The Board of Trustees is of the view the School is a public benefit entity for financial reporting purposes. b) Basis of Preparation Financial reporting standards applied The Education Act 1989 requires the School, as a Crown entity, to prepare financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand, applying New Zealand Equivalentsto International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) as appropriate to public benefit entities that qualify for differential reporting. Differential Reporting The School qualifies for differential reporting exemptions because it is not publicly accountable as defined in the Framework for Differential Reporting (the Framework) and it is not large. Many of the reporting exemptions available under the Framework have been applied. Measurement base The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis unless otherwise noted in a specific accounting policy. Presentation currency These financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars. Specific accounting policies The accounting policies used in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. The policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented. c) Income Recognition Government grants Operational grants are recorded as income as received. Teachers' salaries grants are not received in cash by the school but are paid directly to teachers by the Ministry of Education (the Ministry). They are recorded as income in the salary period they relate to. Other grants are recorded as income as received unless there are un fulfilled conditions attaching to the grant, in which case the amount relating to the unfulfilled conditions is recognised as a liability and released to income as the conditions are fulfilled. Grants for the use of land and buildings are also not received in cash by the School as they equate to the deemed expense for using the land and buildings which are owned by the Crown. Use of land and building grants are recorded as income under Government Grants in the periodtheschool usesthe land and buildings. -7- 963 Te Ranga School Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2014 Donations Donations, gifts and bequests are recorded as income when their receipt is formally acknowledged bythe School. Interest income Interest income on cash and cash equivalents and investments is recorded as income in the period it is earned. d) Use of Land and Buildings Expense The property from which the School operates is owned by the Crown and managed by the Ministry on behalf of the Crown. The School's use of the land and buildings as occupant is based on a property occupancy document as gazetted by the Ministry. The expense is based on an assumed market rental yield on the value of land and buildings as used for rating purposes. This is a non-cash expense that is offset by the grant received from the Ministry. e) Operating Lease Payments Payments made underoperating leases are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. f) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank balances, deposits held at call with banks, and other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents represent fairvalue. g) Accounts Receivable Accounts Receivable' represents items that the School has issued invoices for, but has not received payment for at year end. They are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently recorded at the amount the School realistically expects to receive. A provision for impairment of Accounts Receivable is established where there is objective evidence the School will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the debt. h) Inventories Inventories are consumable items held for sale, for example stationery and school uniforms. They are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a first in, first out basis. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of activities less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The write down from cost to net realisable value is recorded as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period of the write down. i) Property, Plant & Equipment Land and buildings owned by the Crown are excluded from these financial statements. The Board's use of the land and buildings as 'occupant' is based ona property occupancy document. Improvements to buildings owned bythe Crown are recorded atcost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. -8- 964 Te Ranga School Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2014 Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost or, in the case of donated assets, fair value atthe date of receipt, lessaccumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Costor fair value as the case may be, includes those costs that relate directly to bringing the asset to the location where it will be used and making sure it is in the appropriate condition for its intended use. Property, plant and equipment acquired with individual values under $250 are not capitalised, they are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Ga;ns and losses on disposals (i.e. sold or given away) are determined by comparing the proceeds received with the carrying amounts (i.e. the book value). The gain or loss arising from the disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Depreciation Property, plant and equipment except for library resources are depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight