What is new in the 2016/17 GRAP Reporting Framework and what are the related implementation challenges?
What changes will take place to the 2017/18 and 2018/19 GRAP Reporting frameworks and what are the related implementation challenges municipalities can expect?

Amendments to GRAP 17
Property, Plant and Equipment Disclosure of repairs and maintenanceOLD: Users measure the adequacy of repairs and maintenance by comparing this expenditure to the value of assets recognised in the statement of financial position. There WAS however no requirement to separately present this information in the financial statementNEW:R&M incurred on PPE to be disclosed separately in the notes to the AFS.

GRAP Reporting Framework 2017/18 – What is coming?
The amended ASB Directive 5 becomes effective from 1 Apr 2017 (1 July 2017).
An appendix prescribing the GRAP Reporting Framework for financial periods commencing on or after 1 April 2017, approved by the Board on 29 September 2016, has been added to Directive 5 as Appendix B2.There are no changes to Directive 5 for 2017/18 compared to 2016/17.For 2017/18 municipalities and municipal entities will have to ensure that their AFS disclosure and presentation adheres to the requirements of MSCOA for that year and where practical retrospectively.

GRAP Reporting Framework 2018/19 – What is coming?
The amended ASB Directive 5 that will become effective for 2018/19 is not yet available, however the following amendments to certain Standards of GRAP become effective
for financial periods commencing on or after 1 April 2018 (i.e. 1 July 2018 for municipalities and municipal entities):Amendments to GRAP 21 Impairment of non-cash generating assets and GRAP 26 Impairment of cash generating assets; andImprovements to the Standards of GRAP (2016).
CIGFARO WC Seminar 5 to 6 June 2017
12Slide13
Amendments to GRAP 21 & GRAP 26
ASB has amended GRAP 21 & GRAP 26 and the
crux of the amendment lies in the amended definition of a cash-generating asset:“Cash-generating assets” are assets used with the objective of generating a commercial return. Commercial return means that positive cash flows are expected to be significantly higher than the cost of the asset. Definition of non-cash generating assets remains the same, i.e.:“Non-cash-generating assets”
are assets other than cash-generating assets.
Above distinction is important to determine which Standard is applied to calculate potential impairment loss on asset.

will be done at initial recognition of the asset, therefore municipalities will have designate assets as cash generating or non cash generating at initial recognition. NB therefore for all new assets acquired.Develop classification criteria for the following:Objective of using the asset (commercial return or service delivery)Calculation of the positive cash flowsWhat does “Significantly higher” meanWhat is the Cost of the asset. Historical cost or FVDetermining commercial return:At initial recognition, analyse the positive cash flows that will be generated
from the asset over its useful life. Estimates, assumptions and judgement will be required
and will need to be substantiated for auditing purposes.

Summary of Improvements to Standards of GRAP
GRAP 12,16,17,31,103,110 all contain similar improvements.
To clarify the treatment of transaction costs and other costs incurred on assets acquired in non-exchange transactions to be in line with the principle in GRAP 23 (paragraph .12). To clarify the measurement principle when assets may be acquired in exchange for a non-monetary asset or assets, or a combination of monetary and non-monetary assets.

Summary of Improvements to Standards of GRAP
GRAP 12 Improvement as an example.
An international aid agency may donate medical supplies to a public hospital in the aftermath of a natural disaster. Under such circumstances, the cost of the inventory is its fair value as at the date it is acquired. Any transaction costs incurred are recognised in accordance with the requirements of paragraphs .25 to .26 of GRAP 12.Paragraph 25 lists transaction costs that may be included in the cost of the asset.Paragraph 26 lists examples of costs that are expensed.

18 Recognition and De-recognition of Land iGRAP 18 effective from 1 April 2019 (1 July 2019), i.e. for 2019/20Will be read along with Standards of GRAP also dealing with land, e.g. GRAP 13, 16, 17 etc.Even though only effective in 2019/20, due to uncertainties on how to establish control over land, consider indicators of control outlined in iGRAP 18.iGRAP 18 states that there are uncertainties experienced in practice about legal title versus control when accounting for land.

18 Recognition and De-recognition of Land (cont.) In assessing control over land, the following two control indicators exist – apply judgment in applying these indicators:legal ownership, e.g. holding the existing title deed.the right to direct access to land, and to restrict or deny the access of others to land. (Custodianship)If one entity has the right to direct access to, and restrict or deny the access of others to land while another entity is the legal owner of land, substance over form determines that the land is controlled by the entity that has the right to direct access
to land, and to restrict or deny the access of others to land.

iGRAP
18 Recognition and De-recognition of Land (cont.) Legal ownership versus custodianship over land:Custodian responsibilities in terms of legislation or similar means typically involve acquiring land, managing the land throughout its life cycle, and disposing of land subject to the relevant legislative requirements. These responsibilities therefore give the custodian the right to direct access to and restrict or deny access of others to land. As such the custodian, rather than the legal owner, controls the land.

Living and non-living resources Living resources are resources that undergo a biological transformation, e.g. animals and plants used for research which are not accounted for by another Standard of GRAP.Non-living resources are those resources that occur naturally and have not been extracted, e.g. land, and water, minerals, oils and gas and other non-regenerative resources which have not been extracted. Recognition and measurement of living resources very similar to requirements of GRAP 17 PPE, i.e. relating to initial costs part of initial measurement, subsequent measurement models (cost or revaluation models, which includes depreciation, impairment etc.) & de-recognition requirements.
