PRESIDENTIAL COMMISSION ON GOOD GOVERNMENT

Notes to Financial Statements


For the Year Ended December 31, 2022

1. GENERAL INFORMATION/AGENCY PROFILE

The financial statements (FS) of the Presidential Commission on Good Government


(PCGG), herein referred to as the Commission, were authorized for issue on February
14, 2023 as shown in the Statement of Management Responsibility for Financial
Statements signed by Chairperson John A. Agbayani.

1.1 The Commission was created by Executive Order (EO) No. 1 issued on February
28, 1986, by Her Excellency, President Corazon C. Aquino.

Its role as a catalyst to enhance the recovery of ill-gotten wealth was strengthened
further by the issuance of EO No. 2 on March 12, 1986, EO No. 13 on April 23,
1986 and EO No. 14 on May 7, 1986.

1.2 The Commission was established to assist the President as regards to the
following matters:

a. The recovery of ill-gotten wealth accumulated during the Marcos regime.


For this purpose, “ill-gotten wealth” is defined as an asset, property,
business enterprise or material possession amassed by former President
Ferdinand E. Marcos, his immediate family, relatives and close associates,
whether located in the Philippines or abroad, directly or through nominees
or dummies, by taking undue advantage of their public office and/or using
their powers, authority, influence, connection or relationship;

b. The investigation of such cases of graft and corruption as the President may
assign to the Commission from time to time; and

c. The adoption of safeguards to ensure that the above practices shall not be
repeated in any manner under the new government, and the institution of
adequate measures to prevent the occurrence of corruption.

1.3 The Commission maintains four separate books of account for the following
funds:

a. Fund 101 which comprises the appropriation by the National Government


(NG) for its general administration and support services.

b. Fund 151 which comprises the appropriation for administration of assets as


provided under its Special Provision No. 1 in the General Appropriations
Act (GAA).

11
c. Fund 158 which comprises monies it recovered from the sale of ill-gotten
wealth and its remittances to the Bureau of the Treasury (BTr) intended for
the use of the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP).

d. Fund 184 comprises collections and disbursements/disposition of funds


pertaining to the sequestered assets of the “Marcos Cronies” which shall be
kept in its custody pending the resolution of appropriate court
proceedings/cases in the Philippines.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND BASIS OF PREPARATION OF


FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The FS have been prepared in accordance with the International Public Sector
Accounting Standards (IPSAS) pursuant to Commission on Audit (COA) Resolution
No. 2020-001 dated January 9, 2020.

The FS have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, unless stated otherwise. The
Statement of Cash Flow (SCF) is prepared using the direct method.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

3.1 Basis of accounting

The FS are prepared on an accrual basis in accordance with the IPSAS.

3.2 Financial instruments

a. Financial Assets (FAs)

Initial recognition and measurement

FAs within the scope of IPSAS 29 - Financial Instruments: Recognition


and Measurement are classified as FAs at fair value through surplus or
deficit, held-to-maturity investments, loans and receivables or available-
for-sale FAs, as appropriate. The Commission determines the classification
of its FAs at initial recognition.

Purchases or sales of FAs that require delivery of assets within a time frame
established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way
trades) are recognized on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Commission
commits to purchase or sell the asset.

The Commission’s FAs include cash and trade and other receivables.

12
Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of FAs depends on their classification.

Derecognition

The Commission derecognizes a FA or, where applicable, a part of a FA or


part of similar FAs when:

 The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or is
waived; and/or

 It has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has
assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without
material delay to a third party; and either: (a) it has transferred
substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset; or (b) it has neither
transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the
asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

Impairment of FAs

The Commission assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective


evidence that a FA or a group of FAs is impaired. A FA or a group of FAs
is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of
impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the
initial recognition of the asset (an incurred “loss event”) and that loss event
has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the FA or the group of
FAs that can be reliably estimated.

b. Financial Liabilities (FLs)

Initial recognition and measurement

FLs within the scope of IPSAS 29 are classified as FLs at fair value through
surplus or deficit or loans and borrowings, as appropriate. The group
determines the classification of its FLs at initial recognition.

