Interpretation
 
In Part 1 and Part 2 of this Schedule
 
 
calculated 30 June ROR means the ROR as at 30 June, (or, in the case only of the Victorian Independent Schools Superannuation Fund, as at 31 July) calculated by APRA in accordance with the ROR Methodology set out below.
ROR is short for rate of return.
ROR publication means APRA’s publication Superannuation Fund Level Rates of Return.
ROR Methodology:
 
ROR is calculated as:          ROR =      Net earnings after tax
Cash flow adjusted net assets
 
For superannuation funds with a non-30 June balance date, the calculated 30 June ROR will be calculated using annual (SRF 200.0) and quarterly (SRF 100.0) return data.
 
It is important to note that net earnings after tax and net flows data is reported on a year-to- date (YTD) basis in the quarterly returns. Additionally, the beginning net assets will be taken from the net assets at the end of the reporting period (SRF 100.0, item 23 + SRF 100.0, item
23.1) as reported in the quarterly return for period end 30 June of the previous financial year.
 
Below is an example of how the ROR at 30 June 2012 will be calculated for a fund with a 31
December balance date:
 
 
Balance Date
Net earnings after tax                                    (YTD 30 June)
Beginning net assets for period end 30 Jun-11
Net flows                                  (YTD 30 June)

31 December
Annual return for period end 31
December 2011
less
Quarterly return YTD
data to 30 Jun 2011
plus
Quarterly return YTD
data to 30 June 2012
Net assets at the end of the reporting period as reported in the quarterly return for
period end 30 Jun 2011
(SRF 100.0, item 23 + SRF 100.0, item 23.1).
Annual return for period end 31
December 2011
less
Quarterly return YTD
data to 30 Jun 2011
plus
Quarterly return YTD
data to 30 Jun 2012

 
 
The diagram below is a graphical representation of the methodology used to calculate YTD
data. This example shows how YTD data to 30 June 2012 is calculated for a fund with a 31
December balance date.
