing
Director of Xennox Diamonds and held the inaugural
Colts Cellarmaster tasting night alongside facilitator and
Tattersall’s Cellarmaster, Stacy Holmes. Colts give a special
thank you to Mathew Carter and Stacy Holmes for sharing
their wine knowledge and facilitating the evening.
The Colts held two snooker tournaments during 2014
at the Club. Special mention must go to Tom Percy and
Nick Dwyer who respectively won the first and second
Colts snooker tournaments. The Colts would also like to
Tattersall’s Golf Club extends its thanks to its Members
and guests for their ongoing support in 2014. Again
the friendship and success of Tattersall’s Golf Club was
expressed in the increased numbers participating in
the 25 games played on 21 South East Queensland golf
courses. The Golf Club thanks the Members and staff of
these courses in allowing us to enjoy their facilities and
hospitality.
The year saw the introduction of the computerised golf
link scoring system, placing the Club on the same level as
most Member Golf Clubs. Special thanks needs to go to
‘Club Man of the Year’, Dennis Roel, for the many hours
spent implementing the scoring system and Peter Symons
for his three years as Club Captain.

In 2015 TMC will celebrate eight years strong and see
the invitation to be involved in business and community
continually increasing.
TMC would like to sincerely thank the Tattersall’s
Committee for their ongoing suppor. Also a special
thanks once again to all the team at Tattersall’s for
providing exemplary service and attention to detail.
It is pleasing to see our Sub Clubs offering unique
interests and benefits to all Members, further
strengthening our Tattersall’s Club as Australia’s Premier
Private Club.

TATTERSALL’S RACQUETEERS CLUB
TATTERSALL’S ROWING CLUB
Milestones abounded the Racqueteers in 2014 including
45 years of existence and 21 years of Presidency plus
personal milestones for Members including Reg
Kempnich’s 80th birthday and Frank Walters 90th
birthday, ensuring him as the Club’s most grown up
Member. Tattersall’s Racqueteers remembers Graeme
Maher and Lennie Goeldner.
Tattersall’s Rowing Club extends its sincere thanks to
Club Captain, Bill Bridgeford, Treasurer, Peter Schmidt,
and Committee Members, Kim Forrest-Winchester, Greg
Clarke and Katherine Lambros for their contributions
to the organisation and direction of the Club’s activities
in 2014. An enormous debt of gratitude is also owed to
Rebecca Webber and Sophie Palin of Doboy Cold Stores,
whose effective management of the Club’s administration
must be applauded.
This year has been one of consolidation, with healthy
Thursday attendances throughout the year. This level of
support has also carried over to the monthly lunches, and
other social functions including Christmas in July and the
annual Trophy Night dinner.
Darby Munro and erstwhile Racqueteer John Rogers
deserve a big thank you for their organisation of two
successful Friday lunches. Don Griffin has fulfilled the
promise and capitalised on the rapid development in his
game by taking out the Ron Hambleton Singles.
Rick Rylands has held over the Regis Cup Open Singles
Championship since 2009.
The Peter Geraghty Memorial Doubles Championship
produced the most memorable final in the Club’s history,
with Jon Hogan and Warren Porter securing the win.
Another Life Member, Brad Grinstead, was the worthy
recipient of the Norm Katter crystal racquet trophy for
the Member best exemplifying the Racqueteers spirit on
and off the court.
In the hope that they will have learned their lessons and
will perform better next year, the existing Committee
Members have had their sentences extended for a further
year.
The Committee is:
President
Adrian Symons
Secretary
Bob Gardner
Treasurer
Ron Woodhouse
Court Captain Kos Psaltis
The Racqueteers meet every Thursday afternoon from
1.30pm at Morningside Tennis Centre and welcome all
Tattersall’s Members to come down for a hit.
Adrian Symons
President
Once again, the Rowing Club finished the year in the
black, with a modest balance showing in the Club’s
bank account.
The number of regular rowers peaked at 27 in 2014.
The Learn to Row Program is a vital aspect of any
Rowing Club’s endeavours and the Rowing Club will
continue to negotiate and ensure the availability of
equipment for participants.
Building on the successes of 2013, rowers embarked on
a very full regatta program for 2014. The racing season
with the Pine Rivers Regatta, featuring events for Single
Scull, Double Scull and Pairs, only. The Brisbane and
GPS Regatta followed. The Queensland Masters’ Regatta
was then held in early April in Rockhampton and was
followed by a small contingent of rowers heading down
to country Victoria to compete in the Australian Masters’
Regatta, at Ballarat. The 2014 Brisbane Winter Racing
Series commenced in May and concluded in June.
Special thanks must be extended to Bill O’Chee,
Katherine Lambros and Kathy Phillips for giving their
time and sharing their many years of rowing experience
with others in the Club, throughout the year. The Rowing
Club is very fortunate, indeed to have had access to
coaches of their calibre working to develop the skills of
our Members.
Tattersall’s Rowing expresses its thanks to all those
who proudly wore the Tattersall’s Zootie in 2014. The
enthusiasm and support shown by the Committee
of Tattersall’s Club Brisbane for the endeavours of
the Rowing Sub Club, throughout 2014 must also be
acknowledged.

