INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
CALIBURN PARTNERSHIP PTY LIMITED
CALIBURN PARTNERSHIP PTY LIMITED
Scope
The financial report and directors’ responsibility
The financial report comprises the income statement, balance sheet, statement of changes in equity, cash flow statement, accompanying notes to the financial statements (1 to 23), and the directors’ declaration of Caliburn Partnership Pty Limited (the company) for the year ended 30 June 2007.
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and true and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001. This includes responsibility for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and internal controls that are designed to prevent and detect fraud and error, and for the accounting policies and accounting estimates inherent in the financial report.
Audit Approach
We conducted an independent audit in order to express an opinion to the members of the company. Our audit was conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, in order to provide reasonable assurance as to whether the financial report is free of material misstatement.
The nature of an audit is influenced by factors such as the use of professional judgment, selective testing, the inherent limitations of internal control, and the availability of persuasive rather than conclusive evidence. Therefore, an audit cannot guarantee that all material misstatements have been detected.
We performed procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including compliance with Accounting Standards and other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia, a view which is consistent with our understanding of the company’s financial position, and of their performance as represented by the results of their operations and cash flows.
We formed our audit opinion on the basis of these procedures, which included:
— | examining, on a test basis, information to provide evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial report; and | |
— | assessing the appropriateness of the accounting policies and disclosures used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors. |
While we considered the effectiveness of management’s internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our audit was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we followed applicable independence requirements of Australian professional ethical pronouncements and the Corporations Act 2001.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2007
(PRESENTED IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS)
(PRESENTED IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS)
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, including Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
The financial report covers Caliburn Partnership Pty Limited which is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
The financial report of Caliburn Partnership Pty Limited complies with all International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in their entirety.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the company in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of Preparation
The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all years presented.
Reporting Basis and Conventions
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.
Accounting Policies
a. | Income Tax | |
The change for current income tax expenses is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. | ||
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. | ||
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity. | ||
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. | ||
The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the economic entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law. |

(PRESENTED IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS)
(PRESENTED IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS)
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
b. | Property, Plant and Equipment | |
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. | ||
Plant and equipment | ||
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and impairment losses. | ||
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets’ employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. | ||
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. | ||
Depreciation | ||
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight line basis over their useful lives to the economic entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. | ||
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: |
Class of Fixed Asset | Depreciation Rate | |
Plant and equipment | 7.5 – 66.6% |
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. | ||
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. | ||
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains or losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. | ||
c. | Financial Instruments | |
Recognition | ||
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below. | ||
Loans and receivables | ||
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. | ||
Financial liabilities | ||
Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation. |

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
d. | Impairment of Assets | |
At each reporting date, the company reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement. | ||
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. | ||
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. | ||
e. | Leases | |
Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership that are transferred to entities in the economic entity are classified as finance leases. | ||
Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term. | ||
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. | ||
Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term. | ||
f. | Revenue | |
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. | ||
Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers. | ||
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). | ||
g. | Goods and Services Tax (GST) | |
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST. | ||
Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. | ||
h. | Employee Benefits | |
Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. | ||
i. | Provisions | |
Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. |

a. | Financial Risk Management | |
The Company’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise funds for the company’s operations. |
i. Financial Risks
The main risks the company is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
Interest rate risk
The Company has limited interest rate risk as there is currently no interest bearing loans.
Liquidity risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows.
Credit risk
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognised financial assets, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements. The company does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or company of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the company.
b. | Financial Instruments |
ii. Interest rate risk
The company’s exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on classes of financial assets and financial liabilities, is as follows:

Explanatory note to the reconciliation
(a) | Under AIFRS deferred tax balances are classified as non current assets. US GAAP requires the deferred tax asset to be classified between current and non current assets by determining the nature of the items that comprise the asset. The components of the deferred tax asset have been assessed on this basis with an adjustment of $1,723,535 being made to current deferred tax assets. | ||
(b) | Long term deferred compensation balances were fully expensed under AIFRS. The deferred compensation represents an entitlement that has a requisite period of six years. Under US GAAP the deferred compensation has been adjusted to the extent that the amounts expensed at 30 June 2007 are reflective of the vesting period. The following adjustments were relevant: |
(i) | $4,248,868 represents the deferred compensation assets balance as at 30 June 2007. This balance is the net of adjustments relating to opening balances (periods prior to 1 July 2006) and amounts being expensed to the statement of income for the current period. | ||
(ii) | $2,028,868 represents the portion of deferred compensation that was adjusted under b(i) that is required to be released under US GAAP during the period 1 July 2006 to 30 June 2007. Under US GAAP this amount is released from the deferred compensation asset to employee benefits expense. | ||
(iii) | $608,660 represents the adjustment to income tax expense as a result of the adjustment to the employee benefits expense. | ||
(iv) | $1,274,660 represents the adjustment to deferred tax assets as a result of the recognition of deferred compensation assets. |
