Work Plan – Financial Management
A. GENERALIABC San Diego follows board and fiscal years of July-June and is in the first year of a new one-year strategic plan. This work plan covers the chapter’s financial results and practices for July 2011 – November 2012.
Goals & Objectives
From the 2007-2012 IABC San Diego strategic plan:
• Goal: Make IABC-San Diego profitable. In using its resources to provide programs and services that are valuable to members, the chapter will achieve an operating surplus in all revenue generating programs.
• Objectives:
1. Establish pricing structures and cost controls to ensure profitable professional development events.
2. Establish a reserve account of 50% of annual operating expenses. 3. Chapter will not run a deficit budget based on the current economy.
B. Budget & Accounting
• The chapter expense budget philosophy is:
1. Establish a budget at the beginning of the fiscal year, with a goal of providing the chapter
with a net profit at year-end. A report on the year-to-date variance between budget and actuals will be presented at each board meeting.
2. To create the budget, the board first establishes its strategy and the board members
translate that strategy into their plans for the fiscal year, taking prior year’s results into consideration. From those plans, the VP-Finance calculates the budget necessary to fund the chapter’s plans for the current fiscal year.
3. The budget is presented and approved at the September board meeting. 4. Professional development events must at least break even.
5. Other expenses are tied to the board members’ strategic objectives. This gives board
members’ authority to spend as needed to meet their goals – provided they remain within the pre-approved budget.
6. Receive board approval prior to incurring expenditures that exceed the budget or are
new expenses.
• For July 2011 – November 2012: With revenue of $13,579 and expenses of $10,772, the chapter has a net profit of $2,808.
Financial Reporting
• The Vice President, Finance (VP-Fin) prepares and presents a monthly report to the board. The fiscal-year-to-date report includes the following: Profit & Loss, bank account reconciliation, actual to budget variances, and analysis of specific events. Given the strategic plan focus on overall managing the chapter profitably, the VP-Fin highlights the year-to-date net income.
• The chapter added a section to highlight the profit & loss results of specific events, such as professional development. This focused report aids the board’s decision making process.
Reserves
• 50% of the chapter’s annual operating expenses would be about $5,000, but we elected to reserve $7,000 to help offset any reductions in revenue due to the economy.
• Since June 2011, the chapter has increased its average fund balance from around $12,000 to now averaging almost $14,000.
• Given this track record, the chapter established a separate interest-bearing money marketing account for our reserves.
Revenue
The chapter generated revenue from these sources: • Revenue was $13,579.
• 45% - Member dues ($55 per year per member)
• 46% - Professional Development fees (the chapter charges $30 for members, $50 for non-members and $20 for students).
• 9% - Donations and other sources • Expenses were $10,772.
• 35% - Professional Development program (food, online payment processing fees, etc.) • 33% - Board member attendance at various local, regional and national IABC events • 32% - General office items, member recognition, and an online newsletter.
• Additional Comments:
• Program/Event Fees – To streamline payment processing and reduce the intake and processing of cash and checks, the chapter instituted enrollment and payment through Eventbrite. For walk-ins, the board bills the attendee through PayPal.
Other Revenue Sources – Given the state of the economy, the chapter did not actively pursue
sponsorship and ad revenue from outside sources. Instead, the board focused on securing in-kind donations – such as deeply discounted printing for the Volunteer Recognition booklet, and a venue partnership with UCSD Extension (described below).
The chapter has also continued to secure donated prizes from our speakers, including books, airline tickets and professional development classes. UCSD Extension Partnership
• IABC San Diego created a partnership with UCSD Extension with outstanding results for the chapter. UCSD Extension is the professional and public service division of UC San Diego, and has an exceptional meeting facility located in University City – ideally situated in the heart of San Diego County. Through our partnership, UCSD provides a free venue for our professional development events in exchange for the opportunity to participate in our events and market its offering to our members.
New Financial Policies/Procedures
• Established Cancellation Policy – To defray the costs associated with people registering for, but not attending or paying for, Professional Development events, the chapter implemented a cancellation policy. Refunds are only available for cancellations made more than 24-hours prior to the event, and no-shows are billed in full.
• Analysis of Event ROI – After changing the venue of its PD events, the chapter noticed the events were not achieving the same revenues. Further analysis showed that the PD events had begun losing money. The chapter responded accordingly with enhanced program topics,
additional outreach, and adjustments in costs. The positive results are encouraging.
Additionally, the chapter tracks the revenue and expenses of each event, and evaluates ROI on a monthly basis.
• Reduced Paper/Increased Online Transactions – We continue to reduce paper transaction and increase online transactions through email, debit card use, and Eventbrite. With the success of Eventbrite, we no longer use PayPal, retaining it just for ad hoc uses.
Ongoing Financial Procedures
• Accounting & Reconciliation -- All financial aspects of the chapter are organized and maintained by the VP of Finance, who facilitates all payments for chapter professional
development meetings via cash, check, or credit card. All payments collected are verified as to the individual’s membership status and against the event’s RSVP and final attendance lists. Once audited, all monies are transferred from Eventbrite into the chapter bank account. Likewise, the VP of Fin reconciles and/or facilitates all other deposits (chapter dues, etc.) and expenses. These records are stored in an online system and are reported monthly to the board. All other necessary expenses are handled on a vendor billing and/or reimbursement basis. Board members are reimbursed for expenses previously approved by the Board, and through the completion of an expense reimbursement (a.k.a. check request) form and the original receipt or invoice.
Informing Chapter Leaders
Board Member Education – The VP-Finance regularly details overall financial performance, and
addresses financial issues and recommendations during the monthly Board meetings. As new expenses are proposed, the VP provides the financial backdrop (impact to the budget, cash flow, expenses, future needs, etc.) to help the Board’s decision making.
Results
Goals and Objectives Results for July 2011-November 2012
Establish pricing structures and cost controls to ensure profitable professional development events.
• Established Event ROI & Membership
analysis tracking.• Revised catering selections to save money
and focused on more of a casual, higher quality menu, rather than a more formal, lower quality menu.Establish a reserve account of 50% of annual
operating expenses. Throughout the period, the chapter maintained more than the minimum amount required for reserves. Established an interest-bearing account for reserves.
Chapter will be profitable. Projected net income for the period is
approximately $2,000. Given the economy, maintaining profitability is a tremendous accomplishment.
