OPERATIONS

The principal activity of the Club is the operation of licensed premises, including the provision of sporting, social and entertainment activities for members of the Club. The income from those activities is directed towards the improvement and maintenance of the Club's facilities and the promotion of the social welfare of members including affiliated sub-clubs.

leisure facilities in order to remain relevant to our members and the local community.

The strategy for achieving these objectives is to remain financially viable by adopting prudent financial management, whilst incorporating best practice corporate governance standards.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

The financial report is for Hornsby RSL Club Ltd ("the Company/Club") as an individual entity for the year ended 31 December 2022 and was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 28 February 2023.

The Club is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Club is a not-for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under the Australian Accounting Standards.

The Club's registered office and business address is 4 High Street Hornsby NSW 2077.

1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation

The financial statements are a general-purpose financial report and have been prepared in accordance with the Corporation Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards- Simplified Disclosures made by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ("AASB").

This financial report is the first report prepared in accordance with the Simplified Disclosures. In prior years the financial report was prepared in accordance with the Reduced Disclosure Requirements. There was no significant impact on the recognition and measurement of the amounts in the financial report, with the main changes being in relation to disclosures.

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been

consistently applied unless otherwise stated. The financial statements, except for the cash flow information, have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. The amounts presented in the financial statements have been rounded to the nearest dollar.

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities, and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Directors considered the profitability, liquidity and solvency of the Club and have concluded that the use of the going concern assumption in the preparation of the financial report is appropriate.

Both the functional and presentation currency of the Club is Australian dollars($).

Accounting Policies

(a) Revenue - Revenue is recognised in the accounts from the sale of goods and services upon delivery of the goods and services. Revenue is measured based on the cash or cash equivalent consideration received, after deducting discounts.

The Club operates a member loyalty and rewards program whereby members accumulate points for dollars spent. The redemption of points for Club products and services is treated as revenue at the time of sale.

Interest revenue is recognised on an accruals basis in the period it is derived.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 26

(b) Goods & Service 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 expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.

Freehold land and buildings are shown at their fair value based on periodic valuations by an independent valuer, less subsequent depreciation for buildings and accumulated impairment. In periods when the freehold land and buildings are not subject to an independent valuation, the directors assess whether the carrying values for the land and buildings are materially different to the fair value.

Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

(c) Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at-call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

(d) Trade and Other Receivables - Trade and other receivables represent the principal amounts due at balance date less where applicable a provision for doubtful debts. These accounts are generally noninterest bearing on 30-day terms and are treated as current assets. A provision for doubtful debt is recognised when there is objective evidence that an account is impaired.

Due to the short-term nature of these receivables, the carrying value is assumed to equal the fair value.

(e) Inventories - Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value.

Due to the relatively short shelf life and quick turnover (less than 30 days) the Club does not recognise catering stock as inventory but rather expenses the cost at the time of purchase.

(f) Property, Plant and Equipment, and Depreciation - Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair values as indicated, less, where applicable, accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the revaluation reserve in members' equity. Revaluation decreases that offset previous increases of the same class of assets shall be recognised in other comprehensive income under the heading of revaluation gain/loss. All other decreases are charged to the statement of comprehensive income.

Any accumulated depreciation at the date of the revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is restated to the revalued amount of the asset.

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not more than the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed based on 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.

Depreciation The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset's useful life to the entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. The depreciable amount of buildings includes revaluations where applicable.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 27

Depreciation rates:

Buildings

Plant & Equipment

2.5% - 5%

7.5% - 25%

Poker machines 25%

(g) Intangible Assets - Gaming machine entitlements are initially recognised at their acquisition cost. Entitlements acquired or granted for no cost are not brought to account. Entitlements have an indefinite life and so their costs are not amortised. The carrying value is assessed annually for impairment.

(h) Financial Instruments - Financial instruments are accounted for in accordance with AASB 9: Financial Instruments - Measurement and Recognition.

Broadly, financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the Company commits itself to either purchase or sell the asset (ie trade date accounting is adopted).

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs except where the instrument is classified "at fair value through profit or loss" in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.

(i) Impairment of Assets - At each reporting date the Club 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 indication exists, then the recoverable amount of the asset is compared to the carrying value, and any excess in carrying value over the recoverable amount is expensed.

Where the future economic benefits of the asset are not primarily dependent upon the asset's ability to generate net cash inflows and when the entity would, if deprived of the asset, replace its remaining future economic benefits, value in use is determined as the depreciated replacement cost of an asset.

(j) Trade and Other Payables - Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services received by the company during the reporting period, which remain unpaid. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amounts normally paid within 30 days ofrecognition of the liability. Due to the short-term nature of these payables, the carrying value is assumed to equal the fair value.

(k) Employees’ Benefits - Provision has been made for long service leave and annual leave in accordance with statutory requirements, based on pro rata entitlement on the wage and salary levels, including salary on-costs, of employees at reporting date.