All FLs are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and
borrowings, plus directly attributable transaction costs.

The Commission’s FLs includes trade and other payables.

Subsequent measurement

The measurement of FLs depends on their classification.

13
Derecognition

A FL is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged


or cancelled or expired.

When an existing FL is replaced by another from the same lender on


substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are
substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a
derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability,
and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in
surplus or deficit.

3.3 Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand (COH) and cash in bank
(CIB), deposits on call and highly liquid investments with an original maturity
of three months or less, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash
and are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purpose of the
consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consists of
cash and short-term deposits as defined above, net of outstanding bank
overdrafts.

3.4 Receivables

Receivables are initially measured at fair value. Subsequently, they are


measured at amortized cost which is the initial recognition minus principal
repayments, minus any reduction for impairment or uncollectibility.
Impairment loss is recognized in surplus or deficit.

3.5 Inventories

Inventory is measured at cost upon initial recognition. To the extent that


inventory was received through non-exchange transactions (for no cost or for a
nominal cost), the cost of the inventory is its fair value at the date of acquisition.

After initial recognition, inventory is measured at the lower of cost and net
realizable value. However, to the extent that a class of inventory is distributed
or deployed at no charge or for a nominal charge, that class of inventory is
measured at the lower of cost and current replacement cost.

Inventories are recognized as an expense when deployed for utilization or


consumption in the ordinary course of operations of the Commission.

14
3.6 Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)

Recognition

An item is recognized as PPE if it meets the characteristics and recognition


criteria as PPE.

The characteristics of PPE are as follows:

 tangible items;
 are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for
rental to others, or for administrative purposes; and
 are expected to be used during more than one reporting period.

An item of PPE is recognized as an asset if:

 It is probable that future economic benefits or service potential


associated with the item will flow to the entity; and
 The cost or fair value of the item can be measured reliably.

Measurement at Recognition

An item recognized as PPE is measured at cost.

A PPE acquired through non-exchange transaction is measured at its fair


value as at the date of acquisition.

The cost of the PPE is the cash price equivalent or, for PPE acquired
through non-exchange transaction its cost is its fair value as at recognition
date.

Cost includes the following:

 its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase


taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates;
 expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items;
and
 initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and
restoring the site on which it is located, the obligation for which an
entity incurs either when the item is acquired, or as a consequence of
having used the item during a particular period for purposes other than
to produce inventories during that period.

15
Measurement After Recognition

After recognition, all PPE are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses.

When significant parts of PPE are required to be replaced at intervals, the


Commission recognizes such parts as individual assets with specific useful
lives and depreciates it accordingly. Likewise, when a major repair/
replacement is done, its cost is recognized at a carrying amount of the PPE as
a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repairs and
maintenance costs are recognized as expense in surplus or deficit as incurred.

Depreciation

Each part of an item of PPE with a cost that is significant in relation to the total
cost of the item is depreciated separately.

The depreciation charge for each period is recognized as expense unless it is


included in the cost of another asset.

Initial Recognition of Depreciation

Depreciation of an asset begins when it is available for use such as when it is


in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the
manner intended by management.

For simplicity and to avoid proportionate computation, the depreciation is for


one month if the PPE is available for use on or before the 15th of the month.
However, if the PPE is available for use after the 15th of the month,
depreciation is for the succeeding month.

Depreciation Method

The straight-line method of depreciation shall be adopted unless another


method is more appropriate for the agency operation.

Estimated Useful Life

The Commission uses the Schedule on the Estimated Useful Life of PPE by
classification prepared by COA.

The Commission uses a residual value equivalent to at least five percent of the
cost of the PPE.

16
Impairment

An asset’s carrying amount is written down to its recoverable amount, or


recoverable service amount, if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its
estimated recoverable service amount.

