Before accepting any new member, the Club will assess the potential member’s credit
quality and define credit limits for each of the member. Limits attributed to members are
reviewed periodically.
Included in the Club’s members balances are receivables with a carrying amount of
$308,823 (2016 : $357,421) which are past due at the end of the reporting date for
which the Club has not made any allowance for doubtful debts as there has not been
a significant change in credit quality and the amounts are still considered recoverable.
These receivables are mainly arising from members that have good records with the
Club and have placed minimum required deposits.
(ii) These amounts are stated before any deductions for impairment losses.
