Accounting Policy
Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised when performance of specific service obligations, that are required and
enforceable under a contract or agreement made between the Commission and the customer, sufficiently allow the Commission to
determine when they have been satisfied.
The principal activities from which the Commission generates its revenue include, service fees and direct cost recoveries from the
supply of domestic and international human rights technical assistance programs, development of education resources and delivery of
training services and interest earned on short-term bank deposits.
The Commission predominantly provides services to its customers under agreed terms and conditions contained in contracts or
agreements made between the two parties. The nature, timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, and any significant payment
terms are specified in the agreed terms and conditions, milestones and payment schedules.
The transaction price is the total amount of consideration to which the Commission expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring
promised services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable
amounts, or both. No consideration from contracts is excluded in the transaction price. In the event that a change is required to any
of the terms and conditions contained in a contract or agreement, including transaction price, a Contract Variation is agreed between
the parties. The Commission has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the
customer of the Commission’s performance completed to date under the original contract or subsequent variations to the contract.
Where performance obligations are satisfied over time, revenue is recognised monthly in arrears following a review of costs incurred
for the delivery of service obligations for the project(s) and activities related to the customer contract. Costs incurred are primarily
recurring in nature, and the customer simultaneously receives and effectively gains control of the services as the Commission performs
its obligations.
Revenue for performance obligations satisfied at a point in time is recognised in accordance with specified milestones for the
performance of obligations in the contract, for example “acceptance of a final report by the customer”. Customer contracts with
performance obligations satisfied at a point in time are short-term and include agreed dates for completion of milestones and
transferral of any deliverable(s), this also indicates when a customer obtains control of outputs from the promised services. Milestone
completion is confirmed with relevant contract manager prior to revenue recognition.
Receivables for goods and services, which have 30 day terms, are recognised at the nominal amounts due less any impairment
allowance account. Collectability of debts is reviewed at end of the reporting period. Allowances are made when collectability of the
debt is no longer probable.
