NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices
The accounting policies and practices of the Province have been developed over the years to meet changing
circumstances and needs; they are based on concepts and provisions contained in the Revenue Act, Financial Control Act,
the annual Supply Act and other legislation.
While these policies and practices are regularly reviewed, a comprehensive examination has been conducted taking
into account the suggestions of the study on Canadian Government financial reporting principles and practices sponsored
by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. The results of this examination have been reviewed and it is
anticipated that the financial statements for the 1980/81 fiscal year will reflect the recommended changes in reporting
principles and practices.
Current policies and practices are outlined in the following paragraphs.
A. The Accounting Entity and Basis of Reporting
The financial statements include the accounts of the Consolidated Revenue Fund and of certain funds deposited with
[and administered by the Minister of Finance pursuant to various statutes. They do not include those of Crown corporations
land other separate Government agencies. The interest of the Province in its Crown entities is shown only to the extent of
[amounts invested in or advanced to them and as to guarantees of their debt securities issued. Accumulated earnings (or
deficits) retained in these organizations are not reflected in the financial statements.
The financial statements summarize the financial activities of the Province during the year and show the assets,
pliabilities and undisbursed balances of revenue and funds at the close of the year. For purposes of these statements the
Recounts of the Province are presented in four fund divisions:
O General Fund—includes the main operating accounts of the Province plus certain asset accounts included for
purposes of information and record only through off-setting contra-entries to Capital Surplus Account.
O Special Purpose Funds—earmarked revenues and funds set aside from the General Fund for specific or special
purposes.
O Superannuation Funds—the accounts of the Public Service and Members of the Legislative Assembly Superannuation funds.
O Trust Funds—deposits, sinking funds and other accounts administered or held in trust for others.
fe. Basis of Accounting—General Fund
(1) -Gross Basis of Accounting—In general, revenues and expenditures are reported on a gross basis by source of
revenue and by program expenditure appropriations as set out in the annual Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure or in
Bther legislative authority, except where receipts are credited against related program expenditures in the Estimates.
Revenues and expenditures are presented in three categories:
(i) budgetary transactions,which are the ordinary revenues and expenditures of Government included in the
annual Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure;
(ii) nonbudgetary transactions, which are extraordinary revenues and expenditures of significant amount not
anticipated in the annual Estimates or in revenue surplus account appropriations;
(iii) revenue surplus account appropriations expenditures which are specifically authorized by the Legislature
as payable out of surpluses of prior years.
(2) Cash Basis of Accounting—The cash basis of accounting, modified as described below, is used to report on the
Stewardship of the Government with respect to taxes and other revenues raised and to funds appropriated and expended for
Elovemment programs. On this basis, revenues are taken into the accounts in the fiscal period in which they are received
and expenditures are charged when the actual payments are made.
In addition to payments for salaries and wages, goods and services, interest, grants and subsidies and other program
operating expenses, expenditures include:
—the acquisition and construction of physical assets:
. —loans and recoverable advances to individuals, Crown corporations and agencies and other organizations
including school and regional improvement districts;
—equity investment in Crown and other corporations:
—transfers to special purpose and superannuation funds;
—internal transfers between appropriations.
At year-end the following major modifications are applied to the cash basis accounts in determining the annual
Operating results in the General Fund:
—monies received in April of the next following year pertaining to cost-sharing programs with other
governments or agencies are included in revenue where related expenditures have been charged to the fiscal
year;
—the net profit of the Liquor Distribution Branch and the net income of the British Columbia Systems
Corporation, calculated on the accrual basis of accounting, are included as revenue whether or not received in
cash during the fiscal year;
—accounts payable at March 31 are included as expenditures, where payments are made during April of the next
following year;
—interest accrued at March 31 on the unmatured debt is included as expenditures;
—inventories and other assets of the Queen's Printer and the Purchasing Commission warehouse at March 31
are deducted from expenditures and carried forward as working capital advances.
