The actual expenditure for 2014 amounted to CAD 102 256 000. Since 2010, Member States are invoiced partly in USD and partly in CAD. The USD/CAD exchange rate on 1 January 2015 (the date when invoices were raised in USD) was higher than the rate used in developing the 2014 budget, causing an addition to total assessed contributions of CAD 5 615 000. In addition, there was a revaluation of balance sheet items due to a net currency exchange gain of CAD 2 993 000. The net gain (CAD 8 608 000) has been allocated to actual expenditures (CAD 102 256 000) in order to restate them to the budget rate of exchange, which amounts to CAD 93 648 000
