and Cash Balance (Note 1)

Financial Statement

Notes

  1. The Statement of Cash Receipts, Disbursements, and Cash Balances was compiled from the monthly financial reports received from the national office of the American Accounting Association.
  2. As of August 31, 1998, there were 1,269 U.S. members and 423 foreign members; 1,544 were full members and 148 were associate members. As of August 31, 1997, there were 1,264 U.S. members and 440 foreign members; 1,561 were full members and 143 were associate members.
  3. The increase from FYE 97 to FYE 98 is due to a large receipt from the Copyright Clearance Center for the reproduction of A:AJPT articles in foreign countries (primarily Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom).
  4. Per Bill Felix (Editor, A:AJPT) there has been a decline in submissions during the FYE 8-31-98. See the Report of the Editor for further details.
  5. The decrease from FYE 97 to FYE 98 is due to the fact that no CPE sessions were sponsored by the Auditing Section at the 1998 Annual Meeting.
  6. Includes: (1) contribution of $11,609.55 from the KPMG Peat Marwick Foundation for Midyear Meeting costs, and (2) a reimbursement of $9,612.87 from the University of Waterloo for an A:AJPT supplement arising from a Univ. of Waterloo audit symposium.
  7. The increase from FYE 97 to FYE 98 is due to three issues of A:AJPT being published during FYE 98 (Spring 97, Fall 97, Spring 98) as compared to two issues during FYE 97.
  8. The decrease from FYE 97 to FYE 98 is due to the partial use of electronic dissemination of The Auditor’s Report during FYE 98.
  9. The Midyear Meeting costs of $29,193.10 included a $4,000 advance payment to the plenary speaker for the 1999 Midyear Meeting. These costs were largely covered by: (1) meeting registration fees ($17,410) and (2) KPMG Peat Marwick contribution ($11,609.55). The $173.55 shortfall—which represents printing charges for the 1999 Midyear Meeting Call for Papers—will be recovered from the KPMG Peat Marwick Foundation in 1999.
  10. Represents the net of luncheon ticket revenue and luncheon expense. Last year’s amount, $332.13, has been reclassified from Miscellaneous Expense.
  11. Represents reimbursements to members of the Executive Committee for incremental costs incurred in attending Executive Committee meetings.
  12. This amount includes $1,324 of postage expense.
