Appendix 2: Leased Assets
        As a result of NZ IFRS 16, effective 1 January 2019, the following sheets were impacted:

             •   XPA 11 enhanced to identify which assets are Leased Assets

             •   Specific Policy (2n-Policy) – New Leased Assets policy

             •   Significant Judgements and Estimated Uncertainty Policy (2n-Policy) – Provision for Leases

             •   Property, Plant and Equipment Note (2n-FixedAssets): ROU added

             •   Leases note (2n-Leases) - new note

             •   Lease and Hire purchase Note (2n-hirePurchase) – amended titles if no hire purchase

             •   NZIFRS Finance and Income Note (2n-NZIFRSFinanceIncandExp)– no change required

             •   Balance Sheets – amended for titles, stop print Operating lease note

             •   Impact of Change in Policy Note (2n-ImpactChangPol) – new reconciliation for balance sheet
                 items

             •   Leased Assets Depreciation Schedule – new schedule

        The new Leases note relies on assets being integrated with the ledger. Where assets are non-integrated,
        FRFs can be used to enter descriptions and values.

        Impairment of Right-of-Use-Assets (NZ IFRS)

        Currently XPA does not allow for the impairment of individual assets. To impair a group of assets, the
        coding structure is 879/Asset group code.

        With this level of coding, there is no distinction between impairment for Right-of-Use Assets and Owned
        Assets.

        Impact: 2n-Leases, 2n-FixedAssets:

  Adding Right-of-Use Assets to the Integrated Asset Ledger
        Note: Right-of-Use Assets being added to the Asset Ledger for 1/1/2019 NZ IFRS 16 standard change,
        must be added as Opening Balances via Asset Opening Balances . Do NOT enter values into the tax /
        book tab until the Opening Balance has been entered with the following procedure. Future new ROU
        assets can be entered following the normal add process.

        1.   Open the Asset Ledger.

        2.   Create the new Right-of-Use Asset
                 a. Complete the fields in the Description tab
                 b. Select the Leased Asset check box
                 c. Press Enter or select Save .
                 d. Close out of the Asset Ledger

Release Notes | APS NZ Xcede Sheets and Templates - April 2020 | Page 27 of 52
3.   Open the Asset Opening Balances.

        4.   Enter the Asset Value into the Opening Value field and select Save and Yes to any message prompts.

        5.   Open the Asset Ledger and complete asset tabs

        6.   An Opening Balance adjustment (Chart| Opening Balance Journal), will need to be completed for
             the contra entry which will be sitting against the Asset Suspense account.

        7.   Review depreciation schedules in XPA to ensure values have been recorded correctly. To see
             individual assets set to “Leased Asset”:
                 a. Run the Balance Sheet with notes. The new Leases note can print individual leased assets
                     (< N-LeaRUT> = Yes).
                 b. Add 2DepnNZLeased-P to the jobstream.

New Specific Policy: Leased Assets
        A new Leased Assets policy with default text has been designed. Every default paragraph has the option
        to be customised or stop printed.

        The following leases policies are available:

             •   Financial Leases – Special Purpose (or not NZ IFRS)

             •   Operating Leases – Special Purpose (or not NZ IFRS)

             •   Leased Assets – NZ IFRS. (NEW)

        By default, the policy applicable for the ledger’s reporting basis will generate, to select an alternative
        reporting base option, enter the associated override code into the FRF .

             •   < PC-LsAlt > to ‘SP’ – will print Special Purpose

             •   < PC-LsAlt > to ‘NZIFRS’ – will print NZ IFRS

             •   < PC-LsAlt > blank – will print the policy based on the ledger type.

        Consistent with all policies, if the policy is not required to be printed it can be stop printed.

  Property, Plant and Equipment Note (2n-FixedAssets): Leased (Right-
  of-Use) Assets
        The Property, Plant and Equipment Note for NZIFRS has been extended for the disclosure of Right-of-
        Use Assets.

   Change in Accounting Policy
        To allow for transition to IFRS 16, a ‘Change in Accounting Policy’ row has been added after the Opening
        Balance. Where the general ledger’s last year closing balance does not equal the current year opening
        balance, the ‘Change in Accounting Policy’ row will print. Note: For an integrated ledger, this should
        be done via Assets > Opening Balances.

Release Notes | APS NZ Xcede Sheets and Templates - April 2020 | Page 31 of 52
Right-of-Use-Assets Extension
             For the NZIFRS asset note only, a table has been added for the disclosure of the ‘Carrying Amount’
             of Right-of-Use Assets. Integrated Assets that have been flagged as leased assets in the Asset
             Description screen in XPA, will display as an asset group total. Alternatively, there are 2 FRFs to
             manually enter 2 rows of detail. Note: user defined ROU assets will need to be re-entered for the
             disclosure requirements in the ‘Leases’ (2n-Leases) note.

