- Notes to the Financial Statements
The budgeted departmental financial statements for the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA) are presented in this section. Information from the budgeted financial statements, forms part of the financial statements that will appear in the GBRMPA's 2004-05 Annual Report, and is also required as input into the Whole of Government Accounts.
ANALYSIS OF BUDGETED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
An analysis of the GBRMPA's budgeted financial statements, as reflected in the GBRMPA's budgeted departmental financial statements for 2004-05, is provided below.
Budgeted Departmental Statement of Financial Performance
The GBRMPA is budgeting for a break even operating result for 2004-05. Total revenue in 2004-05 is estimated to be $38.6 million, an increase of $6.7 million from the 2003-04 estimated actual. The increase is primarily as a result of Grants from the Natural Heritage Trust for the following Budget Measures:
- Education about the new Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Zoning Plan ($2.2 million);
- Enforcement and Compliance activities for the new Zoning Plan ($2.9 million); and
- Reef Water Quality Protection Plan Monitoring and Reporting ($2.0 million);
Total expenses are estimated to be $38.6 million, an increase of $6.7 million from the 2003-04 estimated actual. The increase is primarily due to the cost impact of Budget Measures associated with the new Zoning Plan and Reef Water Quality Protection Plan Monitoring and Reporting.
Budgeted Departmental Statement of Financial Position
The GBRMPA's budgeted net asset position is expected to remain unchanged at $13.1 million.

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General notes on accrual budgeting framework
(a) Departmental Financial Statements and Notes of Administered Items
Under the Australian Government's accrual budgeting framework, and consistent with Australian Accounting Standards, transactions that agencies control (departmental transactions) are separately budgeted for and reported on from transactions over which agencies do not have control (administered transactions). This ensures that agencies are only held fully accountable for the transactions over which they have control.
- Departmental items are those assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in relation to an agency or authority that are controlled by the agency. Departmental expenses include employee and supplier expenses and other administrative costs, which are incurred by the agency in providing its goods and services.
- Administered items are revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities that are managed by an agency or authority on behalf of the Government according to set Government directions. Administered expenses include subsidies, grants and personal benefit payments and administered revenues include taxes, fees, fines and excises.
(b) Appropriations in the Accrual Budgeting Framework
Under the Australian Government's accrual budgeting framework, separate annual appropriations are provided for:
- departmental price of outputs appropriations: representing the Government's funding for outputs from agencies;
- departmental capital appropriations: for investments by the Government for either additional equity injections or loans in agencies;
- administered expense appropriations: for the estimated administered expenses relating to an existing outcome, a new outcome or a Specific Purpose Payment to the states; and
- administered capital appropriations: for increases in administered equity through funding non-expense administered payments.
Special appropriations fund the majority of payments from the Consolidated Revenue Fund (especially those that are entitlement driven or involve transfers to state governments).
(c) Administered investments in controlled entities
Each Commonwealth Department is required to show an administered investment in each Commonwealth Authority and Company (CAC) Act 1997 entity within their portfolio. These administered investments should be valued at the Commonwealth's ownership interest in the net assets of those CAC entities, fixed at a notional acquisition date of 30 June 1997.
(d) Asset Valuation
From 1 July 2002 Commonwealth agencies and authorities are required to use either the cost basis or the fair value basis to measure Property, Plant and Equipment. The shift from the deprival method of valuation to fair value should occur gradually over a three-year period. Fair value essentially reflects the current market value of an asset. See guidance from the Department of Finance and Administration on how to calculate fair value.