A 10 PROVINCE OF BRITISH COLUMBIA
(3) Reporting of Assets and Liabilities—The assets and liabilities of the General Fund reported in the financial
statements include:
(i) those arising from the cash transactions of the Government and the year-end modifications. They include
cash and temporary investments, liabilities for outstanding cheques and unmatured debt at the close of the
year, amounts due from other organizations for miscellaneous non-revenue services provided, monies
held in suspense and other accounts pending disposition and amounts resulting from the modifications to
the cash basis of accounting for revenues and expenditures described above;
(ii) taxes and other accounts receivable, loans, advances and investments (including Crown corporations)
and certain fixed assets which are included as assets even though they are accounted for as revenues and
expenditures at the time cash is received or disbursed. These assets are reported under the heading of
"Other recorded assets'' for purposes of record and information through memorandum contra-entries to
the Captial Surplus Account.
Assets representing investments or financial claims on others are recorded at cost or other designated values. Where
appropriate, provisions for doubtful recoveries of receivables, loans, advances, or investments are provided.
(4) Accounting for the Excess of Assets Over Liabilities-—The net assets of the General Fund are accounted for in
two surplus accounts:
(i) the Revenue Surplus Account represents the accumulation of revenues and expenditures to date and is
presented in two sections:
—Surplus April 1, 1976 to date, which is represented by cash and other current assets less the liabilities
other than the unmatured debt.
—Deficit at March 31, 1976 which is funded by the unmatured debt,
(ii) the Capital Surplus Account represents the recorded value of the assets included in the financial
statements on a memorandum basis for record and information purposes as outlined above.
C. Basis of Accountino—Other Funds
(1) Special Purpose Funds—The accounts of these Funds are maintained on the cash basis of accounting. However, I
in the Crown Land and Home Acquisition funds, transactions recording the acquisition and disposal of certain program
assets are accounted for as capital transactions instead of current expenditures or revenues. Accordingly assets of these
funds include advances and mortgages receivable, real estate held for development and investments in and advances to
Crown corporations and are recorded at cost except where assets have been written down to reflect recoverable values.)
Gains and losses realized on disposal of these assets are included in revenues and expenditures.
As in the General Fund, revenues and expenditures are generally reported on a gross basis by source of
revenue—including transfers from General Fund expenditure accounts—and by appropriate classifications of expendi- j
ture. primarily grants.
(2) Superannuation Funds—These Funds are maintained on a cash basis. Revenues are reported net of refunds and |
include Government employer contributions transferred from General Fund expenditure accounts. Expenditures are
superannuation allowances paid.
(3) Trust Funds—Individual accounts are maintained on a cash basis. Receipts and disbursements are not reported
as such but are reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as increases or decreases in the balances of funds held.
(4) Interest Entitlement—The interest entitlement of individual funds or accounts is determined by the governing
statute. Some statutes do not provide for specific investment of funds nor for any interest to be paid while others may j
specify that any interest earned on fund investments is to be credited to General Fund revenues rather than to the specific
fund.
(5) Funds and Cash Assets Accounting and Reporting—In accordance with statutory or administrative requirements, separate accounts are maintained for each of the individual accounts included in these fund divisions. Where
required by the governing legislation or administrative policy, separate bank accounts and/or specific investment accounts
are also maintained. Otherwise the cash assets together with any uninvested balances of funds are held In the General Fund
cash and temporary investment accounts for purposes of administration and cash management. Interest due to individual
funds or accounts on such balances is paid or allocated at market rates.
At the close of the year these cash balances are reported in the assets of the applicable fund divisions in the financ ial
statements together with the balances held in the specific bank and investment accounts.
D. Commitments'
No provision is made in the accounts for commitments under construction or other contracts in force at the year-end.
2. Cash and Investments
Investments are recorded at cost with the exception of long-term debt securities held by the Superannuation Funds
which are recorded at the lower of cost or par since premiums paid on these securities are written off at the time of]
purchase. No allowances or provisions for losses on realization of investments are included in the accounts; any such |
losses, or gains, are accounted for at the time of sale or maturity.
At March 31, 1980, SI ,664,871,328 of the investments held are securities issued or guaranteed by the Province.
3. Crown Service Corporations
Functions formerly performed internally by the Government are the responsibility of two Crown corporations formed
to provide facilities and services to the Government on a fee-for-service basis.
J
PUBLIC ACCOUNTS 1979/80 A ](
(1) The British Columbia Buildings Corporation provides building accommodation and related facilities and
services to Government ministries on a rental and service fee basis. AH Government buildings except the
Legislative Buildings, Government House and certain other properties have been transferred to the
. Corporation.