             Where it is the first year of trading or the transitional year (Ledger start date between 1/1/2019
             31/12/2019), this table won’t display comparatives.

Appendix 3. Placeholder Notes (Notes - Placeholder1 & Notes -
Placeholder2)
        Two blank notes sheets have been created to be used as placeholders after the NOTES in a jobstream.
        These placeholder notes reserve page numbers for external notes to be inserted after the jobstream has
        generated. The placeholder notes generate blank pages which will need to be discarded and replaced
        with the external notes.

        Financial reporting fields are used to define the number pages for each placeholder note (Maximum of
        10 pages each).

        The page numbers will be included on the index (2Index_JobOrder) as part of the Notes to and forming
        part of the Financial Statements.

        In the example below, the ‘Notes – Placeholder’ will be replaced with the external notes.

        The placeholder notes must be positioned directly after the NOTES (External Note Sheet) in the
        jobstream.

Appendix 4. Value Add SnapShot Dashboard (VA_SnapShot)
        The Snapshot Dashboard has been enhanced to be more aligned with the income statement and allow
        a bit more flexibility in some of the calculations. Additional FRFs have been added to accommodate the
        enhanced functionality. Some of the calculations have also been amended, refer to the calculations
        below.

        New tiles have been added for Trade Revenue and Trade Expenses. These tiles can be turned on and off
        using FRF < VA_SSTrRE>.

   Report Options
        The FRF, Show Revenue (Gross Profit) excluding Other Income and Other Revenue? < VA_SSGPOI> has
        an impact on a number of the calculations.

   Calculations
        The SnapShot Dashboard is based on the ‘VA_Reports’ tag set. The following explains how the values on
        the tiles are calculated.

        Total Revenue: No changes

                 = TradeRevenue + OtherIncome + OtherRevenue

        Total Expenses: Amended to include of COGS and Direct Costs.

                 = COGs + Direct Costs + Sum of Expense1 - Expense10 + Interest + Depreciation + Shareholder &
                 Directors Rem + Taxation

Trade Revenue: New tile

            = TradeRevenue

        Trade Expenses: New tile

            = COGS + DirectCosts

        Gross Profit:

            Previous sheet calculation: Total Revenue - COGS

            Amended to allow the exclusion of Other Income and Other Revenue .

            The title will adjust according to the selection and can be customised using FRF < VA_SSGPTit>.

            = Trade Revenue – COGs ( set to Yes)

            = Total Revenue – COGs ( set to No)

        Operating Profit:

             Previous sheet excluded depreciation, interest and tax from the Operating Profit calculation.

             FRFs have been added to allow the exclusion of:

             •   Interest 
             •   Taxes 
             •   Owners Remuneration .

             Depreciation, Interest, Taxes and Owners Remuneration))/ Revenue

✓    For the following two formulas there was a discrepancy between the Current Liabilities on the
             Balance Sheet and the SnapShot Dashboard. This was caused by the swinging accounts such as
             Current Accounts and Related Parties which were not being calculated correctly between current
             liabilities and current assets on the SnapShot Dashboard.

        Debt to Equity Ratio:

             = (Total Current Liabilities + Total Non-Current Liabilities) / Total Equity

        Working Capital Ratio: No changes

             = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

        Acid Test Ratio: No changes

             = (Cash & Bank + Short Term Investments + Current Receivables) / Current Liabilities

        Times Interest Earned Ratio: No changes

             = Income before Interest and Taxation / Interest

        Debtors Turnover:

             Previous version calculation: Current Receivables (excl. GST) / Ave Receivables

             Formula has been amended as follows:

             = Revenue / (Current Receivables (Opening Balance + Closing Balance)/2)

             •    set to NO = Total Revenue

             •    set to YES = Trade Revenue.

        Debtors Turnaround:

             Previous version calculation: (Current Receivables (excl. GST) / Total Revenue) * 365

             Formula has been amended as follows:

             = (Current Receivables (Opening Balance + Closing Balance)/2) / Revenue) *365

             •    set to NO = Total Revenue

             •    set to YES = Trade Revenue.

        Creditors Turnaround: No changes

            = Total Purchases / Ave Accounts Payables

        Creditors Turnaround:

            Previous calculation: (Current Receivables (excl. GST) / Total Purchases + Total Expenses) *365

            Formula has been amended as follows:

            = (Ave Accounts Payables / Total Purchases + Total Expenses) *365

Inventory Turnover:

            Previous calculation: Total COGs / Average Inventory

            Formula has been amended as follows:

            = COGS (excl. Direct Costs) / (Inventories (Opening Balance + Closing Balance)/2)

        Inventory Turnaround:

            Previous calculation: Inventories / Total Cost of Goods Sold

            Formula has been amended as follows:

            = (Average Inventory / COGS (excl. Direct Costs)) *365
