Notes on budget

  1. I consider this a balanced budget.
  2. Forecast figures are largely based on actual figures for FY2009 “with the bumps taken out” (anticipated carnival income has been reduced from that of FY2009; electricity costs have been increased by the recent rate hike); I will continue to show last years period-to-date figures on monthly reports because—
    • if we spend/accumulate funds at or below last years rate we will end the year with a net increase to the bank (or, perhaps, no decrease);
    • it is relatively easy to do (rather than try to accumulate budget amounts for each line item for each month and account for seasonality).
  3. Gaming (specifically, pull tab) income is not shown. I will also continue to graph net cash flow based on actual amounts, but to forecast without pull-tab monies. This is a safe, conservative approach.
  4. [Fron last year’s budget notes] Should we continue to receive income from pull-tabs we will end the year with a very healthy bank balance. A procedure has been developed to help prioritize any spending of “surplus”.
  5. A budget is a planning tool. Just because an amount exists in the budget for some activity does not mean you are entitled to spend that money.
  6. This budget will be presented for final approval by the Board next May (Bylaws VI.1.D.5).

Notes on actual

  1. We met budget on everything except Fund Raising. Both Oktoberfest and Carnival proceeds were below that expected, resulting in a “loss” for the year;
  2. When gaming revenue’s are included we actually showed an increase of ~$5K for FY2010 (after accounting for the “SWM” program).