Consequently, expenditures for the construction, maintenance and related costs of public buildings
are no longer direct budgetary expenditures of the Government—primarily of the Ministry of Highways
and Public Works—but are incurred by the Corporation and recovered through annual building
occupancy charges to user ministries which are included in their budgetary expenditures.
In consideration for the income-producing properties transferred from the Government, and which
had been charged to Government expenditures in prior years, the Corporation issued a noninterest bearing
note to the Province dated March 31, 1978 in the amount of $143,570,934 being the deemed cost of
depreciable properties included in the determination of the occupancy charges. The note is payable in 29
semi-annual $5 million instalments which are credited to budgetary revenue when received by the Province
thereby offsetting on an aggregate basis the deemed-costs portion of the annual building occupancy
charges payable by the ministries. A second noninterest bearing note for $44,357,184 was issued to the
Province by the Corporation. This note is payable by one instalment of $3 million on June I, 1980, ten
subsequent annual instalments of $3.8 million starting June 1,1981 and one final instalment of $3,357,184
June 1, 1991.
The Province also receives dividends from the Corporation from time to time which are credited to
budgetary revenue.
(2) The British Columbia Systems Corporation is responsible for the provision of data processing services to
ministries on a fee-for-service basis. Its annual net income is payable to the Province and is included in
budgetary revenue.
K Financial statements of these corporations are included in Section F.
4. British Columbia Railway Company
[ The Province holds the entire issued share capital of the Railway and, pursuant to the British Columbia Railway
Eiance Act (formerly the British Columbia Railway Construction Loan Act), guarantees the payment of the principal and
interest of all monies borrowed by the Railway. The historic cost of the shares was $ 185,572,900 and, at March 31,1980,
ra amount of the debt guaranteed by the Province (net of sinking funds) was $727,495,239.
| In view of the cumulative deficit of the Railway ($348,497,000 as at December 31,1979) the Province's investment
in the Railway has been written down to one dollar. However, the debt of the Railway which is guaranteed by the
Province is not recorded as direct debt of the Province since the Government has stated its intention to provide for the debt
service charges of the Railway on an ongoing basis.
I British Columbia Railway Company's debt servicing charges for the next five fiscal years ending March 31, 1981
through March 31, 1985 are estimated to be $87.4, $82.1, $80.9, $79.7 and $79.7 million respectively.
Llg. Ocean Falls Corporation
■ Ocean Falls Corporation, established in 1973, acquired the Crown Zellerbach Canada Limited newsprint mill and
HTOmsite at Ocean Falls for a payment of $789,952. As at March 31, 1980 the Provincial Government had also advanced
i the Corporation $10 million.
I As a result of detailed studies into the availability of timber supply and the economics of continuing mill production
Mj^ decision was made to cease operation at the beginning of June, 1980. The Corporation incurred a loss of $26,865,637
M^the year ended December 31,1979 after providing $19,355,819 for the estimated costs of terminating mill operations,
.resulting in a cumulative deficit of $32,327,044.
Win these financial statements full provision has been made to write-off the investment in and advance to the
I ICorporation, but no provision has been made for the outstanding obligations of the Corporation estimated at $33 million as
. at September 30, 1980.
6. Guaranteed Debt
I In addition to the direct debt included in the liabilities of the General Fund, the Province also guarantees debt
l|g:urities issued by local governments and Crown corporations and agencies and the obligations of other enterprises under
L certain Government programs. This debt is generally self-sustaining, however, that issued by school and regional hospital
llastricts and educational institutions is serviced in part by contributions from the Province through existing grant formulas.
Uffifiscal 1979/80 these contributions were approximately $93 million or 60 percent of the total debt service costs payable.
[ As a result of over-all Government financing policies $3.6 billion of the guaranteed debt is held in Provincial public
: sector superannuation, pension and other funds, of which $214 million is held by the General and Special Purpose Funds
and is deducted from the grand total of guaranteed debt. Canada Pension Plan funds made available to the Province ($2.4
llgllion) are also invested in these long-term securities, but are subject to earlier redemption by the federal Minister of
UEnance on six months' notice for the requirements of the Plan.
