Common Areas of Spend
Office Estate Area
The sum of Building Net Internal Area (NIA) for the buildings occupied by the organisation. NIA is the part of the net internal area in a building currently physically occupied by the organisation. 
This equates with an estate agent"s floor area available for letting.  It is calculated by subtracting 
the vertical ducts, structural columns, plant areas, toilets, lifts, staircases and lift lobbies from the gross internal area.  NIA is measured in sq metres.  NIA should only cover those buildings used 
as office space and for buildings over 500m2.

Departmental Cashflow Management outturns
Cashflow Management Scheme: Departments with a gross cashflow of over £3bn p.a. provide daily and monthly forecasts of their gross cash payments and receipts up to six weeks ahead. The scheme monitors the difference between the forecast and outturn and expresses the difference as a percentage variance on forecast.. Target is for the outturn to be within 5% of the forecast. The percentage variance of forecast to actual working capital.

The accounts for 2009/10 and 2010/11 have been restated due to the TV Licence Fee moving to a newTrust Statement prepared by the BBC.  Prior to the 
restatement both debtor and creditor figures included large balances for licence fees in transit.  Whilst we have both years' actual figures on the new basis, forecasts have not been adjusted. DCMS has not previously collected this information.

2009/10 PEOWP (Public Expenditure Outturn White Paper) forecast was for £63m; actual was £63.854m: variance of 1.36%   2010/11 PEOWP forecast was £64m; actual was £64.412m: variance of 0.64% The cause of variance in both years was the result of restatements by The Royal Parks agency planet) which are published two years after the reference date (2008 accounts 
were published in September 2010). This is the data that we need to examine in the account (specifically the Supply Use Tables) so we are using the most up to date data available. The TSA attempts to reconcile supply side data and demand side data and while we know that more up to date demand side data is available, for the purposes of the TSA it is important to perform this reconciliation using the same reference year i.e. 2008. Future work could use the estimates contained in the 
2008 TSA and "nowcast" the results 
based on more up to date demand data on tourism expenditure.
