Past years’ finances should be kept by the Secretary, but it is wise to keep the previous fiscal year handy while you are learning and getting familiar with the accounts.

Let’s learn some terminology:

Non- Profit Organization that does NOT have to pay taxes on money received.

 That means you have a tax exempt status with IRS as a Non-Profit Organization and do not have to pay taxes on money received. Donating to a 501(c)(4) does NOT allow the donor to write-off the donation to an Exchange Club. (There are a few exceptions, but Exchange Clubs do not fall within those IRS guidelines.) You are not allowed to participate in or intervene with any political activity to promote any candidate or opposing candidate.

Very few Exchange Clubs are this type of organization. There are a few differences from the 501(c)(4)

◦ Donations are a tax write-off to the donor in most cases ◦ Must provide donor with a receipt for the amount of donation or a receipt for the value of the donation if the donation is at least $25. ◦ Must be a corporation, fund, foundation or community chest and follow rules of these types of organizations.

1. Invoice and Statement 2. Assets and Liabilities 3. Chart of Accounts 4. Balance Sheet 5. Profit & Loss Statement (P & L) 6. Budget 7. Accounts Receivable 8. A/R Aging Report

Invoice - A non-negotiable bill issued to give a detailed list of services with an account of all costs, and provides the dates of service and due date for payment. Statement – A periodic summary of account with a beginning date and an ending date. Usually provided monthly, showing the balance owing. This is not a bill. Assets and Liabilities – An asset is anything of economic value owned by an entity and a liability is a debt or an obligation that legally binds an entity which it must pay. Chart of Accounts – A list of account names and sub-accounts arranged in the order in which they customarily appear in the financial statements. Balance Sheet – A financial statement that summarizes at a specific period in time an entity’s assets, liabilities and net worth. It is sometimes called the Statement of Financial Condition.

 Profit and Loss Statement (P&L) – A statement showing earnings (income), expenses, and net profit. The P & L statement shows transactions over a given period of time, whereas the Balance Sheet gives a snapshot on a specific date.  Budget – An itemized summary of estimated or intended expenditures for a given period of time along with proposals for financing them.  Accounts Receivable – The Money that is owed the entity by others. Accounts receivable are current assets that are expected to be paid within a short amount of time.  A/R Aging Report – A report that groups accounts receivable balances according to how long they have been outstanding, usually reported with current, 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, and over 120 days.

DUTIES TO PERFORM EACH MONTH: 1. Pay bills in timely manner 2. Reconcile Bank Accounts 3. Make deposits at least 2 x month 4. Prepare Financial Statements one day before Board Meeting P & L Balance Sheet Budget vs. Actuals Aging Report on Dues Make a formal copy to give to Secretary to file with Minutes from each Board Meeting 5.

What account would you post it to? Operating or Fundraising Your club wants to devote a portion of its fundraising to development of leadership and education. Is that doable? What is the maximum percentage your Board should elect to go towards Education from your Fundraiser Funds? Should you write a check if instructed by the President for funds that were not budgeted or not approved by the Board of Directors?

 Due by November 15 of each year – if the 15 th falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday it is due the next business day  Most Clubs can file a 990-N (e-Postcard). Filing Requirement is: Annual Gross Receipts are normally $50,000 or less ($25,000 for tax years ending after December 31, 2007 and before December 31, 2010)  A Club that fails to file 990-N for three consecutive years may lose their tax exempt status.  A Club may choose to file a 990 or 990-EZ instead of 990-N, if so desired.

 To file the 990-N you will need…  Tax ID Number  Tax Year Ending Date June 30, 20##  Club’s Legal Name and Mailing Address  Name and Address of a Club Officer  Website Address (if applicable) TO FILE YOUR CLUB’S 990-N, VISIT THE WEBSITE: epostcard.form990.org

 990-EZ can be filed by Clubs with gross receipts of less than $200,000 and total assets of less than $500,000 at the end of their tax year.  If a Club does not meet the criteria for filing a 990-EZ or N, then it must file a 990.  990-EZ and 990 have failure to file penalties against Club and responsible person (that’s you TREASURER!)

 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) by law must have open books. As a non-profit organization, your books are up for review by IRS, other members, other Clubs, the District, National, and non-members.  Non-Profits need transparency
