Ian Short provides a few comments on the Treasurer’s Report presented to the 2000 AGM.
The figures presented here have been rounded out to the nearest $100 dollars to make them more user friendly and represent the balance as at 31 December 2000.
The situation was that we had $4200 in our cheque account,and $27,000 in our term deposit. and we had income over expenditure of $220.
Our income of $12,000 came mainly from: Membership subscriptions $9,600, Sales $500, and Profit on conference 1999 $1,600.
Most of our payments related to costs involved in the Skeptic newsletter production. $10,200.
This means that our finances are in a very satisfactory shape. We are working within our income but using just about all of it on Skeptic business. The term deposit means that we have some money available to help with extra opportunities as they occur, e.g. a possible visit by James Randi.
Ian Short, Treasurer.