Derecognition

The Commission derecognizes items of PPE and/or any significant part of an


asset upon disposal or when no future economic benefits or service potential is
expected from its continuing use. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of
the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and
the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the surplus or deficit when the
asset is derecognized.

3.7 Intangible Assets

Recognition and Measurement

Intangible assets are recognized when the items are identifiable non-monetary
assets without physical substance; it is probable that the expected future
economic benefits or service potential that are attributable to the assets will
flow to the entity; and the cost or fair value of the assets can be measured
reliably.

Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognized at cost.

If payment for an intangible asset is deferred beyond normal credit terms, its
cost is the cash price equivalent. The difference between this amount and the
total payments is recognized as interest expense over the period of credit unless
it is capitalized in accordance with the capitalization treatment permitted in
IPSAS 5, Borrowing Costs.

Subsequent Expenditure on an Acquired In-process Research and


Development Project

Subsequent expenditure on an in-process research or development project


acquired separately and recognized as an intangible asset is:

 Recognized as an expense when incurred if it is research expenditure;


 Recognized as an expense when incurred if it is development expenditure
that does not satisfy the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset; and
 Added to the carrying amount of the acquired in-process research or
development project if it is development expenditure that satisfies the
recognition criteria for intangible assets.

17
Intangible Assets Acquired through Non-Exchange Transactions (NET)

The cost of intangible assets acquired in a NET is their fair value at the date
these were acquired.

Internally Generated Intangible Assets

Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalized development


costs, are not capitalized and expenditure is reflected in surplus or deficit in the
period in which the expenditure is incurred.

Recognition of an Expense

Expenditure on an intangible item shall be recognized as an expense when it is


incurred unless it forms part of the cost of an intangible asset that meets the
recognition criteria of an intangible asset.

Subsequent Measurement

The useful life of the intangible assets is assessed as either finite or indefinite.
Intangible assets with a finite life are amortized over its useful life.

The straight-line method is adopted in the amortization of the expected pattern


of consumption of the expected future economic benefits or service potential.

An intangible asset with indefinite useful life shall not be amortized. Intangible
assets with indefinite useful lives or an intangible asset not yet available for use
are assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the asset may
be impaired.

The amortization period and the amortization method, for an intangible asset
with a finite useful life, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period.
Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of
future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the
amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in
accounting estimates. The amortization expense on an intangible asset with a
finite life is recognized in surplus or deficit as the expense category that is
consistent with the nature of the intangible asset.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured


as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of
the asset and are recognized in the surplus or deficit when the asset is
derecognized.

Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any
accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.

18
Amortization of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset
is available for use.

It is amortized over the period of expected future benefit.

During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually
with any impairment losses recognized immediately in surplus or deficit.

3.8 Changes in Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Commission recognizes the effects of changes in accounting policy


retrospectively. The effects of changes in accounting policy are applied
prospectively if retrospective application is impractical.

It recognizes the effects of changes in accounting estimates prospectively by


including in surplus or deficit.

The agency corrects material prior period errors retrospectively in the first set
of financial statements authorized for issue after their discovery by:

 Restating the comparative amounts for prior period(s) presented in which


the error occurred; or
 If the error occurred before the earliest prior period presented, restating the
opening balances of assets, liabilities and net assets/equity for the earliest
prior period presented.

3.9 Foreign Currency Transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognized by applying the spot


exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency of the
transaction.

At each reporting date:

 Foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate;
 Nonmonetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign
currency shall be translated using the exchange rate at the date of the
transaction; and
 Nonmonetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency
shall be translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value
was determined.

Exchange differences arising (a) on the settlement of monetary items, or (b) on


translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were
translated on initial recognition during the period or in previous FS, are

19
recognized in surplus or deficit in the period in which they arise, except as those
arising on a monetary item that forms part of a reporting entity’s net investment
in a foreign operation.

3.10 Revenue from Exchange Transactions

Measurement of Revenue

Revenue shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or


receivable.

