1. President’s Perspective
I am proud to report on behalf of the Council the major highlights of 2016 which include the following: (a) Organised number of high level continued professional
development (CPD) activities. In particular the success of executive management training conducted by our international partner Mr. Ric Willmot of Executive Wisdom Consulting.
(b) 2016 is the full year of implementing the 5 year strategic plan (2015-2019). With the
full staff strength we are on course to achieving the key projects contained in the strategic plan.
(c) The next stage of ICT Integration is progressing well. The complete ICT plan will
integrate and automate critical tasks and functions of the operations of the organisation. The long term outcome will be cost efficiency and value creation.
(d) Council’s plan to move towards securing new land and relocating current office is
progressing well. The new location will allow greater access and flexibility for members and secure recreational and residential zones for the institution.
(e) The amendments to the Accountants’ Act 1996 is now in the final stages. The
changes reflect the changing needs of the profession and keeping touch with global best practices. It is expected to be completed in the next sitting of Parliament.
(f) We are pleased to note that the CPA PNG Branch offices are doing well to serve the
members in the respective regions. At the right time a new branch office will be opened to serve the Highlands region.
(g) We are pleased to announce CPA PNG’s membership on CAPA’s Public Sector
Finance Management Committee. This adds value and recognition to CPA PNG as a Professional Accountancy Body.
(h) Our effort to secure full membership with International Federation of Accountants
(IFAC) has been steady. Our compliance efforts pertaining to satisfying membership obligations required by IFAC was last published on the IFAC website in May 2016. Our compliance and reporting efforts are active, consistent and ongoing. This cannot be achieved in isolation but through the collaborative process of getting key stakeholders involved particularly the government institutions. With the progress so far, we expect to achieve full membership by end of 2017.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank members of the Council, past and present, members of the profession and management of CPA PNG for giving me the opportunity to lead this prestigious organisation. Thank you and God bless.

2. Executive Director’s Review
I have the privilege of reporting to the Annual General Meeting some of the significant progress that have been made in the recent past We understand that CPA PNG is an institution that exists by an Act of Parliament. Our core responsibilities are to serve members. This year we have focused on two key strategic actions. The first strategic action relates to effective promotion of memberships. Under this strategy, we have written to key stakeholders and had meetings and consultations concerning the requirements for structured CPDs and meaningful engagement with subject matter experts in order to secure their services to offer CPDs. We have also reviewed current membership status and recommended to Council for deletion over three years aged listing of non-financial members. We have proactively executed other initiatives in alignment with our strategic focus in order to achieve our strategic outcome which is to increase membership. Our second strategic action that we focused on this year relates to providing quality CPDs to our members at all levels. Our ongoing partnership with subject matter experts has been strong. We are happy to report that this year we have offered high level executive development training as well as technical updates provided by our participating accounting firms. We maintain active, ongoing consultation with the accounting firms to continue offering quality CPDs that are relevant and appropriate to the needs of our members. Next year, we would like to focus on two projects. One of which is the Accountants Act Amendments. This is now in the final stages of review. We expect that the Act amendment process will be completed by end of 2017. The other ongoing project that we are keen to report is the IFAC Membership. CPA PNG became an associate member in 2006. We are happy to report that only two areas that are still outstanding to be complied with. The first being, that there are no audit oversight arrangements in PNG. Our council is looking into addressing that. Secondly the Accounting Standards Board never met for some time now. Our IFAC member compliance program dashboard report of May 2016 shows that International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) has not been adopted by the Government of PNG. We are advocating to getting the ASB reconstituted to endorse and provide guidance on adoption of standards that are promulgated by IFAC. Once these two outstanding obligations are extinguished, we will be lodging our application for full membership. Consistent with the Council’s commitment for 2017, we anticipate to embark on ICT project which will integrate our current membership database management systems with online options. With the adoption of Customer relationship management (CRM) software, we can better manage and analyse member interactions and achieve greater efficiency and maximizing value to our services. How well we can deliver on our strategy depends on the organisation’s capability, which the Council has taken a bold step to invest in ICT as a very significant infrastructure. I invite you to join with me on our journey towards growing our Professional Accountancy Organisation in reaching its maturity.