[ The guaranteed debt is disclosed in the schedules to the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

7. Superannuation and Pension Plans
A. Public Service Superannuation Plan
This plan is financed by employee contributions, matching employer contributions, and additional employer
contributions paid at the time each allowance is granted for any shortfall between the actuarial present value of the
allowance and the accumulated employee and matching employer contributions.
Under the Pension (Public Service) Act. an actuarial valuation of the plan is required to be conducted at least once
every five years. The most recent valuation was conducted as at March 31, 1977.
In that report the actuary indicated that, if the plan was financed on the entry age normal basis, a basis frequently!
employed by private pension plans, there would be an actuarial liability as at March 31, 1977 of about $154 million in|
respect of basic benefits. In the actuary's opinion, aggregate statutory contributions, as described above, will exceed entry
age normal contributions and he has estimated that these contributions will be sufficient to fully amortize the $ 154 million
actuarial liability over a period of approximately 20 years if all actuarial assumptions are realized. An actuarial report as at
March 31, 1980 is in preparation.
Allowances in payment are automatically adjusted quarterly to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index. Such
pension supplements are financed on an approximate "pay-as-you-go" basis by contributions of one-half per cent of
salary by both employees and employer. Actuarial liabilities associated with such increases are not funded under the]
statutory financing provisions, but there is provision for both employee and employer contributions to be increased to t pen
cent of salary when required to maintain the financing on a "pay-as-you-go" basts. There is no statutory provision for any
additional contributions beyond this to finance these post-retirement supplements even though it is possible that in future
such contributions would be required to maintain financing on the "pay-as-you-go" basis. The actuary reported that as at
March 31,1977 there was an actuarial liability of $37 million in respect of the pension supplements granted up to that date.
Statutory amendments were passed by the Legislature in August 1980. The significant provisions are for annual.
rather than quarterly, cost of living supplementary allowances, payable to the extent that monies equal to the capitalized
value are available in an Inflation Adjustment Account created for the purpose, for an increase in employee and employed
contributions of 0.5 per cent of salary, and for an increase of 0.75 per cent of salary (to 1,25 per cent I in the allocation on
employee and employer contributions to the Inflation Adjustment Account.
B. Teachers' Pensions Plan
Under the Pension (Teachers) Act the Province is responsible for the employer contributions to the Teachers"
Pensions Fund administered by the Commissioner of Teachers* Pensions; these contributions are included in the budgetary
expenditures of the Ministry of Education. A report on the administration of the plan and fund is made annually to the
Legislature.
This plan is financed by teacher contributions, matching Government contributions, and additional Government
contributions made to ensure that at any time the assets in the fund are at least equal to the actuarial present value of all
allowances which are in effect and the total amount of contributions, accumulated with interest, held in the fund on behalf
of teachers in respect of whom no allowance has been granted.
Under the Pension (Teachers) Act, an actuarial valuation of the plan is required to be conducted by an actuary at least
once in each consecutive five-year period. The most recent valuation was conducted as at December 31. 1977. In (hat
report the actuary recommended that the statutory basis of contributions be strengthened so that contributions, in future,
would be sufficient to fully finance benefits for all new entrants to the plan and to hold the actuarial liability constant as a
percentage of future teacher payroll. On this basis, he advised that the actuarial liability was $548 million for basic
benefits. While this represents an increase of $80 million since December 31,1974. the report stated that the plan "funded
ratio" has improved.
Allowances in payment are automatically adjusted quarterly to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index. Such \
pension supplements are financed on an approximate "pay-as-you-go" basis by contributions of 1 percent of salary by J
both teachers and Government. Actuarial liabilities associated with such increases are not funded under the statutory
financing provisions. There is no statutory provision for any additional contributions to finance these post-retirement |
supplements even though it is possible that in future such contributions would be required to maintain financing on (heJ
"pay-as-you-go" basis.
Statutory amendments were passed by the Legislature in August 1980. The significant provisions are for increased
contributions exceeding 2 percent of salaries by the Province as well as a 0.5 per cent increase in contributions by teachers
in relation to basic pension benefits, and for annual, rather than quarterly, cost of living supplementary allowances,'!
payable to the extent that monies equal to the capitalized value are available in an account created for the purpose.!
8. Subsequent Events
