I'm not clear yet on the revs and costs for the Banquet. SOne of the rev figures in Ivo's sheet doesn't work out mathematically -- he appears to overstate the Banquet revenues ( 131*39=$5,109 not the reported $5,249). Banqs actually cost $50.05 each including tax and gratuituies. Recall that we charged $39 for the Banqs instead of $49 and upped the reg fees $10 to compensate. The diff between 131 banquets at a cost of -$50.05 each and the dollar amount Ivo shows ($7,250.00) amounts a diff of $693.45 or about 14 more banquets -- presumably comped banqs. Btw, in 2003 we comped banqs only for speakers and workshop leaders and had 13 comped banquets. In 2003 Banq revs were $2,905 and banq costs were -$3,430.36 -- a diff of -$525.36. I thought there were fewer this year -- I've asked Ivo to explain the banquet numbers. I'm guessing the banquet cost is just the amount on the hotel bill and possibly no one checked if it was the right number of meals and price OR they really had 14 comped banquets. As for the banq revs--I think Ivo just erred in the count or the price extension. sh --- Kathy Olson <kathy@thekrib.com> wrote:as Erik and I have talked about, how did we LOOSE MONEY at the banquet. I thought they had enough to break even. Sounds like the hotel got away with something, or something went really weird. How do they explain that? Kathy On Thu, 30 Dec 2004, S.

But the corrected Ivo numbers nclude the amounts paidtoTomoko and costs borne by AGA after the convention including Ray. The AGA amounts are included as deductions from thefinaldisbursement according to the instructions I sent him.TheI held back about $650 in AGA2K4 monies and the amountsAGApaid to Ray and for shipping costs incurred after the convention were deducted from that amount. So we were credited with holding back a smaller amount that $650.InIvo's sheet this shows up as amount already disburesedtoAGA. --- Cheryl Rogers <cheryl@wilstream.com> wrote:Does this include the convention expenses that youpaidto Ray and Tomoko?

First, expenses were overstated by $804.06, whichmadenetrevenues appear understated by the same amount. However, in investigating this error, Ivo reportedthattheAuction revenue amount included the raffle and someotheramounts such that it overstated auction sales byabout$700. After those changes, the net effect is that Ivo nowreportsthe following: Total Expenses (20,066.55) Total Revenues $24,113.00 Total Net $4,046.46 Amount to GWAPA $2,023.23 Amount to AGA $2,023.23 This amounts to an additional $26.03 due each clubcomparedto the previously reported amount. I can send a revised version of Ivo's finance sheetifanyone wants it but I'm making up my own and, ofcourse, Isuggest you wait (maybe a day) for that one. sh _______________________________________________ AGA-sc mailing list AGA-sc@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/aga-sc-- Cheryl Rogers, Membership Aquatic Gardeners Association http://www.aquatic-gardeners.org _______________________________________________ AGA-sc mailing list AGA-sc@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/aga-sc_______________________________________________ AGA-sc mailing list AGA-sc@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/aga-sc_______________________________________________ AGA-sc mailing list AGA-sc@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/aga-sc_______________________________________________ AGA-sc mailing list AGA-sc@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/aga-sc