4. Proactively Market and Promote CPA PNG
The Council aims to continue to make CPA PNG the premier accounting professional body in Papua New Guinea. Mr. Richard Kuna’s membership with the Regional Accountancy body, Confederation of Asia Pacific Accountants (CAPA) is a testament to recognition of CPA PNG as a professional accountancy body capable of participating and contributing to leading the Asia Pacific Regional Accounting body.

4.1 Statutory Requirement
Section 67 of the Accountants Act stipulates that:
(1) A person who –
(a) possesses qualifications of diploma, degree or professional level in commerce, economics, business or related disciplines; and
(b) is employed by the State or by a statutory body or by a private organisation
to perform duties connected with –
(i) the recording, classifying and analysing of financial transactions; or (ii) the preparing of financial information; or (iii) the making of financial or business decisions; or (iv) auditing and/or investigation transactions of an accounting nature; or (v) book-keeping and accounting generally,
shall be registered as an Accountant in Employment.
(2) The prospective employer of a person to whom Subsection (1) applies shall
apply for the registration of that person prior to that person commencing employment.
The degree and diploma qualifications from the following local universities and institutions are prerequisite qualifications to becoming a member under Registered Accounting Graduate and Registered Accounting Technician categories.
University of Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea University of Technology
Pacific Adventist University (including Sonoma Adventist College)
Divine Word University
University of Goroka

4.2 Categories of CPA PNG Membership
The two distinct categories of membership are; Certified Practising Accountants (CPA) and Certified Accounting Technician (CAT). These two categories have gained prominence and the tiers are consistent with similar arrangements around the globe. The premier CPA membership category is restricted to degree qualified accountants (those with accounting major qualifications), while the CAT membership category is open to members with diplomas in accounting, or degree qualifications in disciplines other than a major in accounting from affiliated institutions. The Council realised the importance of the role played by the lower tier accounting staff in organisations and have since adopted high profile papers for its examinations to enhance and further develop candidates with the subject knowledge through the issue of high quality study materials that may be used well after the examinations.
4.3 Membership Statistics
The graph below shows the total membership trend since 2000. Membership of financial members has been moving upwards until 2015 when it slipped to 2016. At the same time the combined non-financial membership has moved up due to payments being received late in the year. We anticipate a similar movement in 2016/2017 period.
5. Educating and Training Future CPAs
Interest in the examination programme continues to increase as Registered Graduate and Accounting Technician members realise the importance of completing professional programmes. The Institute’s branding efforts has greatly added value as indicated by the increase in enrollment for examination. The Council envisages members’ advancement through to CPA status.
The courses in the old structure have been gradually phased out in 2014. This effectively means that the candidates have enrolled under the new CAT and CPA categories as part of the CPA professional program.

