| |
| ** these were received from the bookkeeper this afternoon, so we haven't had time to review in detail
| |
| ** Chris will be working with the bookkeepers about reconciling the undeposited funds moving forward
| |
| ** Two large accounts payable amounts (~$9,600) are from two orders last year that out parts supplier forgot to invoice for. These will appear on May financials, and were expected
| |
| * Bike sales are low due to projected due to inability to build bikes due to reduced bike builder hours; we are on target for YTD, but March and April were below target
| |
| ** two new bike builders are about to join the team, this should increase builds and thus sales; other factors are the quality of donations, due to continued increase in market demand;
| |
| ** Bikes are being sold as quickly as they are being built
| |
| ** based on the ambitious targets and the continuing challenges with sourcing bikes and parts, it is not likely that we will hit May and summer targets. May MTD is $6,800 of $15,000 target.
| |
| ** Volunteers are welcome to join bike building nights to help build bikes; bike builders will be on hand to provide guidance. Sign up is required: https://bikeedmonton.ca/shift-signup
| |
| * Shop fees revenue are also down
| |
| ** Primarily due to continued COVID restrictions (fewer people in shop, fewer appts)
| |
| *** Question (Matt H): Will more paid staff hours give us more revenue?
| |
| *** Answer: Yes, that will help. However, there are a number of variables: highly skilled volunteers, staff and mechanics, Covid restrictions, etc
| |
| ** Accounts Payable - there seem to be some discrepancies in rent payments. This will need to be reviewed.
| |
| * Suggestion: Ad Hoc Revenue Committee to be raised in June.

| * Issues with Bookkeepers
| |
| ** Ongoing errors with junior staff with Seniuk&Co
| |
| ** Executive Committee recognizes that this is one of the primary reasons why there are struggles with getting financials to the board
| |
| ** Exec has requested getting quotes for comparable services
| |
| ** Past experience has shown us that Seniuk has been providing more professional service for the price that we are paying
| |
| ** Question: Where are the challenges? Reporting? POS challenges?
| |
| ** Answer: They are primarily looking at the credit card and bank statements that have a wide variety of deposits to be reconciled against reported revenue.
| |
| ** Question: Is it worth seeking other quotes?
| |
| ** Answer: The services we have now are superior to what we have had in the past as we are working with a CPA firm, not just a bookkeeper.
| |
| ** The board is in agreement to postpone the active search for new accounting services