The long service leave provision applies only to those employees who have completed at least five years' service with the Club, which is based on experience of staff turnover. The amounts attributable to employees with at least ten years' service is shown as a current liability, and the balance is shown as a non-current liability.

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. Employee benefits that are payable later than one year have been calculated using a nominal value basis rather than the standards based present value of future cash flows method, however the result under each of these methods is not materially different.

Superannuation contributions are made to an employee superannuation fund and charged as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

(l) Leases -

(1) Club as Lessee - the Club applies a single recognition approach for all leases, except shortterm leases and low value assets. The Club recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use ("ROU") assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 28

ROU Assets

The Club recognises the assets at the commencement date of the lease. ROU assets are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation or impairment losses. ROU assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful life of the asset.

Lease Liabilities

At the commencement of the lease, the Club recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the lease term, including any purchase option available at the end of the term where it is reasonably certain to be exercised by the Club.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Club uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date unless the interest rate implicit in the lease can be determined. After commencement date, the lease liability is increased to reflect the interest accrued and reduced by the lease payments.

Short term leases and leases of low value assets.

Club applies the recognition exemption for leases with a term at commencement of less than 12 months and to leases of assets considered to be of low value. Such lease payments are recognised as an expense over the term of the lease.

(2) Club as Lessor - rental income from operating leases is recognised as revenue in the period it is earned.

(m) Income Tax - Income tax expense for the year comprises current income tax expense and deferred income tax expense. Current income tax expense charged to the profit and loss is tax payable on taxable income calculated using current tax rates as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities are therefore the amounts expected to be paid in the forthcoming financial year.

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in the deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability

balances during the year as well as where applicable unused tax losses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in the financial statements.

Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deferred tax assets can be utilised.

The Club is a non-profit entity and can apply the "principle of mutuality" whereby net income derived from members is exempt from income tax.

(n) Current versus Non-Current Classification - The Club presents assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position based on current/non-current classification.

An asset is current when it is: expected to be realised, sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle; held for the purpose of trading; expected to be realised within twelve months after reporting date; or cash or cash equivalent. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when it is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle; held primarily for trading; due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or there is no unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after reporting date. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

(o) Comparative Figures - Where required by Accounting Standards comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation for the current financial year. When an entity applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies items in its financial statements, a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period must be disclosed.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 29

(p) Significant Accounting Estimates, Judgements and Assumptions - The directors evaluate estimates, judgments and assumptions incorporated in the financial statements based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the company. The Directors review these key estimates, assumptions and judgements annually.

The key estimates used are:

(1) Useful lives of fixed assets are estimated to calculate depreciation rates.

(2) Future cash flows are estimated to calculate net present values for impairment calculations and for long-term liabilities.

(3) Member loyalty program liability for points redemption.

(4) Incremental borrowing rate used to capitalise certain leases liabilities.

(q) Changes in Accounting Policies, Disclosures, Standards and Interpretations - During the current year the company adopted all of the new and revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations applicable to its operations which became mandatory.

The new or amended Australian Accounting Standards that apply for the first time in this financial year do not have a significant impact on the disclosures in the Club's financial statements or the measurement of the Club's revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities.

The freehold land and buildings were independently valued by Global Valuation Services Pty Ltd on 31 August 2022 and the directors made the decision to use that valuation as the fair value of the Club's land and buildings as at 31 December 2022. The valuation model is based on fair value of the land plus depreciated replacement cost of the buildings. The critical assumptions adopted in determining the valuation were the location, zoning and use of the land and buildings, and comparative recent property sales in the area.

The directors have reviewed the key assumptions made by the independent valuers on the valuation date in 2022. They concluded that these assumptions remain materially unchanged and are satisfied that the carrying values do not exceed the recoverable amount of the land and buildings. The directors do not believe that there has been a material movement in the fair values since valuation date.

Independent Auditor's Report

To the Members of Hornsby RSL Club Limited

OPINION

We have audited the financial report of Hornsby RSL Club Limited (the company), which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2022, the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of Hornsby RSL Club Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 200 I, including:

(a) giving a true and fair view of the company's financial position as at 31 December 2022 and of its performance for the year then ended; and

(b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards - Simplified Disclosure and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

BASIS FOR OPINION

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110: Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of the company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

INFORMATION

OTHER THAN THE FINANCIAL REPORT AND

AUDITOR’S

REPORT THEREON Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor's Report Thereon The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the company's annual report for the year ended 31 December 2022 but does not include the financial report and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Hornsby RSL Club Annual Report 2022 44

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE DIRECTORS FOR THE FINANCIAL REPORT

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL REPORT

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with Australian

Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.

Hornsby RSL Club Annual Report 2022 45

Independent Auditor's Report

Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the company to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the company audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
