Section 1 - Purchases
Explanation: The aim of this section is to collect information on those purchases from overseas of vessels and aircraft which constitute imports, but which are not
included in external trade statistics. Also, timing adjustments to the external trade statistics may be required in that the recording in external trade statistics (based on
customs entries) is not necessarily equivalent to the change of ownership convention adopted for balance of payments statistics.
Instructions:
1.
Cost of delivery is only required for vessels and aircraft handed over in New Zealand.
2.
Purchase price excludes delivery costs.

Section 3 - Progress/Post Payments
Explanation: A progress payment occurs when an importer makes an instalment payment to the supplier of a capital good before possession of the good is taken.
Therefore, in balance of payments statistics, a progress payment from New Zealand represents an increase in overseas assets.
A post payment occurs when an importer makes an instalment payment to the supplier of a capital good after possession of the good has been taken. Therefore, in
balance of payments statistics, a post payment from New Zealand represents a decrease in overseas liabilities.
Instructions:
1.
Record all progress payments and post payments separately.

Definitions
The definitions below are from the New Zealand Society of Accountants’ SSAP-18 “Accounting for Leases
and Hire Purchase Contracts”.
Lease: an agreement whereby the lessor conveys to the lessee in return for rent, the right to use an asset
for an agreed period of time.
Finance lease: a lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incident to ownership of an
asset to the lessee. Title may or may not eventually be transferred. This definition of a finance lease
includes contracts for the hire of assets which contain a provision transferring title to the asset upon the
fulfilment of agreed conditions.
Operating lease: a lease other than a finance lease.
Inception of the lease: the earlier of the date of the lease agreement or of commitment by the parties to
the principal provisions of the lease.
Lease term: the non-cancellable period for which the lessee has contracted to lease the asset. Also to be
included are any further terms for which the lessee has the option to continue to lease the asset, with or
without further payment, when, at the inception of the lease, it is reasonably certain that the lessee will
exercise the option.
Instructions
Please refer to these instructions when completing the four tables in this section.

a)
If the vessel or aircraft is operated domestically, ie only in one country, please name the country.
