Sunshine Beach Ltd has five employees. According to their particular employment award, long-service leave can be taken after 15 years, at which time the employee is entitled to 13 weeks' leave. If the employee leaves before completing the 15 years' service, there will be no entitlement to leave, or to a cash payment in lieu of leave. The names of the employees, their current salaries and their years of service as at the end of the reporting period are as follows:

The provision for long-service leave as at the beginning of the reporting period is $20 900. High-quality corporate bonds exist with periods to maturity that exactly match the various periods that must still be served by the employees before LSL entitlements vest with them. These bond rates are as follows:
