Section 3: Supplementary Information

3.1    Future-Oriented Financial Statements

The future-oriented financial highlights presented within this report are intended to serve as a general overview of the TSB's financial position and operations. These financial statements are prepared on an accrual accounting basis to strengthen accountability and improve transparency and financial management.

Net Cost of Operations 34,856 35,782

As shown in the above table, the TSB is projecting a net cost of operations of $34.9 million, based on funding requested in the 2011-12 Main Estimates, anticipated funding through Supplementary Estimates for signed collective agreements and accrual information.  The forecasted expenses for 2011-12 are lower than 2010-11 because an estimate of expenses stemming from unsigned collective agreements and other elements that cannot be reasonably estimated (e.g. expenses relating to retiring employees that are recoverable from Treasury Board Secretariat votes) have not been included in the forecast.
