Capital expenditure |
Average capital expenditure per assessment |
Amount capitalised to the statement of financial position and contributions by a Local Government to major assets not owned by the Local Government, including expenditure on:

- capital expansion which extends an existing asset at the same standard as currently enjoyed by residents to a new group of users
- capital upgrade which upgrades an existing asset to provide a higher level of service or expenditure that will increase the life of the asset beyond that which it had originally,
divided by the number of assessments used in the calculation of the adopted rate (that is, when the rate was struck).
N.B. Exactly what is included as capital expenditure will vary according to the Local Government's policy in defining the 'asset' and its 'life'. |
