Financial Report for November 2011The month ran remarkably close to the expected budget, so I don't think there's much to be said about it.  The only item that stands out is a substantial negative ($1500) in the cash over/under.  This is the first month I've completed a physical cash count since the end of August - numbers between now and then are all from the cash sheet, and the over/under number came from the daily count, usually done by Alex.  There had been a substantial positive ($1300) in September, and I suspect that at some point, someone triggered the "move money to safe" function, but didn't actually move any money, resulting in a double count that wasn't caught and corrected until now.  I don't think we've been robbed.

YTD, we're also running quite close to budget.  I've rescheduled budget items relating to the North shop.  If we do get a north shop going in May, I think we'll be fine, but do keep in mind that if the North shop gets delayed past the summer, we'll finish the year roughly $10k short of our target.

====Items in Mailbox====
1 - There was a card from Ian's mother, and a $100 cheque included. She said that they're intending to give us some of the money from Ian's estate once it's settled up.  I'd appreciate it if someone who knew him better than I could please send a response.
2 - There was a mail-in membership renewal who said they tried to renew at the shop, but we wouldn't accept their cheque.  The only thing strange about it is that it's from an account with the Christian Credit Union, but I can't see why that would matter.  Is there a cheque policy that I don't know about, and if there's not, could Alex please include something in his next volunteer mailout to the effect that we do accept cheques.
