• C) Museums should present a schedule of the nature and type of the heritage asset held and a summary of the cost to maintain the collection in its current condition. Disclosures about the amounts received from the sale of items and grants received should be provided as well as a statement of the number of items purchased and their cost.
• D) Museums should present a summary statement showing how grants received and the proceeds from items sold during the period were allocated to the purchase of additional items and the maintenance of the existing collection. Amounts spent on administration and other overheads should be separately detailed to the extent that they are material.
