[Lnc-business] Fwd: EOM Financials Dec 2013

Some questions with regard to the EOM Financials:

 

1.  My rudimentary knowledge of accrual accounting and GAAP tells me that, operationally (i.e. sans restricted funds and expenses), in 2013 we spent $83,082 more than we received.  Would the Treasurer please confirm this result in a rather clear definitive manner?  I got this number by subtracting what appeared to be restricted funds from the revenue side and restricted fund raising expenses from the expense side.  ($143,404 – 247,319 + 20,833)  Please advise what the real 2013 operational bottom line is.

2.  Our basic source of operating revenue (lines 20 thru 23: generally unrestricted revenues) for 2013 appear to me to be $177,612.95 less than budgeted. Our 2014 budget is based on increases (8%) in these (now) prior year numbers.  Are we not skating on some rather thin ice?

3.  The Chair is rightly concerned about the difficulty of creating and managing special projects.  We could not allocate budgetary funds for fighting Top Two because it was not a project.  Yet I see budget/revenue/and expense lines for Radio Ad Project and Legal Offense Fund.  Is there some double standard in play here? Who gets to create budget lines for projects?  Why is it that we can’t we have one for fighting Top Two?
