27 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) (B) INTEREST RATE RISK - CONSOLIDATED The Group’s exposure to interest rate risks and the effective interest rates of financial assets (excluding investments in controlled entities and associates) and financial liabilities are as follows: Financial Instrument Floating Interest Rate Non-Interest Bearing Total 30 June 2024 $ 30 June 2023 $ 30 June 2024 $ 30 June 2023 $ 30 June 2024 $ 30 June 2023 $ (i) Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents 9,233,192 7,812,511 – – 9,233,192 7,812,511 Trade and other receivables – – 1,274,097 1,193,007 1,274,097 1,193,007 Total financial assets 9,233,192 7,812,511 1,274,097 1,193,007 10,507,289 9,005,518 (ii) Financial Liabilities Trade and other payables – – 920,527 787,796 920,527 787,796 Total financial liabilities – – 920,527 787,796 920,527 787,796 A reasonably possible change in interest rates would not have a material impact on the financial position or performance of the Group. (C) FAIR VALUES The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are an approximate estimation of their carrying value in the Statement of Financial Position. The fair values have been determined based on the following methodologies: - Cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, and trade and other payables are short term instruments in nature whose carrying value is equivalent to fair value. (D) CREDIT RISK The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date in relation to each class of recognised financial asset is the carrying amount, net of any allowance for expected credit loss, of those assets as indicated in the Statement of Financial Position. Exposure arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group. Credit risk is managed through maintaining procedures ensuring, to the extent possible, that members and counterparties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness. Credit risk exposures Cash reserves form the majority of the Group’s financial assets. At 30 June 2024, cash was deposited with two financial institutions, including one large Australian bank and a U.S. bank account maintained with a Canadian bank. At 30 June 2024, the Group did not have a material credit risk exposure to a single trade debtor. (E) LIQUIDITY RISK Liquidity risk arises from the financial liabilities of the Group and the subsequent ability to meet the obligations to repay the financial liabilities as and when they fall due. The Group’s objective is to maintain consistency of funding via the raising of equity or short-term loans as and when required. All liabilities are contractually due and payable in the next six months. (F) FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The functional currency of the parent entity is Australian dollars. The Group contains one foreign subsidiary, INOVIQ INC, which is domiciled in the U.S. This exposes the Group to foreign exchange risk arising from fluctuations of the Australian dollar against the United States Dollar. The exposure to risks is measured using sensitivity analysis and cash flow forecasting. Notes to the Financial Statements continued for the year ended 30 June 2024 60 INOVIQ Limited
