Notes to the Financial Statements
Basis of accounting
The agency budgeted statements are prepared in compliance with Australian Accounting Standards, Accounting Guidance Releases and having regard to Statements of Accounting Concepts.
As part of the 2002‑03 Mid‑Year Economic Fiscal Outlook (MYEFO) and Additional Estimates process, the Australian Bureau of Statistics undertook a comprehensive review of its budget estimates with the aim of refining these estimates.
Changes to Appropriation Estimates since the 2002‑03 Portfolio Budget Statements relate to adjustments for the revised parameters and the interest revenue earned from devolved banking arrangements.
Revisions to component items are based upon the 2001‑02 audited financial statements and revised budget data used in developing the accrual budgets.
