Link to page with all reports for Phoenix LNC meeting
by Wes Benedict 26 Sep '18

26 Sep '18

LNC: You can find all of the available reports for the upcoming LNC meeting posted here: https://www.lp.org/event/lnc-meeting-in-phoenix-az/ The staff report is attached and here: https://www.lp.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/2018-09-29_LNC_Meeting_Staff_… At the LNC meeting, we'll provide printed copies of the GIANT PRINTED HANDOUT and the Policy Manual. 1. GIANT PRINTED HANDOUT: https://www.lp.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/2018-09-29-LNC-MEETING-GIANT-… 2. https://www.lp.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/2018-09-29_LNC_Meeting_LNC_Po… If you're going to print something to read on the plane, I suggest printing the GIANT PRINTED HANDOUT. It contains most of the reports, but to save on printing costs excludes region reports, the Historic Preservation Committee report, minutes, and perhaps a few other items. I'll continue to post new reports as received, but the GIANT PRINTED HANDOUT is being sent to the printer right away for printing, so it cannot me changed or added to. I look forward to seeing you in Phoenix.

Motion for a Capitalization Threshold
by Tim Hagan 26 Sep '18

26 Sep '18

I will have a motion during the Treasurer Report or as new business, whichever the Chair prefers. The motion is to amend the Policy Manual Section 2.03, Subsection 6, Fixed Assets, by adding two paragraphs to the beginning of the subsection: A fixed asset is defined as a unit of property or equipment that: (1) has an economic useful life that extends beyond 12 months; and (2) was acquired or produced for a cost of $2,500 or more. Fixed assets must be capitalized and depreciated for financial statement purposes. The threshold amount for minimum capitalization is $2,500. Any items costing below this amount should be expensed in the financial statements. This came up with the purchase of a new water heater for the office, on whether it should be capitalized and depreciated or shown as an expense in the financial statements. We don't have a written policy for a capitalization threshold. Our auditor, Mark Frye, said the IRS lets companies and organizations to set their threshold for capital expenses as high as $5000, but he suggested $2,500 as a reasonable figure. -- Tim Hagan Treasurer, Libertarian National Committee I will have a motion during the Treasurer Report or as new business, whichever the Chair prefers.

August End-of-Month Financial Reports
by Tim Hagan 25 Sep '18

25 Sep '18

The August End-of-Month Financial Reports are attached. The reserve, at $18,742, has become positive but is still below the reserve target. Budget line 90-Project, Program, Other, was budgeted at $5000 to cover LPedia and Historical Preservation. There is $123 left in the budget for this expense. This program is normally running about $150/month in expenses. The 40-Administrative expenses is currently $19,075 below budget, so it can be decreased. I will have a motion to move $1000 from Administrative to Project, Program, Other. We have been making payments on the bill from the Hyatt Regency, and still owe them $77k. We are on track to pay off the Hyatt bill by the end of November. The mortgage is now down to $215,138. --- Tim Hagan Treasurer, Libertarian National Committee The August End-of-Month Financial Reports are attached.