Sale of Goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when the significant risks and
rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, usually on delivery
of the goods and when the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and it
is probable that the economic benefits or service potential associated with the
transaction will flow to the Commission.

Interest income

Interest income is accrued using the effective yield method. The effective yield
discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the FA to
that asset’s net carrying amount. The method applies this yield to the principal
outstanding to determine interest income each period.

3.11 Budget information

The annual budget is prepared on a cash basis and is published in the


government website.

As a result of the adoption of the cash basis for budgeting purposes, a separate
Statement of Comparison of Budget and Actual Amounts (SCBAA) was
presented showing the basis, timing or entity differences. Explanatory
comments are provided in the notes to the annual FS: first, the reasons for
overall growth or decline in the budget are stated, followed by details of
overspending or underspending on line items.

3.12 Related Parties

The Commission regards a related party as a person or an entity with the ability
to exert control individually or jointly, or to exercise significant influence over
it, or vice versa.

Members of key management were regarded as related parties such as: the
Acting Chairperson, Commissioners, and Directors.

20
3.13 Employee Benefits

The employees of the Commission are members of the Government Service


Insurance System (GSIS), which provides life and retirement insurance
coverage.

It recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits, like


salaries, wages, bonuses, allowance, etc., as expense unless capitalized, and as
a liability after deducting the amount paid.

It recognizes expenses for accumulating compensated absences when these are


paid (commuted or paid as terminal leave benefits). Unused entitlements that
have accumulated at the reporting date are not recognized as expense. Non-
accumulating compensated absences, like special leave privileges, are not
recognized.

3.14 Measurement Uncertainty

The preparation of FS in conformity with IPSAS, requires management to


make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting amounts of assets and
liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the
FS and the reported amounts of the revenues and expenses during the period.
Items requiring the use of significant estimates include the useful life of capital
assets, estimated employee benefits, rates for amortization, impairment of
assets, liability for contaminated sites, etc.

Estimates are based on the best information available at the time of preparation
of the FS and are reviewed annually to reflect new information as it becomes
available. Measurement uncertainty exists in these FS. Actual results could
differ from these estimates.

4. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In March 2014, the Commission adopted IPSAS Nos. 1 to 24, which replaced the
existing standard. The new standard includes requirements for recognition,
measurement, presentation and disclosure of accounts and is effective for years
beginning January 1, 2014. This accounting change had no significant impact on its
consolidated FS.

In CY 2022, the Commission availed the one-time cleansing of PPE account balances
pursuant to COA Circular No. 2020-006 dated January 31, 2020. On May 31, 2022, the
COA also issued guidelines, per COA Circular No. 2022-004, relative to the increase in
the capitalization threshold from ₱15,000.00 to ₱50,000.00, which has an impact on the
one-time cleansing of PPE activity conducted.

21
5. PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENTS

The Commission has determined that prior years’ errors were committed as a result of
a change in accounting policy, an oversight of computation, together with various
unrecorded income and expenses due to unavailability of information at that time the FS
were authorized for issue. Details are as follows:

 Restatement of the Opening Balance of the Accumulated Surplus

Various errors in recording of transactions for CY 2021 and below were determined
during the year. As a result, the balance of the Accumulated Surplus as of January 1,
2022 is restated as follows:

with land areas totaling 356,005 square meters. From these five titles, 113,870
square meters under TCT No. T-81835 was placed under CARP coverage
which was already dropped from the PCGG books of accounts. The PCGG
has no copy in possession for the remaining 1,279,258 square meters under
TCT No. T-163207. PIEDRAS has recommended the filing of a petition in
court for the reconstitution/replacement of the lost title but this cannot be
acted upon since the property has also been placed under CARP coverage.
There is a pending Motion for Reconsideration filed by PIEDRAS in April
2019 with the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) for exemption of said
land from CARP.

Accounting Division, Surrendered Assets Group, and IRC Group of
Corporations. The PCGG will issue an IRR/ Policy on the implementation for
