RACING AUSTRALIA ANNUAL REPORT 2016

(q) Trade and other Receivables

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value

and subsequently measured at amortised cost using

the effective interest method, less any provision for

impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for

settlement within 30 days.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on

an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be

uncollectable are written off using the carrying amount

directly.

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost,

less any provision for impairment.

(r) Borrowings

Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair

value of the consideration received, net of transaction

costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised

cost using the effective interest method.

(s) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the consolidate

entity has a present (legal or constructive) obligation

as a result of a past event. It is probable that the

consolidated entity will be required to settle the

obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the

amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as

a provision is the best estimate of the consideration

required to value the present obligation at the reporting

date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties

surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money

is material, provisions are discounted using a current

pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in

the provision resulting from the passage of time is

recognised as a finance cost.
