2 Results for announcement to the market
2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5 2.6
3 Net Tangible Assets
4 Controlled Entities
5 Dividend payments
6 Dividend Reinvestment Plans
7 Associates
8 Accounting Standards
9 Audit
  Denotes paragraphs resulting in a new element


2.1 The amount and percentage change up or down from the previous corresponding period of revenue from ordinary activities.
  • The amount and percentage change up or down from the previous corresponding period of profit (loss) from ordinary activities after tax attributable to members.
  • Comments This indicates a new Parent element called <Results for announcement to the market> to be created in a new Extended Link for specific ASX Disclosures.

    Two child elements are needed for the amount of the change and the percent of the change. The direction of the change can be signalled by the sign (+/-) of the amount. There are two existing IFRS elements for Revenue from Ordinary Activities - <RevenueTotalByFunction> and <RevenueTotalByNature$gt;. No matter which Income Statement format is used, these two amounts will be the same.

    Rather than require a decision as to which element to choose, a new element <RevenueTotalFromOPerations> could be created and an essence-alias link created to indicate they are the same concept with a different element name. As a sibling of one or both of these elements in a new extendedLink for ASX Disclosures, an element can be added for PerCentChangeInRevenueFromOperations. The percentage will need to be a decimal element where percentages are expressed in decimal terms – 7% would need to be entered as 0.07 – because the IFRS percentType is restricted to values between +100% and -100%. There is no guarantee that the percentage here would fall between those limits. The IFRS percentType was designed for use for percentage of ownership.

    We should add “FromPreviousCorrespondingPeriod” to clearly indicate the nature of the change required.

    IFRS Element There is no “section” in the IFRS taxonomy or the developing AIFRS extension taxonomy. A new extendedLink for ASX Disclosures will need to be created. The disclosure needs to be made for Appendix 4E and so both appendices can use the same new section.

    Decision ???
    [TP]we don't need to create a third representation of Revenue from Operations as this is not required to be disclosed in the App. The revenue will be disclosed in the instance somewhere - either "byFunction" or "byNature" - but we don't have to point to it, we just need to include the change. I recommend we just add 2 child elements to "Results for Announcement to the Market" for amount/pct change in "revenue from ordinary activities".

    2.2 The amount and percentage change up or down from the previous corresponding period of profit (loss) from ordinary activities after tax attributable to members.
    Comments ASX advised this is to be changed to Profit (loss) before tax from operations attributable to members.

    Two child elements are needed for the amount of the change and the percent of the change. The direction of the change can be signalled by the sign (+/-) of the amount. There is an existing IFRS element for Profit (Loss) Before Tax - <ProfitLossBeforeTax>, however email discussions with ASX indicate that there is not an equivalent element in IFRS so a new one will need to be created.

    As a sibling of this element in a new extendedLink for ASX Disclosures, an element can be added for <PerCentChangeInProfitLossBeforeTax>. The percentage will need to be a decimal element where percentages are expressed in decimal terms – 7% would need to be entered as 0.07 – because the IFRS percentType is restricted to values between +100% and -100%. There is no guarantee that the percentage here would fall between those limits. The IFRS percentType was designed for use for percentage of ownership.

    Decision Kerry Clark (E&Y) suggested that "Profit(Loss) before tax attributable to ordinary members" was not normally calculated under IFRS. ASX advise that the difference will stay; at least until they complete a review of whether to just replicate AIFRS requirements in the Apps and indeed whether to keep the Apps at all. The results of that review will not be effective until end of 2007.

    The last time ASXdid a consultation on the data in the Apps there was no move to delete this special, non-AASB disclosure. Analysts seem to find it useful.

    Thus, Option 3 is the prefered course of action.

    2.3 The amount and percentage change up or down from the previous corresponding period of net profit (loss) for the period attributable to members.
    Comments Two child elements are needed for the amount of the change and the percent of the change. The direction of the change can be signalled by the sign (+/-) of the amount. There is an existing IFRS element for Profit (Loss) Attributable to Members - <ProfitLossAttributableToEquityHoldersOfParent>, however email discussions with ASX indicate that there is not an equivalent element in IFRS so a new one will need to be created.

    As a sibling of this element in a new extendedLink for ASX Disclosures, an element can be added for <PerCentChangeInProfitLossAttributableToEquityHoldersOfParent>.

    2.4 The amount per security and franked amount per security of final and interim dividends or a statement that it is not proposed to pay dividends.
    Comments The amount and franked amount per security are covered by AASB101 Aus 126.4. The statement would be a new element to be created in the ASX Extended Link.

    To be able to use the IFRS section below, it will be necessary to copy these relationships into the new extended link being created so that the user only needs to “import” the ASX extendedLink rather the entire Explanatory Disclosures extendedLink into the contained schema that would be used for submitting this form.

    The same would need to be done for Preference Shares and Dividends Declared after Balance Sheet Date.

    2.5 The record date for determining entitlements to the dividends (if any).
    Comments The IFRS Taxonomy has an element for this for Dividends declared but not Paid. ASX have advised that we do not need a new element for this for Dividends Paid as the date of record is known for those and is not required to be disclosed. The ASX assumes this is for unpaid dividends only.

    Details of entities over which control has been gained or lost during the period, including the following.
    
    	4.1	Name of the entity.
    	4.2	The date of the gain or loss of control.
    	4.3	Where material to an understanding of the report – the contribution of such entities to the 
    		reporting entity’s profit from ordinary activities during the period and the profit or loss 
    		of such entities during the whole of the previous corresponding period.
    Comments The tuples created for details of Subsidiaries, Associates and JV's (see example below) do not cater for those entities over which control has been lost during the period. Thus, a new tuple is required to handle these. The existing tuple does not contain the date control was gained for those acquired, so this would need to be added in any case. It is also not clear as to whether the contribution to the reporting entity's P&L is in aggregate or for each associate.
    The simplest solution seems to be to add new tuples for Entities Over Which Control Gained and Lost.

    Comments As can be seen from the screen shot below, the existing tuple for Investment in Associate does not contain an element for the venturer’s (investor’s) share of profit. This will need to be added.

    The same applies to JVs but AIFRS breaks these down into Jointly Controlled Entities and Jointly Controlled Assets or Operations. Again, the tuples for these do not contain the element for profit contribution. AIFRS only requires an aggregate contribution to profit.

    The Option to include the tuple relationship in the ASX extendedLink is for when modularisation takes place later in the project.

    Comments Refer discussion at AASB101 Aus 13.2.

    Relationships only needed for future modularisation

    Decision Refer discussion at AASB101 Aus 13.2.


    9 For all entities, if the accounts are subject to audit dispute or qualification, a description of the dispute or qualification.
    Comments Although the Audit Report is out of scope for this project, the above indicates that some consideration of it is given. At the Melbourne Taxonomy Workshop on 11 May 2006, the group decided that some key elements could and should be included. They should be in a separate extended link that will act as a placeholder for more detailed disclosures that may be required in future.

    In addition to the text of the audit report (which is supposed to be attached/included), there is a specific requirement to describe the dispute or qualification. An element needs to be added for that. Once the physical copies hit the ASX they may get separated and the same may happen with the electronic stuff, so there should be elements to provide the nature of the dispute or qualification. It can be a tuple that will allow for more the one dispute/qualification or it can simply be a single text element to contain all of the disputes/qualifications.
