It is located in Australia, and it s main business is selling of products and services. Basis of Preparation a) Compliance Statement The financial statements i.e. statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity, have all been prepared in accordance to Australian Accounting standards (Financial Accounting 2). b) Measurement Basis The financial statements: statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity have all been prepared using information based on historical costs. However, when preparing the statement of financial position, inventory and property is measured at fair value. c) Presentation of currency All the financial statements have been prepared using Australian dollars, since that is in accordance to Australian Accounting Standards (Financial Accounting 2). d) Judgments and estimates The aim of management when preparing financial statements is to conform to the Australian Accounting Standards, and in the process they are required to make assumptions that may differ from the actual results, for example estimates of liabilities, expenses, assets and income. Important accounting policies a) Property and equipment During preparation, all the property and equipment are measured at their cost, which is the total expense incurred during acquisition, less the impairment losses and depreciation. The gains on disposal and the losses on disposal of assets is determined by getting the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and the proceeds obtained from disposal. Depreciation is determined by getting the difference between an assets cost and its residual value. b) Inventories The inventories in the financial statements are given as the lower of their net realizable value and their cost. Cost of inventories includes all expenses incurred in bringing them to their present condition, while the net realizable value is the value at which the inventories are estimated to be sold. 1.

Transfers to Reserve During the financial year ending 30th June 2012, the directors moved a sum of $3,200,000 from retained earnings to general reserve. This can be attributed to high profits that the company has realized over the years. Dividends The board of directors has approved a dividend of 15p per share, to all shareholders in the register under the year in consideration. This is in addition to the interim dividend of 7p that the company had announced earlier. Annual auditor’s report The financial reports have been audited and they received unqualified opinion. That is to mean that the auditors did not find any material error of omission or commission in preparation of the financial statements. This shows the management commitment to maintain strong internal controls so as to safeguard the assets of the company and to ensure that operations are running on smoothly.