TATTERSALL’S SHOOTERS CLUB
Tattersall’s Shooters’ inaugural year as a Sub Club has
been nothing short of a resounding success.
For the calendar year 2014 the Club can report the following:
• 116 registered Sub Club Members;
•Over 130 entries into range registers in Brisbane gun
Clubs;
•Just under 40 enrolments in weapons safety courses;
and
• In excess of 1,700 rounds of spent ammunition.
In 2014 the Shooters conducted seven events of various
shooting disciplines, which have provided an opportunity
for shooters of all skill levels to safely participate and
enjoy a quality, safe time with friends and family. The
Sub Club Committee was buoyed by the presence of
many families at the events. The year concluded with a
presentation evening and dinner held at Tattersall’s Club
where the Shooters hosted Members of the Queensland
Military Rifle Club Committee.
The trophies and winners of the Annual Shoot are as
follows:
Thank you to all Club Members who have supported
us this year, in particular the Tattersall’s Shooters Club
Committee of Michael Vail, Conor O’Brien, Carl Hilton
and Mark Luxford.
Tattersall’s Shooters urges all Members with even a vague
interest in learning about firearms in a safe environment
to get involved. The Club has enjoyed 100 per cent
satisfaction and 2015 will be even more enjoyable.
See you at the Club or on the range.

TATTERSALL’S WALKERS CLUB
Tattersall’s Walkers has had a successful fifth year as a
Sub Club and its seventh year of walking. The number
of interested Members keeps growing with 44 Members
and 34 Associates registered. During the year the group
walked every Saturday with two walks planned on some
days resulting in 62 walks. There has been an average of
19 walkers per weekend during the season and 15 per
walk throughout the year. The walkers comprised of 78
interested walkers incuding Club Members, their partners
and guests. The Honeyeater and Slaughter Falls Tracks
at Mt Coot-tha have remained the regular venue on
Saturday mornings with coffee at the café.

John O’Reilly
Plans are well under way for another year of walking every
Saturday somewhere in South East Queensland in 2015
including, after the success of the Dorrigo weekend, more
trips to destinations in Queensland and New South Wales.
Looking forward to what will be achieved in 2015 is very
exciting. A very special event on Sunday 24 May at “Talgai”
Homestead, Allora has already been confirmed and thanks
must go to the generosity of the Nioa family for assisting the
Club’s efforts to take Tattersall’s to the country.
14
The total distance covered in 2014 was over 500 kilometres.
The year opened with a second successful series of
evening walks along the riverside walkway. During the
year the group returned to some former walks and
explored some new opportunities including venues along
South East Queensland’s creeks and trails in State Forests,
Conservation Parks, National Parks and in Brisbane
and Ipswich City. There were four weekend trips away
to Girraween, Caloundra, Stradbroke Island and a long
weekend venture further afield in Northern New South
Wales to Dorrigo National Park.

President
TATTERSALL’S WINE CLUB
Tattersall’s Wine Club celebrated its 25th anniversary
in September and continues to offer its Members the
enjoyment of food and wine, happy fellowship and
exposure to a wide variety of wines and winemakers. The

