The accompanying accounting policies and notes form part of these financial statements.
Capital commitments
Capital commitments are the aggregate amount of capital expenditure contracted for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets that has not been paid for or recognised as a liability at balance date.
Cancellable capital commitments that have early exit or penalty costs explicit in the agreement are reported at the lower of the remaining contractual commitment or the value of those exit or penalty costs (i.e. the minimum future payments).
Non-cancellable operating lease commitments
Inland Revenue Te Tari Taake (IR) leases property, plant and equipment in the normal course of business. The majority of these commitments are long-term non-cancellable accommodation leases for IR's premises at locations throughout New Zealand. The annual lease payments are reviewed regularly, and the amounts disclosed as future commitments are based on current rental rates.
IR sub-leases some of its premises. The total minimum future sub-lease payments expected to be received under non-cancellable sub-leases at balance date is $4.341 million (2023–24: $2.139 million).
IR’s non-cancellable operating leases have varying terms and renewal rights. There are no restrictions placed on IR by any of its leasing arrangements.