line basis. Library resources are depreciated on a diminishing value basis. Depreciation of all assets is reported in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. The estimated useful lives of the assets are: Buildingsimprovements-Crown 20 years Furniture & Equipment 15 years Electronic Equipment 5 years Vehicles and Ground Equipment 10 years Office Furniture & Equipment 5 - 10 years Library Resources 12.5% Diminishing value Other Equipment 10 years j) Accounts Payable Accounts Payable' represents liabilities for goods and services provided to the School prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. Accounts Payable are recorded at the amountof cash required tosettlethose liabilities. Theamountsare unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. k) Employee Entitlements Salary Accruals Salary accruals mainly reflect annual leave owing to teachers and ancillary staff and are recognised in respect of employees' services to balance date and are measured atthe amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. There is a corresponding teacher's salariesgrant receivable from the Ministry to fundthe liability. Leave Accruals No provision is required to be recognised for sick leave for any teachers, irrespective of whether a school is above its teaching entitlement as in practice most teacher sick leave is grant funded by the Ministry. -9- 965 Te Ranga School Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2014 For non-teaching staff, the school is required to report a liability in dollar terms for the relevant leave types, where this information is readily available. Any liability is reported in the school's Current Accounts Payable note to the Financial Statements. 1) Provision for Cyclical Maintenance The property from which the School operates is owned by the Crown, and is vested in the Ministry. The Ministry has gazetted a property occupancy document that sets out the Board's property maintenance responsibilities. The Board is responsible for maintainingthe land, buildings and other facilities on the School site in a state of good order and repair. Cyclical maintenance, which involves paintingthe interior and exterior of the School, makes upthe most significant part of the Board's responsibilities outside day-to-day maintenance. The provision for cyclical maintenance represents the obligation the Board has to the Ministry and is based on the Board's ten year property plan (10YP). m) Financial Assets and Liabilities The School's financial assets comprise cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and investments. All of these financial assets, except for investments that are shares, are categorised as "loans and receivables" for accounting purposes in accordance with financial reporting standards. Investments that are shares are categorised as "available for sale" for accounting purposes in accordance with financial reporting standards. The School's financial liabilities comprise accounts payable, funds held on behalf of the Ministryof Education, and painting contract liability. All of these financial liabilities are categorised as "financial liabilities measured at amortised cost" for accounting purposes in accordance with financial reporting standards. n) Borrowings Borrowings are recognised at the amount borrowed. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the School has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 monthsafterthe balancedate. o) Goods and Services Tax (GST) The financial statements have been prepared on a GST exclusive basis, with the exception of accounts receivableand accounts payable which arestated as GST inclusive. p) Budget Figures The budget figures are extracted from the School budget that was approved by the Board of Trustees. -10- 966 Te Ranga School Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2014 2014 2014 2013 Actual Budget Actual 1 Government Grants Operational Grants 176,045 90,633 170,249 Teacher Salaries Grant 440,143 368,444 428,324 Other Government Grants Use of Land & Buildings Grant 7,525 58,703 7,896 123,760 125,000 124,815 747,473 642,780 731,284 2 Locally Raised Funds INCOME Trading 10,685 6,400 8,889 Fundraising 77,972 84,000 43,196 Activities 15,901 1,500 10,937 107,323 91,900 64,286 11,307 4,000 9,150 591 500 1,178 Activities 18,838 1,968 12,060 Total Expenses 30,736 6,468 22,388 Net Surplus 76,587 85,432 45,328 Bus Group Partnership 2,765 Total Income EXPENSES Trading Fundraising 3 Investment Income Interest Received 1,022 1,264 1,022 1,264 4 Learning Resources Curricular Library Staff Salaries Staff Expenses 14,698 38,300 18,818 846 1,000 584 472,387 402,500 493,931 5,716 7,000 4,202 493,647 448,800 517,534 -11- 4 967 Te Ranga School Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2014 2014 2014 2013 Actual Budget Actual 5 Administration Audit Fees 4,100 4,485 4,100 BOT Fees & Expenses 9,263 4,500 3,907 Communications 3,684 2,200 3,447 General Admin Expenses 27,759 26,000 26,129 Staff Salaries 23,913 24,000 22,270 68,719 61,185 59,853 Caretaking & Cleaning 4,999 27,000 3,924 Grounds 1,903 1,750 1,911 123,760 125,000 124,815 10,421 11,100 7,097 4,266 1,000 (5,058) 22,723 6 Property Use of Land & Buildings Energy Cyclical Maintenance Repairs & Maintenance 18,112 17,500 Minor Capital Works (3,154) 20,000 Staff Salaries 39,654 199,961 3,845 27,177 203,350 186,434 The use of land and buildings figure represents 8% of the school's total property value.

