Treasurers Report: January 2009 - Present Prepared by: Chris Dagdigian Version 1.0 - December 2009

General Summary

As of 12/14/2009 we have the following balances in our banking accounts:

• $14,813.25 - Standard Business Checking Account
• $16,245.68 - Business Investment Checking Account

With respect to our bank accounts, the OBF tends to spend very little money, on the order of 5 financial transactions since 2004. We generally take in money in the form of interest from our accounts and the occasional directed donation.

All 2009 Financial Transactions

• 05/19/2009 - ($520.00) -- Jason S. online billpay via Business Checking Account
• 12/14/2009 - $15.17 -- Year to date interest on our Business Investment Checking Account
• To be deposited - $250.00 -- Anonymous donation for BOSC travel fellowship

Financial Oversight

Unchanged since 2008, Jason Stajich & Chris Dagdigian have shared online access to our Bank of America accounts and statements. We have an ATM card and a Visa debit card that have (intentionally) never been activated for use. In the rare occasions when the OBF needs to spend money we issue paper checks.

2009 Expenses (to date)

• $(520.00) : Reimburse Jason S. for two BOSC 2008 Student Awards ($260/ea) paid via PayPall

2009 Income (to date)

• $15.17 : Interest earned on business checking account
