29 IPM PETROLEUM LTD AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards - Reduced Disclosure Requirements, Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act The financial report was approved by the directors as at the date of the directors' report. The financial report is for IPM Petroleum Ltd and its consolidated entities. IPM Petroleum Ltd is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. IPM Petroleum Ltd is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by IPM Petroleum Ltd in the preparation and presentation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. (a) Basis of preparation of the financial report Historical Cost Convention The financial report has been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by revaluations to fair value for certain classes of assets as described in the accounting policies. (b) Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements are those of the consolidated entity ("IPM Petroleum Ltd"), comprising the financial statements of the parent entity and all of the entities for which the parent has the power to control the financial and operating policies. The financial statements of both entities are prepared for the same reporting period, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies which may exist. All inter-company balances and transactions, including any unrealised profits or losses have been eliminated on consolidation. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the company and are de-recognised from the date that control ceases. (c) Foreign currency translations and balances Functional and presentation currency The financial statements of each entity within the consolidated entity is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates (the functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the consolidated entity s functional and presentation currency. Transactions and Balances Transactions in foreign currencies of IPM Petroleum Ltd and its controlled entities are translated into functional currency at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction

30 IPM PETROLEUM LTD AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (c) Foreign currency translations and balances (Continued) Foreign currency monetary items that are outstanding at the reporting date (other than monetary items arising under foreign currency contracts where the exchange rate for that monetary item is fixed in the contract) are translated using the spot rate at the end of the financial year. Except for certain foreign currency hedges, all resulting exchange differences arising on settlement or restatement are recognised as revenues and expenses for the financial year. Entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated as follows: Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date; Income and expenses are translated at actual exchange rates or average exchange rates for the period, where appropriate; and All resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity. (d) Revenue Interest revenue is recognised when it becomes receivable on a proportional basis taking in to account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). (e) Income tax Current income tax expense or revenue is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the applicable tax rates when the assets are expected to be recovered or liabilities are settled. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. (f) Property, plant and equipment Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses

31 IPM PETROLEUM LTD AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (f) Property, plant and equipment (Continued) Plant and equipment Plant and equipment is measured on the cost basis. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from those assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows which will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal.

32 IPM PETROLEUM LTD AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (g) Exploration expenditure Exploration for and evaluation of hydrocarbon resources is the search for hydrocarbon resources after the entities have obtained legal rights to explore in a specific area, as well as the determination of the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the hydrocarbon resource. Accordingly, exploration and evaluation expenditures are those expenditures incurred by the entities in connection with the exploration for and evaluation of hydrocarbon resources before the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting hydrocarbon resources are demonstrable. Accounting for exploration and evaluation expenditures is assessed separately for each area of interest. An area of interest is an individual geological area which is considered to constitute a favourable environment for the presence of a hydrocarbon deposit or has been proved to contain such a deposit. Expenditure incurred on activities that precede exploration and evaluation of hydrocarbon resources, including all expenditure incurred prior to securing legal rights to explore an area, is expensed as incurred. For each area of interest the expenditure is recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset where the following conditions are satisfied: a) The rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and b) At least one of the following conditions is also met: (i) the expenditure is expected to be recouped through successful development and commercial exploitation of an area of interest, or alternatively by its sale; or (ii) exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not, at reporting date, reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing. Economically recoverable reserves are the estimated quantity of product in an area of interest that can be expected to be profitably extracted, processed and sold under current and foreseeable conditions. Exploration and evaluation assets include: Acquisition of rights to explore; Topographical, geological, geochemical and geophysical activities and studies; Exploratory drilling, trenching, and sampling; and Activities and studies in relation to evaluating the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the hydrocarbon resource. General and administrative costs are allocated to, and included in, the cost of exploration and evaluation assets only to the extent that those costs can be related directly to the operational activities in the area of interest to which the exploration and evaluation assets relate. In all other instances, these costs are expensed as incurred. When the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of a hydrocarbon resource has been demonstrated then any capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is reclassified as capitalised mining and project development expenditure. Prior to reclassification, capitalised exploration and evaluation

33 IPM PETROLEUM LTD AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (g) Exploration expenditure (Continued) expenditure is assessed for impairment. In the event that an area of interest is abandoned or if the Directors consider the expenditure to be of no value, accumulated costs carried forward are written off in the year in which that assessment is made. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. Impairment testing of exploration and evaluation assets Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability or facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment when any of the following facts and circumstances exist: The term of exploration license in the specific area of interest has expired during the reporting period or will expire in the near future, and is not expected to be renewed; Substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of hydrocarbon resources in the specific area are not budgeted nor planned; Exploration for and evaluation of hydrocarbon resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially viable quantities of hydrocarbon resources and the decision was made to discontinue such activities in the specified area; or Sufficient data exist to indicate that, although a development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale. Where a potential impairment is indicated, an assessment is performed for each cash-generating-unit which is no larger than the area of interest. (h) Impairment Assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortised but are tested annually for impairment in accordance with AASB 136. Assets subject to annual depreciation or amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances arise that indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is noted in accordance with AASB 6, paragraph 19, for the purposes of exploration and evaluation assets only, paragraph 20 of AASB 6 shall be applied (as outlined above) rather than paragraphs 8-17 of AASB 136, except as limited by cash generating unit / operating segment limitations

34 IPM PETROLEUM LTD AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (i) Leases Leases are classified at their inception as either operating or finance leases based on the economic substance of the agreement so as to reflect the risks and benefits incidental to ownership. Operating leases Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term. (j) Borrowing costs Borrowing costs can include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings, ancillary costs incurred in connection with arrangement of borrowings, foreign exchange losses net of hedged amounts on borrowings. Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred. (k) Goods and services tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. (l) Comparatives Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year disclosures.
