2011 Budget Saskatoon Chapter Michelle Nelson
Chapter Budget Sustainability Goal • Invest in member benefits, using money already earned in previous years • Set up a formula for future years • Provide board with a starting point • As a chapter, plan profit of $2,000 per year (7%) AND reinvest in members at least $3,000 per year – without going into our reserves.
Chapter Budget Sustainability Goal • The board can choose to spend the $2,000 “profit” on a one-time expense, or saved up for several years for a big-ticket item. • Remember that we are a non-profit; while it’s good to have a rainy day fund, there’s nothing wrong with break-even spending. • 2009 profit $6,587 (but included hosting DTL) • 2010 profit would be $5,211 (we’d reserved $3,065) • We have $21,836 in our bank accounts right now – that’s a LOT for IABC standards
General Outline • Executive portfolio ends with zero balance • PD brings $5,400 net profit • Membership brings $3,080 net profit • Sponsorship brings $2,500 • Sub-total = $10,980 • Communications spends $3,000 • Operations/Finance/Treasurer spends $5,000 • Volunteer spends $980 • Profit = $2,000 (or spend – board decision) • As a chapter, plan profit of $2,000 per year (10%) AND reinvest in members at least $3,000 per year – without going into our reserves. • The board can choose to spend the $2,000 “profit” on a one-time expense, or saved up for several years for a big-ticket item. Remember that we are a non-profit; while it’s good to have a rainy day fund, there’s nothing wrong with break-even spending.
Executive Revenue and Expenses • $7,150 from previous years (based on Jodie’s formula), call that the “Executive Revenue” • Add money obtained from International IABC Grants (for Leadership Institute and Dare to Lead) • Allocate all of that towards member benefits • At the end of 2011, the Executive Budget will be $0 • Start 2012 by taking 90% of the REVENUE earned by the portfolios in 2011, adding the grant money, and that’s what the Executive will spend in 2012 on member benefits
Portfolios Professional Development • 2009: $21,543 - $15,690 = profit $5,853 (27%) • 2010: $13,771 - $8,745 = profit $5,026 (36%) • 2011: $18,000 - $12,600 = profit $5,400 (30%) • Luncheons in February, May, and October • Workshops in April and November • Decide on profit margins, rates, events
Portfolios Membership • 2009: $2,430 from dues; $1,652 from 2 events; total $4,082 revenue - $1,457 expense = $2,625 (64%) • 2010: $5,325 from dues; $1,659 from 3 events; total $6,984 revenue - $3,433 expense = $3,551 (51%) • 2011: $5,880 dues (147x$40); $1,600 4 events; total $7,480 revenue - $4,400 expense = $3,080 (41%) • Events in March, June, September, and December, • Decide on profit margins, rates, events
Portfolios Sponsorship • 2009: $450 • 2010: $1,250 • 2011: $2,500 • Cash donations; Gifts-in-kind need to replace a budgeted expense of a portfolio (additions are great, but budget goals haven’t been built that way); $2 gift-in-kind = $1 cash • Event sponsors, silent auction, ads, job bank • Sponsorship structure, contacts, event needs • Expense budget of $10,000 for those portfolios • Leaves $8,000 • $5,000 for Volunteer, Operations, Communications Expense • $3,000 for Member Benefits for next year • $2,000 (10%) Profit, used for a one-time purchase, to build up reserves, be spent on additional member benefits next year , or saved up towards a big purchase (depending on whether the chapter is in a good cash position
Portfolios Communications • 2009: $2,054 • 2010: $2,080 • 2011: $3,000 • C-vent, printing • Decide on tactics, responsibilities, cycles/schedule
