Section III - Supplementary Information
Financial Highlights
The highlights presented in this section are intended to serve as a general overview of NRCan’s operations. Future-oriented financial statements are prepared on an accrual basis and the intent is to strengthen accountability and improve transparency.
The variances between the figures presented in this section and the planned spending amounts provided in other sections of the RPP are the result of the exclusion of items such as non-respendable revenues, services without charge received from other government departments, amortization, and adjustments to liabilities (environmental liabilities, vacation pay, compensatory leave and employee future benefits). Also, statutory payments related to the employer's portion of the Employee Benefit Plan are included in the following figures, but not in the planned spending.