5.3 Continuing Professional Education
CPA PNG will continue to deliver quality, practical Continuing Professional Education Programmes (CPEs) to its members. The total number of CPDs conducted has increased compared to the previous years. It is expected to further increase with many of our subject matter experts already confirmed to participate in 2017. The fees charged for our ongoing CPDs for both members and non-members are competitive compared to other similar sessions conducted by training providers and consultants. This will remain unchanged for some time, until a cost structure review is undertaken.
5.4 CPE Hours
As per CPA PNG Rule 10.1: Fellow, CPA and Accounting Technician members are required to undertake a minimum of 40 hours (20 structured and 20 unstructured) of continuing professional education in each year. 10 of the 20 hours of structured CPE must be obtained from CPE organised by CPA PNG. The requirement to complete CPE hours is a necessary requirement to renewing membership. A member can make up for the CPEs within the 12 months if CPEs were not undertaken for the previous year.
6. Branch Activity Reports: The Kokopo branch has witnessed a constant growth in its activities and membership hence, increase in revenue. In collaboration with some stakeholders, Mr. Walom conducted 4 CPDs and other trainings related to business development services with good customer turnout and participation. The branch has some interesting plans for the new financial year including the Enterprise Management Skills. Similarly, the Lae branch also did well despite the Manager being away on sick leave. The branch President and her team focused on maintaining the current membership and driving its marketing activities further to secondary schools and colleges in Lae. Such initiatives are crucial for the growth of the profession. With the branch manager back on site, we foresee increased level of membership drive activities.
7. Annual Conference Participation in our three annual conferences continues to grow each year. The Branch conferences have also been successfully organised with more activities and stakeholder participation. 7.1 Kokopo Conference – held at Vunapope Conference Centre, on 17th June 2016. The
theme was “Tax Revenue as an enabler of economic growth – what are the challenges?” A total of 132 delegates attended. This was slightly more than the previous period (2015 - 110).
7.2 Lae Annual Conference – held at Melanesian Hotel, Lae on 19 and 20 August 2016.
The theme was “Business Management and Financial Control in Challenging time”. We had 291 participants. This was a bit more than the previous period (2015 - 289).
7.3 CPAPNG / CPA Australia Annual Conference – held at Gateway Hotel, Port
Moresby in November 2015. The theme was “Accounting beyond accountability-enhancing professionalism and adding value”. We maintained the attendance over 1,000 with 1,049 but it was slightly below the previous year (2014 – 1,062).

