Note 8: Receivables
Accounting policy
Short-term receivables are recorded at their face value, less an allowance for expected losses and any provision for impairment.
A receivable is considered impaired when there is sufficient evidence that we will not be able to collect the amount due. The amount of the impairment is the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of the amount expected to be collected.
The expected credit loss rates for receivables at 30 June 2023 and 30 June 2022 are based on the payment profile of revenue on credit over the previous two years at the measurement date and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced for that period.
The allowance for credit losses at 30 June 2023 and 30 June 2022 was determined as 0%.
