Section 2: Revisions to outcomes and outputs

Outcomes and output groups

The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has not made any changes to its outcome or outputs since the 2004-05 Portfolio Budget Statements.

Output cost attribution

Each programme of activity (cost centre) in ASIC is linked to one of the four outputs. Accordingly, expenses against these programmes accrue against the outputs as they occur.

Where an expense relates to more than one output, it is allocated using a predetermined formula. For example, property lease expenses are allocated using staff numbers attributed to each programme.
