Total assets were $2.8 million at the end of 2009–2010, a decrease of $0.4 million (11.3%) over the previous year's total assets of $3.1 million. Tangible capital assets represented $2.4 million (88%), prepaid expenses represented $0.2 million (6%), while inventory and accounts receivable represented 4% and 2% respectively of total assets.
The Agency's total revenues amounted to $123,737 for 2009–2010. There was a large increase of $50,268 (68.4%) from the previous year's revenue due to an increase in penalties. Almost all of the Agency's revenue is derived from two sources: penalties (fines) imposed on air carriers and transportation facilities ($103,447), and determining the net salvage value of railway assets during the discontinuance of a railway line ($20,065). All other levels of revenue were marginal for 2009–2010.
Total liabilities were $8.1 million at the end of 2009–2010, an increase of $0.7 million (8.8%) over the previous year's total liabilities of $7.4 million. Employee severance benefits and accounts payable represented the largest portion of total liabilities at $5.1 million and $1.9 million respectively.
The Agency's total expenses were $33.2 million in 2009–2010. The majority of funds, $26 million or 78%, were spent on salaries and employee benefits, 7% on professional services, 6% on accommodation and the remaining 9% going towards repair and maintenance, rentals, materials and supplies, and machinery and equipment.
