Government—costs
(Question No 964)
Mr Coe asked the Minister for Territory and Municipal Services, upon notice, on 25 March 2010:
(1) What output costing methodology is used to allocate costs across the Minister’s department and each agency within the Minister’s portfolio.
(2) What are the top ten individual depreciation costs for the department and each agency.
(3) What assets do the costs referred to in part (2) refer to and what was the initial cost of the assets.
Mr Stanhope: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) The majority of the Department’s costs are directly allocated to outputs based on actual consumption with overhead costs allocated on the basis of consumption, for example rental costs are based on space occupied, and HR costs are allocated on the basis of employee distribution.
(2) Attachment A provides depreciation costs by Asset Class.
(3) Attachment A provides a summary of the type of assets in each asset class. The initial cost of each asset is not available as assets are revalued on a 3 year rolling basis using a fair value or depreciated replacement cost methodology.
(A copy of the attachment is available at the Chamber Support Office).
