NCMA - FY 05 STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES  AND COMMENTARY FOR JANUARY 2005
  EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The results for January are summarized as follows:
Actual Budget Variance
Revenues 282,927 240,003 42,924
Expenses 304,242 316,353 12,110
Net Income - pre investment income (21,316) (76,350) 55,034
The favorable variance in January revenue results from better than budgeted performance in Individual Membership Dues, Communications (CM Magazine, and NCMA Jobs.com), and
Education (Audio Seminars).
This favorable variance is offset by adverse variances in Education (NES and E-Learning)
The favorable variance in January expenses is primarily the result of lower Mid Year Leadership Summit costs, lower membership costs (No Director of Membership and lower mailing
and printing costs)
This favorable variance is partially offset by higher administrative costs (Computer management, Relocation and Travel costs)
The Year to Date results are summarized as follows:
Actual Budget Variance
Revenues 2,320,578 2,221,043 99,535
Expenses 2,326,572 2,381,185 54,613
Net Income - pre investment income (5,994) (160,142) 154,148
The favorable variance in year to date revenues reflects better than budgeted Magazine advertising, NCMA Jobs.com revenues, Website revenues and NES seminar and Audio Seminar revenues.
This is partially offset by the shortfall in both the ADC revenues in July and Commercial Contracting revenues in September together with the delayed start in e-Learning and lower book sales.
Year to date expenses are lower than budgeted for the following reasons:
Lower ADC conference variable costs
Lower Commercial Contracting Conference variable costs
Lower Mid Year Leadership Conference costs
Deferral of budgeted costs in Certification and lower Certification Board costs
Later than  planned start date for new Chief Knowledge Officer (Education) and Designer (Communications)
Deferral of e-Learning product launch
Lower than budgeted Board of Director meeting expenses
Deferred membership costs (Chapter manual, Certificates)
These lower costs have been partially offset by:
Journal printing costs
Higher than budgeted computer system and internet management costs
Additional accounting assistance for the period of the Accounting Manager's maternity leave
Higher variable costs on CM Magazine, Website, NES and Audio Seminars