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. S
UMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Tattersall’s Club is a not-for-profit entity run for the
benefit of its Members.
The financial report is a general purpose financial
report that has been prepared in accordance with
Accounting Standards, including Australian Accounting
Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements
of the Australian Accounting Standards Board.
The financial report is presented in Australian Dollars,
which is also the functional currency of the Club.
The financial report complies with all Australian
equivalents to International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS).
The Club has applied the relief available to it under
ASIC Class Order 98/100 and accordingly, amounts in
the financial statements and annual report, have been
rounded off to the nearest dollar.
The following is a summary of the material accounting
policies adopted in the preparation of the financial
report. The accounting policies have been consistently
applied unless otherwise stated.
Basis of Preparation
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals
basis and is based on historical costs. The fair value basis
of accounting has been applied to selected assets and
liabilities where applicable.
(a) Income Tax
Tax effect accounting principles have been adopted,
whereby income tax expense has been calculated on
pre-tax accounting profits after adjustments for nonassessable or disallowed items. The tax effect of timing
differences, which occur when items are included or
allowed for income tax purposes in a period different to
that for accounting, have not been taken to account as
their realisation is not considered to be more likely than
not.
The mutuality principal provides that where the principal
aim of a Club is to provide and improve the facilities to
its Members, any revenues or expenses generated as a
result of transactions with members are excluded from
the Club’s assessable income or allowable deductions for
income tax purposes.
(b) Trade Receivables
Trade receivables, which generally have 30 to 90
day terms, are recognised initially at fair value and
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method, less an allowance for any
uncollectable amounts.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an
ongoing basis. An allowance for doubtful debts is made
when there is objective evidence that the full amount is
no longer probable of being collected. Bad debts are
written off when identified.
20
(c) Trade and Other Payables
Trade and other payables are unsecured and carried at
amortised cost. They represent liabilities for goods and
services provided to the Club prior to the end of the
financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Club
becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of
the purchase of these goods and services.
(d) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net
realisable value. Costs are assigned to inventory on hand
and valued on an average cost basis.
(e) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are brought to account
at cost, less, where applicable, any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying
amount of property, plant and equipment is reviewed
annually by the Committee to ensure it is not in excess
of the recoverable amount from these assets. The
recoverable amount of the Club’s property is assessed by
reference to current depreciated replacement cost.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying
amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate,
only when it is probable that future economic benefits
associated with the item will flow to the Club and the
cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other
repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement
of comprehensive income during the financial period in
which they are incurred.
The gain or loss on disposal of all fixed assets is
determined as the difference between the carrying
amount of the asset at the time of disposal and the
proceeds of disposal, and is included in operating profit
before income tax.
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed,
and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet
date.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately
to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is
greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including
buildings, but excluding freehold land and paintings
and antiques (which have appreciated over time), is
depreciated over their useful lives on a straight-line basis
commencing from the time the asset is held ready for
use.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable
assets are:
Class of Asset
Depreciation Rate
Buildings
2%
Paintings & Antiques 0%
Plant & Equipment
10% - 33%
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (cont’d)
(f) Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost and
are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation
and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised
in profit or loss arising from derecognition of an
intangible asset is measured as the difference between
net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the
intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite
life intangibles are reviewed annually. Changes in the
expected pattern of consumption or useful life are
accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation
method or period.
Software
Significant costs associated with software are capitalised
and amortised on a straight-line basis over the period
of their expected benefit, being their finite life of 10
years.
(g) Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Club’s liability for employee
benefits arising from services rendered by employees at
balance date. Employee benefits expected to be settled
within one year have been measured at the amounts
expected to be paid plus related on-costs. Employee
benefits payable later than one year have been measured
at the present value of the expected future cash outflows
to be made for those benefits.
(h) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits.
Cash equivalents 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.
Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings
in current liabilities on the statement of financial
position.
(i) Revenue
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon
the delivery of goods to customers. Revenue from the
rendering of services is recognised on delivery of the
service to the customer.
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis
taking into account the interest rates applicable to the
financial asset.
Membership subscription revenue and Health Centre
membership revenue are recognised on a proportional
basis over the subscription period.
Property income is recognised on a straight line basis
over the life of the lease, taking into account annual
increases as well as any rent free period.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and
services tax (GST).
(j) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the
amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred
is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office.
In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of
the cost of acquisition of the asset or as a part of an item
of expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of
financial position are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows
on a gross basis, except for the GST component of
investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as
operating cash flows.
(k) Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date the Club reviews the carrying
values of its assets to determine whether there is any
indication that those assets have been impaired. If such
an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset,
being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to
sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying
value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its
recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of
comprehensive income.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable
amount of an individual asset, the Club estimates the
recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which
the asset belongs.
(l) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Club has a legal or
constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for
which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits
will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. (m) Leases
Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and
benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not
the legal ownership that are transferred to entities in the
economic entity are classified as finance leases.
Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and
a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair
value of the leased property or the present value of the
minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed
residual values. Lease payments are allocated between
the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest
expense for the period.
Finance leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line
basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely
that the economic entity will obtain ownership of the
asset or over the term of the lease.
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all
the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged
as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
Lease incentives granted to tenants under operating
leases are recognised and amortised on a straight-line
basis over the life of the lease term.

UMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (cont’d)
(n) Finance Costs
Finance costs relate to the loans obtained for the
expansion of the Club. Refer to Note 21 Financial
Instruments for further details.
Finance costs are recognised in the statement of
comprehensive income in the period in which they are
incurred.
(o) Financial Instruments
Recognition
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on
trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the
related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent
to initial recognition these instruments are measured as
set out below.
Financial Assets
Financial Assets include cash and cash equivalents and
trade receivables. Trade receivables are non-derivative
financial instruments that are not quoted in an active
market. They are stated at cost less provision for doubtful
debts.
Financial Liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at cost,
comprising original debt less principal payments.
by evaluating conditions specific to the Club that may
lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment
trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is
determined. Value-in-use calculations performed in
assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of
key estimates.
Key judgements - Provision for impairment of
receivables
The Club assesses impairment at each reporting date
by evaluating conditions specific to the Club that
may lead to impairment of receivables. The level of
provision is assessed by taking into account the recent
sales experience, the ageing of receivables, historical
collection rates and specific knowledge of the individual
debtors’ financial position.
(r) Segment Reporting
A business segment is a distinguishable component of the
Club that is engaged in providing products or services
that are subject to risks and returns that are different
to those of other business segments. A geographical
segment is a distinguishable component of the Club that
is engaged in providing products or services within a
particular economic environment and is subject to risks
and returns that are different than those of segments
operating in other economic environments.
Fair Value
The carrying value of financial assets and financial
liabilities approximates fair value. Refer to Note 21(c).
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Club assesses whether there
is objective evidence that a financial instrument has
been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial
instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the
instrument is considered to determine whether an
impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised
in the statement of comprehensive income.
(p) Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative
figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in
presentation for the current financial year.
(q) Critical Estimates and Judgements
The Committee evaluates estimates and judgements
incorporated into the financial report based on historical
knowledge and best available information. Estimates
assume a reasonable expectation to future events and
are based on current trends and economic data obtained
both externally and within the Club.

(a) Financial Risk Management
The Club’s financial instruments consist of deposits with banks, local money market instruments, loans from related
parties, and loans from external parties.
The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for Club operations.
The Club does not have any derivative instruments at 31 December 2014.
(i) Treasury Risk Management
A Finance Sub Committee consisting of the Treasurer, selected Committeemen, the Chief Executive Officer and Financial
Controller meet on a regular basis to analyse interest rate exposure and to evaluate treasury management strategies in the
context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts.The Committee’s overall risk management strategy seeks to
assist the association in meeting its financial targets, whilst minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance.
The Finance Sub Committee operates under policies approved by the senior committee members. Risk management
policies are approved and reviewed by the committee on a regular basis. These include the use of credit risk policies and
future cash flow requirements.
(i) Financial Risks
The main risks the Club is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is managed with a mixture of fixed and floating rate debt. At 31 December 2014 approximately 60% of
Club debt is fixed. For further information refer to Note 21b.
Foreign Currency Risk
The Club is not exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies.
Liquidity Risk
The Club manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows.
Credit Risk
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to
recognised financial assets, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the
statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. There are no material amounts of collateral held as security as at 31 December 2014.
Credit risk is managed and reviewed regularly by the Finance Committee. It arises from exposures to customers and
deposits with financial institutions.
The Finance Committee monitors credit risk by actively assessing the rating quality and liquidity of counter parties:
- only banks and financial institutions with an ‘A’ rating are utilised;
- all potential members are rated for credit worthiness taking into account their particular circumstance and financial
standing; and
- customers that do not meet the Club’s strict credit policies may only purchase in cash or using recognised credit cards.
At year end the Club does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables
under financial instruments entered into by the Club.
The Club is not exposed to any material commodity price risk.
The trade receivable balances at 31 December 2014 and 31 December 2013 do not include any counterparties with
external credit ratings. Customers are assessed for credit worthiness using the criteria detailed above.

are readily traded on organised markets in standardised form other than listed investments.

Sensitivity analysis
Interest rate risk
The Club has performed a sensitivity analysis relating to its exposure to interest rate risk at balance date. This sensitivity
analysis demonstrates the effect on current year results and equity which could result from a change in this risk.
As at 31 December 2014, the effect on profit and equity as a result of changes in the interest rate, with all other variables
remaining constant would be as follows:
Bank Loan
2014
2013
$$
- Increase in interest rate by 2%
112,301
142,744
- Decrease in interest rate by 2% (112,301) (142,744)
Change in equity
- Increase in interest rate by 2%
112,301 142,744 - Decrease in interest rate by 2% (112,301) (142,744)
This sensitivity analysis has been performed on the assumption that all other variables remain unchanged. No sensitivity analysis has been performed on foreign currency risk as the Club is not exposed to foreign currency
fluctuations.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial

not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Club’s internal control. An audit also includes
evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the
Committee of Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.

Professional and Ethical Standards Board.
