1. The initial application of AASB 16 Leases is detailed in the Overview. The APSC adopted the modified retrospective approach and 2019 comparatives were not restated.
Budget variances commentary Statement of Comprehensive Income The following commentary provides high level narrative of major variances for the APSC between 2020 actuals and budget information published in the 2019-20 Portfolio Budget Statements. Expenses Employee benefits are $2,263,000 higher than budget due to higher employee levels and a reduction in the long-term bond rate leading to an increase in the value of employee leave provisions. Depreciation and amortisation is $1,351,000 higher than budget and Suppliers are $1,678,000 lower than budget as the 2019-20 budget did not include the estimated impact due to the adoption of AASB 16 Leases. The budget estimates were updated to reflect this standard in the subsequent budget rounds. Income Revenue from Government is $2,717,000 higher than budget as the APSC received funding for Australian Public Service Reform Implementation. Revenue from contracts with customers is $1,476,000 higher than budget due to a one-off contribution by another government entity. Gains Reversal of write-downs and impairment is $253,000 higher than budget due to a revaluation increment to Buildings in 2020 which reversed a previous impairment of Buildings in 2017. The remainder of the revaluation increment was recognised in other comprehensive income. |

The above statement should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes.
1. Right-of-use assets are included in both Buildings and Plant and equipment. The initial application of AASB 16 Leases is detailed in the Overview. The APSC adopted the modified retrospective approach and 2019 comparatives were not restated.
Budget Variances Commentary Statement of Financial Position Non-Financial Assets Buildings are $8,923,000 higher than budgetand Lease are 8,599,000 higher than budget as the 2019-20 budget did not include the estimated balances due to the adoption of AASB 16 Leases. The budget estimates were updated to reflect this standard in the subsequent budget rounds. Intangible are $1,088,000 lower than budget due to an impairment of software in 2019 that reduced the opening balance of intangibles, that was not reflected in the budget. Liabilities Unearned income is $1,744,000 lower than budget due to a reduction in forward bookings for training due to the impact of COVID-19. Suppliers are $1,009,000 lower than budget as the budget included operating lease rental payable which was derecognised due to adopting AASB 16 Leases. The budget estimates were updated to reflect this standard in the subsequent budget rounds. |

The above statement should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes.
Budget Variances Commentary Cash Flow Statement Operating cash received Appropriations are $6,736,000 higher than budget mainly as a result of Section 74 receipts transferred to OPA which are $5,000,000 higher than budget. Section 74 receipts that are above agreed working cash balance limits are deposited to the Official Public Account (OPA) and then redrawn as required. Additional appropriation funding was received for Australian Public Service Reform Implementation. Operating cash used Employees are$2,090,000 higher than budget due to higher employee levels than budget. Suppliers are $2,586,000 lower than budget and Principal payments of lease liabilities are $1,464,000 higher than budget as the adoption of AASB 16 Leases was not included in the budget. Lease payments are now disclosed as either Interest payments on lease liabilities in the operating activities or as Principal payments of lease liabilities in financing activities. The budget estimates were updated to reflect this change in the subsequent budget rounds. Investing cash used Purchase of property, plant and equipment is $1,434,000 higher than budget due to the payment for equipment that was accrued as at 30 June 2019 and an office refit that occurred during 2020. |

Accounting policy Administered cash transfers to and from the Official Public Account Revenue collected by the APSC for use by the Government rather than the APSC is administered revenue. Collections are transferred to the Official Public Account (OPA) maintained by the Department of Finance. Conversely, cash is drawn from the OPA to make payments under Parliamentary appropriation on behalf of Government. These transfers to and from the OPA are adjustments to the administered cash held by the APSC on behalf of the Government and reported as such in the schedule of administered cash flows and in the administered reconciliation schedule. |
