WHY DO WE ALL CARE?
High materiality
Significant judgments (subjective inputs and complex)
Can point to going concern and sustainability implications
![Page 6: VALUING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS AN AUDITOR’S PERSPECTIVE · VALUING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS – ... Other benchmark data. MAJOR ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS —PATTERN OF SERVICE POTENTIAL](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043012/5faa21ea13875e29d658b247/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
WHAT ARE OUR OBLIGATIONS?
Obtain evidence - quantity and quality
Evaluate valuation inputs and estimates
Are valuations fairly stated and disclosed?
![Page 7: VALUING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS AN AUDITOR’S PERSPECTIVE · VALUING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS – ... Other benchmark data. MAJOR ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS —PATTERN OF SERVICE POTENTIAL](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043012/5faa21ea13875e29d658b247/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
USE OF EXPERTS– ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT
• Methodologies - not well understood or challenged
• Internal experts - not always used
• External experts - scope of work is not clearly defined
• Build consensus – early engagement with all stakeholders
Poor instruction = poor report =poor outcome

MAJOR ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
— OBSOLESCENCE
1. Physical
2. Functional (technological)
3. Economic (external)

MAJOR ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
— DISAGGREGATION OF ASSETS
Advantages:
1. More precise estimates of fair value and depreciation
2. Better understanding of revaluation movements
3. Simpler and more accurate accounting for additions and disposals
4. Enhanced asset management data

MAJOR ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
— USEFUL LIFE
Useful life is an estimate of:
- number of years the entity will use the asset
- number of units expected to be obtained from the asset
Useful lives must be reviewed by management at least every year-end
![Page 21: VALUING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS AN AUDITOR’S PERSPECTIVE · VALUING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS – ... Other benchmark data. MAJOR ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS —PATTERN OF SERVICE POTENTIAL](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043012/5faa21ea13875e29d658b247/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
MAJOR ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
— RESIDUAL VALUE
The estimated disposal proceeds able to be obtained
AASB decision:
- residual value excludes savings available from recycling
- the useful life of recyclable assets is their full life to the entity
Residual values must be reviewed at least every year-end
![Page 22: VALUING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS AN AUDITOR’S PERSPECTIVE · VALUING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS – ... Other benchmark data. MAJOR ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS —PATTERN OF SERVICE POTENTIAL](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043012/5faa21ea13875e29d658b247/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
