Noosa Council
Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022

Note 3. Revenue (continued)

Capital Grants
Capital grants received to enable Council to acquire or construct an item of property, plant and equipment to identified
specifications which will be under Council’s control and which is enforceable are recognised as revenue as and when the
obligation to construct or purchase is completed. For construction projects, this is generally as the construction progresses
in accordance with costs incurred since this is deemed to be the most appropriate measure of the completeness of the
construction project as there is no profit margin.

Donations and Contributions
Where assets are donated or purchased for significantly below fair value, the revenue is recognised when the asset is acquired
and controlled by the Council.

Donations and contributions are generally recognised on receipt of the asset since there are no enforceable performance
obligations.

Physical assets contributed to Council by developers in the form of road works, stormwater, land, infrastructure and park
equipment are recognised as revenue when Council obtains control of the asset and there is sufficient data in the form of
drawings and plans to determine the approximate specifications and values of such assets. Non-cash contributions with a
value in excess of the recognition thresholds are recognised as non-current assets. Those below the thresholds are recorded
as expenses.