7. Accounting Standards Board (ASB)
The Accounting Standards Board that comes under the Investment Promotion Authority has not met for more than five years to deliberate on outstanding issues falling within their jurisdiction. One of the notable outstanding agenda items awaiting ASB attention is the International Financial Reporting Standards for Small to Medium-sized Entities (IFRSs for SMEs). If adopted, this will mean that those entities who meet the SME/SMP criteria may prepare accounts using these standards which are a simpler version of the current IFRSs. It has been a practice that we only adopt the globally applicable standards as we do not have the capacity to develop and apply our own standards in this jurisdiction.
8. Staffing CPA PNG currently has fourteen full time staff. Twelve are based in Port Moresby while one in Lae and one in Kokopo. During the period, the newly created positions of Public Relations Officer and Front Desk Receptionist have been filled in early 2016. Recruitments for other new positions have been put on hold including the position of Manager Mt Hagen Branch. Other staff movements are the recruitment of Talie Andrew Irabu to fill in the position of the Finance and Administration Director vacated by Mr. Nicholas Koimo and the position of the office driver. CPA PNG employees are committed serving members.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Financial Year ended 30 September 2016 1. Summary of accounting policies
Statement of compliance The financial statements of Certified Practising Accountants Papua New Guinea (“CPA PNG”) have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the Accounting Standards Board of Papua New Guinea (ASB). Basis of preparation The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of certain non-current assets and financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events is reported. The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial report. a) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, cash in banks and investments in
money market instruments, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. b) Comparative amounts
Where applicable comparative amounts are to be reclassified with current year classification, to ensure consistency. There were no such reclassifications done during the financial year.
c) Employee benefits Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of annual leave and long
service leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.
Provisions made in respect of employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months,
are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.
Defined contribution plans Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed when incurred. d) Provisions Provisions are recognized when the CPA PNG has a present obligation, the future
sacrifice of economic benefits is probable, and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably.
Certified Practising Accountants Papua New Guinea
CPA PNG Annual Report 21 | P a g e
Summary of accounting policies continued
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that recovery will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
e) Taxation
The net income of CPA PNG is exempted from income tax under Section 27 of the Papua New Guinea Income Tax Act 1959 as amended.
f) Impairment of assets
At each reporting date, CPA PNG reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, CPA PNG estimated the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
g) Financial instruments
Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets ‘at fair value through profit or loss’, ‘held-to-maturity’ investments, ‘available-for-sale’ financial assets, and ‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. Investments are valued as at 30 September 2016 as follows: i. Listed shares are valued at 30 September 2016 at last sale price on that date.
Certified Practising Accountants Papua New Guinea
CPA PNG Annual Report 22 | P a g e
Summary of accounting policies continued ii. The net movement on revaluation is reflected in the statement of comprehensive
income. Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently re-measured at fair value based on quoted bid prices. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of securities classified as FVTPL are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they arise. AFS financial assets are recognized at fair value based on an independent valuation. Gains or losses arising from the change in the fair value are recognized in the investment revaluation reserve. Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the CPA PNG’s has the positive intention and ability to hold-to-maturity. Where there is intention to sell other than insignificant amount to held-to-maturity assets, the entire category would be tainted and reclassified as available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using effective interest rate method. Trade receivables, loans and other receivables are recorded at amortised cost less impairment.
h) Property, plant and equipment
Land and buildings are measured at fair value. Fair value is determined on the basis of independent valuation prepared by external valuation experts, based on discounted cash flows or capitalization of net income (as appropriate). The fair values are recognized in the financial statements of the CPA PNG, and are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to ensure that the carrying value of land and buildings is not materially different from their fair values. Any revaluation increase arising on the revaluation of land and buildings is credited to the asset revaluation reserve, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease for the same asset previously recognized as an expense in profit or loss, in which case the increase is credited to the income statement to the extent of the decrease previously charged. A decrease in carrying amount arising on the revaluation of land and buildings is charged as an expense in profit or loss to the extent that it exceeds the balance, if any, held in the asset revaluation reserve relating to a previous revaluation of that asset. Depreciation on revalued buildings is charged to profit or loss. On the subsequent sale or retirement of a revalued property, the attributable revaluation surplus remaining in the asset revaluation reserve, net of any related deferred taxes, is transferred directly to retained earnings. Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. In the event that settlement of all or part of the purchase consideration is deferred, cost is determined by discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present value as at the date of acquisition.
Certified Practising Accountants Papua New Guinea
CPA PNG Annual Report 23 | P a g e
Summary of accounting policies continued
Depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment, including freehold buildings but excluding land. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write-off the net cost or other revalued amount of each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. The estimated useful lives and depreciation method is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period. The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation:
Buildings 20 years Office equipment 4 years Computers and printers and furniture 5 years Motor vehicle 5 years
i) Revenue recognition
Revenue is accounted for on the accrual basis of accounting, except for membership fees which are brought to account when received. Interest revenue Interest income is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the CPA PNG and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition. Dividend revenue Dividend revenue from investments is recognized when the shareholder’s right to receive payment has been established (provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the CPA PNG and the amount of income can be measured reliably). Property rental income Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct cost incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Movement in fair market value of investments Changes in fair market value of investments are recognized as income and are determined between the difference between the fair market value at year end or consideration received (if sold during the year) and the fair market value as at the prior year end or cost (if the investment was acquired during the period).

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Financial Year ended 30 September 2016 17. Financial Instruments
(a) Financial Risk Management Objectives
CPA PNG’s Council provides services to the institute, co-ordinates access to domestic financial markets, and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the CPA PNG. CPA PNG does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the CPA PNG’s policies approved by the Council, which provide written principles on the use of financial derivatives. Compliance with policies and exposure limits is reviewed by the Council on a continuous basis.
(b) Significant Accounting Policies
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognized, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 1 to the financial statement.
(c) Interest Rate Risk Management
CPA PNG is not exposed to interest rate risk as it does not have any borrowing with any financial institutions at year end.
(d) Credit Risk Management
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the CPA PNG. CPA PNG recognized membership fees only when received and is brought to account. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowances for losses, represents the CPA PNG’s maximum exposure to credit risk.
(e) Liquidity Risk Management
CPA PNG manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and banking facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

18. Fair values
Fair value estimation The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1)
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (Level 2)
