Section III – Supplementary Information

3.1 Financial Highlights

The preparation of future-oriented financial statements is part of new reporting initiatives applicable to all departments starting in this 2011-2012 Report on Plans and Priorities. This new reporting is part of a series of financial initiatives that aim to strengthen accountability, improve transparency and financial management.

The highlights presented in this section are intended to serve as a general overview of PWGSC’s operations. These consolidated condensed future-oriented financial statements are prepared on an accrual basis of accounting to better align consumption of resources with the services provided, rather than reporting solely inlays and outlays of cash.

Reporting of financial authorities which is primarily based on cash flow requirements does not reflect reporting of future-oriented financial results which is on an accrual basis. The two types of reporting are reconciled in PWGSC’s Future-Oriented Consolidated Financial Statements that can be found on PWGSC website
http://www.tpsgc-pwgsc.gc.ca/rapports-reports/rpp/index-eng.html.