Following consultation, certain changes to the revaluation methodology were adopted as part of the 30 June 2012 revaluation exercise. These changes improved the previous revaluation methodology, and have resulted in an improvement to the quality of the calculations. The improvements will be carried forward into future revaluations (next one timed for 30 June 2013). 7 Depreciation Building 9,982 8,000 Furniture & Equipment 9,650 7,900 9,802 17,599 10,400 12,948 Information & Communication Technology 9,990 Library Books 1,122 800 1,038 Motor Vehicles 2,993 2,900 3,660 41,346 30,000 37,438 ASB - 00 Board Admin Account 3,512 48,500 3,741 ASB - 01 Board Admin Account 6,079 6,100 8 Cash and Cash Equivalents ASB - 50 Board Bus Saver Account 38 ASB - 51 Board Bus Saver Account 68 620 1,554 200 ASB- RD8 Cheque Account (00) 3,560 ASB - RD8 Savings Account (50) 71 ASB - 00 Debit Card Account (340) Petty Cash - 12- 156 100 97 9,513 54,900 9,644 968 Te Ranga School Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2014 2014 2014 2013 Actual Budget Actual 9 Accounts Receivable Debtors Teacher Salaries Grant 42,979 43,000 41,018 42,979 43,000 41,018 10 Remuneration Board of Trustees Remuneration The total value of remuneration paid or payable to the Board and Committee members for the year ended 31 December 2014 was as follows: Board Members 2014 2014 2013 Actual Budget Actual 9,263 4,500 3,906 9,263 4,500 3,906 Principal Remuneration The total value of remuneration paid or payable to the Principal is in the following bands: Principal's Remuneration Benefits and other emoluments 2014 2013 Actual Actual $000 $000 100-110 100-110 2-3 2-3 Other employees No other employee received total remuneration over $100,000 (2013:nil) The disclosure for'otheremployees' does not include remuneration of the principal. 11 Related Party Transactions The School is an entity controlled by the Crown, and the Crown provides a major source of revenue to the school.

The Auditor-General has appointed me, Richard Dey, using the staff and resources of Ingham Mora, to carry out the audit of the financial statements of the School on her behalf. We have audited the financial statements of the School on pages 4 to 16 that comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity for the year ended on that date, and the notes to the financial statements thal indude accounting policies and other explanatory information. Opinion In our opinion the financial statements of the School on pages 4 to 16: 0 comply with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand; and , fairly reflect the Schools: financial position as at 31 December 2014; and 0 financial performance for the year ended on that date. Failure to meet statutory reporting deadline Without modifying our opinion, we draw attention to the fact that the Board of Trustees did not comply with section 87C(1) of the Education Act 1989, which requires the Board to provide its audited financial statements to the Ministry of Education by 31 May 2015. Our audit was completed on 9 June 2015. This is the date at which our opinion is expressed. The basis of our opinion is explained below. In addition, we outline the responsibilities of the Board of Trustees and our responsibilities, and we explain our independence. Basis of opinion We carried out our audit in accordance with the Auditor-Generals Auditing Standards, which incorporate the International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and carry out our audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. Material misstatements are differences or omissions of amounts and disclosures thal, in our judgement, are likely to inOuence readers overall understanding of the financial statements. I f we had found material misstatements that were not corrected, we would have referred to them in our opinion. An audit involves carrying out procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including our assessment of risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Schools preparation of financial statements that fairly reflect the matters to which they relate. We consider internal control in order to design audit procedures thal are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Schools internal control. 974 [ INGHAM MORA CILUTiKED # .C.0.'...' An audit also involves evaluating: ' the appropriateness of accounting policies used and whether they have been consistently applied; the reasonableness of the significant accounting estimates and judgements made by the Board of Trustees; 0 the adequacy of all disclosures in the financial statements; and 0 the overall presentation of the financial statements. We did not examine every transaction, nor do we guarantee complete accuracy of the financial statements. Also we did not evaluate the security and controls over the electronic publication of the financial statements, During our audit we assessed the risk of material misstatement arising from the Novopay payroll system that was Introduced by the Ministry of Education in August 2012. Our assessment of risk acknowledges that the financial statements may contain errors arising from the Novopay payroll system, but that the cumulative effect of the errors is unlikely to influence readers overall understanding of the financial statements.
