Cyberspace Communications finances for October, 1999 Mark Unseen   Nov 1 13:39 UTC 1999

Here is the treasurer's report on Cyberspace Communications, Inc. finances
through October 31st, 1999.

Beginning Balance     $5,196.01

Credits                 $702.00         Member contributions
                          $8.00         Handbooks sold
                         $15.20         Miscellaneous donations
                   ------------
                        $725.20

Debits                   $66.15         Pumpkin Rent for November
                         $54.34         Electricity for October
                        $347.66         Phone Bill
                   ------------
                        $468.15

Ending Balance        $5,453.06

Our current balance breaks down as follows:

$5,261.20               General Fund
  $131.86               Silly Hat Fund
   $60.00               Spare Parts Fund

There was no activity in the Grex Store this month, so the balances remain at:

                         Cash                                    Stock
                     ---------                                ---------
                      ($46.60)                                 $301.60

We had three new members in October (goose, jm1, and wasf) and one returning 
member (morpheus).  We are currently at 93 members, 82 of whom are paid 
through at least November 15th.  (The others expired recently and are in a 
grace period.) 

Notes:

- As you can see, October was a good month.  :)

- I finally adjusted the Silly Hat Fund total from the mistake I made back in 
February.  (I reported then that $16.50 was received for the Silly Hat Fund, 
but I added that money to the general fund by mistake.  It's fixed now.)

Thanks to everyone who contributed in October:

ajax, blh, bmoran, bruin, coyote, dpfitzen, goose, jdeigert, jm1, kami, 
laotzu, mnac, mta, obrien, quail, satindra, scg, wasf, and one person who 
asked to remain anonymous.

Thanks everyone!

<cough>  I'm a returning member.  IT's just been a long time. ;-)

Since before 1993, I guess - that's how far my records go.  Welcome back!

(Didn't I renew/extend my membership in October?)

Yes you did, Ken - I'm sorry I left your login off the list.  kami was at the
end of one line and laotzu at the beginning of the next, and you should have
been in between.  My apologies.

I e-mailed Bank of Ann Arbor to ask whether grex was entitled to an
interest-bearing savings account there.  Persons (as opposed to 
businesses) can get about 4% interest on savings, and do free telephone
transfers to a non-interest-bearing checking account, and there are a couple
of other options that pay 1-2% interest with limited withdrawals and
minimum balances.  (I presume the $5000 in the bank is not getting interest
and it has been too much trouble to transfer some of it to a money market
fund.)  4% on $5000 is about $200/year.  Equivalent to cutting a phone line.

I doubt that Grex would qualify as a person.

        I recall Mark doing a long search for the current bank to save
Grex $3 to $6 a month in fees, that is a membership a month.
