City Rail Link Limited Notes to the Forecast Financial Statements For the year ending 30 June 2019
Reporting Entity CRLL is a limited liability company incorporated under the Companies Act 1993. CRLL is a majority Crown-owned entity, listed under Schedule 4A of the Public Finance Act 1989 and subject to the Crown Entities Act 2004, the Official Information Act 1982 and the Ombudsmen Act 1975. Its shareholders are the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Transport and Auckland Council. The purpose of CRLL is to manage the delivery and completion of the CRL project in accordance with the PDA.
Basis of Preparation These prospective financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of providing information on CRLL’s future operating intentions and financial position, against which it must report and be formally audited at the end of the financial year. These prospective financial statements have been prepared: • in accordance with the Public Finance Act 1989 and the Crown Entities Act 2004, which include the requirement to comply with New Zealand generally accepted accounting practice (NZGAAP) • in accordance with PBE FRS42 and NZGAAP as it relates to prospective financial statements • on a historical cost basis modified by the revaluation of certain assets and liabilities • in New Zealand dollars rounded to the nearest one thousand, unless separately identified.
Statement of Significant Underlying Assumptions Funding from the Sponsors
Funding from the Sponsors is based on the expenditure programme for the project, assuming sufficient funding is available for the project. Funding requirement is assessed monthly and the funding application to the Sponsors and approval by the Sponsors is done before the beginning of every quarter. For successful funding applications, the funds are received at the beginning of the new quarter.
Personnel costs The forecast costs assume the current organisational structure will be in place throughout the period. A proportion of personnel cost which is directly attributable to the project is capitalised and recognised as Work in Progress in the Statement of Forecast Financial Position. Capital CRLL is undertaking a programme of capital spending aimed at delivering the CRL project. Projected costs and timing of expenditure are based on plans and quotations that were current when these forecasts were prepared. Opening equity Estimated opening equity assumes 2017/18 total comprehensive revenue and expense of $4.4 million. This impacts on estimated amounts of cash in hand and net assets.

Significant Accounting Policies The following accounting policies significantly affect the measurement of financial performance and position.
Revenue Project Funding Project costs, which are capital in nature, create an asset for CRLL as well as operating costs for its day to day running and management and are funded by a share issue to the Crown and Auckland Council. This funding is not recognised as revenue in the forecast financial statements.
Rental Revenue Other revenue generated by CRLL is from rental income from properties required to be purchased to enable the build but not yet decommissioned and will be recorded as revenue.
Interest Income Interest revenue is recognised by accruing on a time proportion basis the interest due for the surplus cash balances.
Foreign Currency Transactions Foreign currency transactions are translated into NZ$ (the functional currency) using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are recognised in the surplus or deficit.
Goods and Service Tax Items in the financial statements are presented exclusive of GST, except for receivables and payables, which are presented on a GST inclusive basis. Where GST is not recoverable as input tax, it is recognised as part of the related asset or expense. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the IRD is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. The net GST paid to, or received from, the IRD, including the GST relating to investing and financing activities, is classified as a net operating cash flow in the statement of cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed exclusive of GST.
Income Tax CRLL is exempt from the payment of income tax. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income tax.

Property, Plant & Equipment Property, plant and equipment consists of four asset classes which are measured as follows: • Land and buildings, at cost • Leasehold improvements, at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses • Furniture and office equipment, at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Additions The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment will be recognised as an asset only once the contracted works are completed and costs have been fully recognised. This includes items such as property purchases and other assets which are not part of the construction works. Work in progress is recognised at cost less impairment and is not depreciated.
Depreciation Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis on all property, plant and equipment other than land, at rates that will write off the cost (or valuation) of the assets to their estimated residual values over their useful lives. The useful lives and associated depreciation rates of major classes of property, plant and equipment are estimated as follows: Leasehold improvements Furniture and equipment
10 years 5 years
10% 20%
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated remaining useful lives of the improvements, whichever is the shorter.
Share Capital and Equity All shares issued are fully paid and have a face value of $1 each. The Shareholder’s investment in CRLL is made up of 622,281,608 shares as at 1 July 2018 and is expected to be 784,281,605 shares as at 30 June 2019.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions In preparing these prospective financial statements, CRLL has made estimates and assumptions concerning the future. These estimates and assumptions may differ from the subsequent actual results. Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimates and assumptions that have significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities within the forecast financial statements are as follows:
• Revenue and expenditure forecast uncertainty, with regards to timing and amount of future transactions related to properties held for future project works.
