Operating budget The year to date net operating surplus of $136.42 million is $1.86 million or 1% above the September Amended Budget surplus of $134.56 million. The favourable 1% variance in the budgeted surplus is primarily due to timing differences and expected for this time of year. Funds will be expended throughout the year as budgeted by Council.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement
Cash and investment holdings are $115.39 million as at 30 September 2016 which has increased by $20.68 million from June 2016.
Total cash and investment holdings are $7.45 million higher than year to date budget primarily due to:
Higher than budgeted rates and charges of $1.27 million due to timing and higher collection rate (33.61%) than anticipated (33%).Fire services property levies received of $5.94 million. Council collects the fireservice property levy on behalf of the State Government and remits the levies to the State Revenue Office in four payments in accordance with Section 41(1) of Fire Services Property Levy Act (FSPL). This item is not provided for in the Annual Budget as all monies received during the financial year are forwarded on to the State Revenue Office. The accounting treatment is in accordance with that approved by the Victorian Auditor-General’s Office.Employee costs are $765,000 lower than budgeted primarily due to department restructures and staff vacancies across the organisation.
Partially offset by:Lower than budgeted user charges and other receipts from customers of ($650,000) due to the timing and settlement of debtors.Operating grants are lower than budgeted ($449,000) due to timing being ahead of planned budget phasing.Higher payments for property, infrastructure, plant and equipment of ($499,000) due to timing of cash outflows relating to the capital works program.
The Balance Sheet as at 30 September 2016 indicates a satisfactory result with total current assets of $237.47 million and total current liabilities of $34.94 million (working capital of 6.80 to 1) depicts a satisfactory financial position.
The working capital ratio of 6.80 to 1 (includes $715,000 cash contingency for emergency response works and reserve funds of $12.41 million) reflects the increase in current debtors resulting from the striking of the rates which will diminish over the course of the year as Council funds its operating programs and capital works. The rate debt will be repaid over the remainder of the financial year in accordance with the payment options chosen by ratepayers.
