Unaudited Supplementary Financial Information

Financial Performance Information - Parliamentary Appropriations

Financial reporting methodologies

The CCRA's funding is provided by Parliament through annual appropriations (modified cash accounting basis) and the CCRA reports its expenditures and performance to Parliament, together with details on the management of Parliamentary appropriations on the same basis.

In addition to the above reporting requirements, the CCRA is also required to prepare its annual financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles applied in preparing the financial statements of the Government of Canada (full accrual accounting basis). Accordingly, the audited Statement of Operations - Agency Activities includes certain items such as services provided by other government departments. Other items, such as capitalized assets, are excluded from the financial statements but included here. A detailed reconciliation by business line can be found on Table 10.
