British APL Association - summary of annual accounts 1997/98

BCS have informed me that interest on the Gold account was £432.47 more than originally stated. This affects total income, bank balance and net assets - these are the only figures revised. [Nicholas Small 15 May 1998: the figures here are corrected.]

Notes

Pence figures have been omitted, so columns may not add exactly.

The value of stocks of Vector and the Software Library have not been assessed, nor has the value of the Association's computing hardware and software.

For 1997/98, figures are shown both as income and expenditure, i.e. revenues strictly relating to the activities of that year, and as receipts and payments, i.e. what goes in and out of our bank account. The comparitive figures for earlier years relate to income and expenditure.

Note that from 1997/98 VAT collection payments are made net of any rebate, so VAT rebates no longer appear under Income/Receipts, Other.
