Subject: [AGA SC] 2003 financials -- 2004
budget
Hi all --
Enclosed is the financial report for 2003, and
the budget for 2004. A few comments, please
1) We ended up with a ($2,664) loss for FY
2003.
2) Had we not paid for some of the 2002
convention (the disputed portion that was not settled at the end of 2002) we
would have made a profit in 2003.
3) Our cash position is about what it was the end
of 2002 -- we seem to have stemmed the bleeding. This was due to a) Kathy
getting the payments from our advertisers and 2) AGA's share of the profit
from the 2003 convention, much of which we can thank Scott for. Way to go
guys.
For the budget for 2004 I have
assumed:
1) A modest increase in membership
revenue
2) No revenue from the 2004
convention
3) A savings of $2,000 per issue on the last 3
TAGs of the year.
Based on that we should make a small profit in
2004. Fortunately we are non-profit.
Please feel free to play around with the budget
numbers -- that's the beauty of a spreadsheet.
Please let me know what you think.
Take care,
David
