EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM The following notes are explanatory of the more important matters relating to- the preparation of the balance-sheets and revenue accounts included in B-l [Pt. IV], 1950, which are prepared on an income and expenditure basis and present a more comprehensive statement of the financial operations of Departments and services than is possible in the cash statements included in paper B-l [Pt. I]. (i) Authority.—Section 57 of the Finance Act, 1932, requires the preparation of these accounts and their presentation to Parliament. (ii) Capital — (a) General: The amounts under this heading in the accounts usually represents the value of fixed assets at the conclusion of the financial year, and the amounts are divided to show loan capital separate from that provided from revenue or other source. (b) Public Works Loans : Loans for the Public Works Account are shown as Public Works Fund capital in the appropriate accounts recording the expenditure. Redemptions of those loans are allocated by the Treasury to the accounts whose expenditure is represented by the least productive assets. (iii) Depreciation. —Treasury Instruction No. 79 specifies various rates of depreciation based on an estimated average life for different classes of assets. The rates are computed usually on the original capital cost. If the nature of a Department's depreciating assets calls for special rates, these are approved as required. (iv) Charges Not Subject to Specific Appropriation. —In pursuance of the general authority quoted in (i) above, certain charges such as administration, exchange .of properties, assessed rental values, interest on capital, and depreciation allowances, &c., are made between Government accounts through the Treasury Adjustment Account without cash payments or specific appropriation by Parliament. (v) Interest. —In the accounts an average rate, at present 3| per centum per annum, is charged for all accounts with the exception of Housing Account. (vi) Rentals.—Some Departments occupying private premises actually pay rentals. Others occupying Government buildings are assessed annually with rental based on the average rate or interest, the cost or valuation of the property, and the class of building. (vii) Treasury Adjustment Account. —This is the equivalent of a " Head Office Account "in branch accounting, and through it are passed, inter-departmental transfers and the total of cash transactions for the year. Separate accounts (see (vi) ) having their own cash balances do not utilize a Treasury Adjustment Account. (viii) Values. When the provision of accounts and balance-sheets on a commercial basis by all Departments was first instituted about 1922 it was necessary to bring numerous properties and assets into account by means of a fair valuation. New assets since then, or additions, are usually recorded at actual cost, with any depreciation provision shown either as a deduction or separately.

Notes.—(1) Land and indigenous forests other than areas purchased have been valued as follows : Prairie value, ss. per acre ; protection, £1 per acre ; merchantable forests, £lO per acre ; accretions during jear have been brought into the accounts at the prairie value of ss. per acre. Pending completion of the National Forest Survey, no debit has been made in the accounts and no reduction has been made in the asset " Indigenous standing forests " in respect of the value of timber or timber rights disposed of. (2) Up to 31st March, 1940, the cost of establishment of exotic forests included compound interest on the net expenditure from year to year. (3) The liability for advances from Consolidated Fund is fixed by section 21 of the Finance Act, 1926, and section 3 of the Finance Act, 1927, at £104,250. Of this amount, £87,405 only is shown as a liability, the balance of £16,845 representing the expenditure on sand-dune reclamation which was transferred, without statutory authority, to the Crown Lands Account. (4) Profit and Loss Accounts have been produced only in respect of the operation of mills. (5) Apart from central administration expenses, £191,543 (1947-48) and £144,309 (1948-49), which have not been charged to the forestry operations, all expenditure except on operation of mills has been treated as an accretion of development costs. (6) All proceeds from sales of timber plus the profit on mills have been deducted from development expenses. A. R. Entrican, Director. R. J. Wells, Chief Accountant.

Note.—(a) Profits or losses from farming operations on blocks under development are included in the Revenue Account only when the final position is ascertained on realization of the block ; (b) interest on expenditure on blocks under development has been credited to Revenue Account only to the extent that trading results have enabled it to be met. The balance has been credited to the Balance-sheet item " Accrued interest on capital on blocks being developed, £707,334 " ; (c) that portion of the loss in the Revenue Account relating to the settlement of ex-servicemen is recoverable on the disposal of the farming properties to ex-servicemen from the reserve for losses created from the Consolidated Fund for the purpose and appearing in the balancesheet above. D. M. Greig, Director- General of Lands. Y. J. H. Pledger, A.R.A.N.Z., Chief Accountant.

The following comments are appended : (1) The account does not bear a charge for expenses incurred by the Departments administering the scheme, other than a reduced charge for the supervision of the erection of cottages and milking-sheds ; (2) it is unlikely that the realizable value of certain properties is equal to the development expenditure thereon.— J.
