Management determines the recoverable amount of cash generating units as being the higher of net selling price or value in use. In the absence of an active market, value in use is used to determine the recoverable amount. A traditional method of discounting management’s best estimate of future cash flows attributable to the cash generating unit has been applied to determine the value in use. A growth rate has been applied to cash flow streams to take into account the effect of inflation.

Assumptions used in the determination of the discount rate are as follows:

Prime rate (risk free rate) 10.5% as at 30 June 2016.
A market risk premium of 5.8% is justified as the overall risk is to the downside.

(Please note that the inputs above were adjusted for geographical and entity specific risk).

The table below indicates the variables used in the determination of the discounted cash flows for the separate business units.

Note 1: All companies within the Group approximate the Group’s WACC. As the Group is debt free, the WACC will approximate the return on equity.
Note 2: Based on the long tenure of current contracts with our clients which span more than 20 years with the Group. A forecast period of 10 years is considered reasonable.
Note 3: Growth rates are based on current consumer price indicators and membership growth.

The net present value of forecasts support the carrying value of the goodwill indicated above.
