It's a nice package to send to the board :)</div><div><br></div><div>#2 - BS - could we anonymize the staff/labour expenses for financial statements, e.g. just a "salaries & wages" line?</div><div><br></div><div>#3 - BS - a few $0 lines aren't very relevant in the present/future: I don't think we'll have a "bike valet equipment contingency", (it's a legacy of the pre-covid BV contract) or deferred revenue for the BV Expansion or Bikeshare Development projects (these 2020-21 projects are completed), and no expected loans in the future: perhaps we could remove these line items from years ago to shorten the statements?</div><div><br></div><div>#4 - BS - is accrued vacation pay a bit high? any reason?</div><div><div><br></div><div>#5 - BS - technically there's almost always a salaries (& benefits, incl. vacation pay) payable and a source deductions payable on any balance sheet. But this often leads to AGMs questions from members who are unfamiliar with financial statements. I wonder if we could create an accounting policy that a note stating that salaries and source deductions payables less than 1 month (or payment period) -- given their normalcy -- are not included in the statements, or a similar type of note so that the BS is even shorter?</div></div><div><br></div><div>#6 - BS - the property/plant/equip line doesn't include the drill press, right? I think that, at some point in the future, it'd be nice to break out this line a bit: bikes & trailers, outreach equipment, valet equipment, tech (computers/phones), and maybe a couple other informative categories. But perhaps in a subordinate schedule, and perhaps just for the annual statements and not the quarterly ones. Just a thought.</div><div><br></div><div>#6 - IS - could we group all the income together, subtotal all the cash expenses together, and list the non-cash expenses (depreciation) at the end before the total expenses?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!!<br>Clayton</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, 25 Jul 2023 at 13:19, Benjamin Meek <<a href="mailto:benjamin.meek@gmail.com" target="_blank">benjamin.meek@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Hi Luke,<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Thanks so much for sending these documents.
