17. Economic Dependence

Sipeknekatik receives a significant portion of its revenue pursuant to a funding
agreement with
Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada and other federal government
agencies.
16
S IPEKNEKATIK
MARCH 31, 2015
1$.
Contingent
Liabilities
Sipeknekatik has entered into contribution agreements with various federal and provincial government
partners. Funding received under these contribution agreements is subject to repayment if the First
Nation fails to comply with the terms and conditions of the agreements. The likelihood of compliance
revies and any potential findings are not determinable as at the date on the auditors report.
Subsidy assistance payments received through Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation pursuant to
Section 56.1 of the National Housing Act are subject to repayment if the First Nation fails to comply with
the terms and conditions of the agreement. As at March 31, 2015, the First Nation has not fully complied
with all the terms and conditions including its failure to calculate rent-to-income in accordance with sub
paragraph 2(5) of the Operating Agreement and its failure to maintain the required replacement reserve.
To the best of managements knowledge, the entity will not have to repay any of the subsidy assistance
payments received and thus, no amount has been recorded to reflect this potential liability.
hi addition, in the normal course of its operations. the First Nation becomes involved in legal actions.
Some of these potential liabilities may become actual liabilities when one or more future events occurs or
fail to occur. To the extent that the future event is likely to occur, and a reasonable estimate of the loss
can he made. an estimated liability is accrued and an expense recorded on the First Nations financial
statements.
When the future event and/or ability to estimate involves more uncertainty, the action or claim is
considered a contingent liability.
19. Other Matters

As a result of financial concerns and irregularities. Chief and Council of Sipeknekatik engaged a firm to
carry out a forensic audit, which commenced May, 2012.
In part. the firm is to review certain financial transactions in particular any that were not properly
authorized. including hut not limited to the following amounts included in Note 7:
Due from MRJJ Management Inc. $ 59,200
Due from Amcrest Management Inc. 172,200
Unapproved transfers
306,000
The First Nation has made a claim to its insurer for a potential recovery. The likelihood and
recovery are both unknown at this time.

a maximum of

22. Financial Instruments Risks and Uncertainties
The First Nation is exposed to the following risks in respect of certain of the financial instruments held:
Credit risk
The financial instruments that potentially subject the First Nation to a significant concentration of credit
risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.
The First Nation maintains cash balances with Canadian chartered banks which is insured by the Canada
Deposit Insurance Corporation up to CDN $100,000. From time to time, these balances exceed the
federall\ insured limits and expose the First Nation to credit risk from concentration of cash. The First
\ation limits this risk by transacting with reputable financial institutions.
The First Nation does have credit risk in accounts receivable $989.735 (2014- $1,281,766), Credit risk is
the risk that one party to a transaction will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to
incur a financial loss. The First Nation reduces its exposure to credit risk by performing valuations on a
regular basis and creating an allowance for bad debts when applicable. The First Nation derives
substantially all of its revenues and therefore, accounts receivable, from government sources. In the
opinion of management. the credit risk exposure to the First Nation is low and is not material.
Liquidity risk
The First Nation does have a liquidity risk in the accounts payable and accrued liabilities of S5693.1 17
(2014 $6,635,807). Liquidity risk is the risk that the First Nation cannot repay its obligations when they
become due to its creditors. The First Nation reduces its exposure to liquidity risk by ensuring that it
documents when authorized payments become due.
-
Interest rate risk

The First Nation is exposed to interest rate risk. This risk exists due to interest rate exposure on certain
term loans, which are variable based on the banks prime rates. This exposure may have an effect on its
interest expenses in future periods. The First Nation reduces its exposure to interest rate risk by regularly
monitoring published bank prime interest rates which have been relatively stable over the period
presented. There are some loans payable that are at fixed term rates and therefore, do not affect interest
rate risk. The First Nation does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.
In the opinion of management the interest rate risk exposure to the First Nation is low and is not material.

review engagements and, accordingly, consisted primarily of enquiry, analytical procedures and
discussion related to information supplied to us by the First Nation.
