Nunes 80 Fredericks Road, Scotia, NY 12302-5727 518-399-8395; [email protected] Stamp Insider Finances have completed the year-end accounting and projection for the Stamp Insider’s 2007 in- I come and disbursements. An accurate accounting of the journal and the Federation’s fi- nances is necessary to maintain our nonprofit status. The Insider’s income exceeded expenses by $620.71, or a little more than five cents per copy; 11,850 copies were distributed. We did not require support from our remaining Federation funds of $1,150 nor did we receive any assistance from the Northeast Association of Stamp Dealers (NEASDA), as we did in 2006. Norman Cohen, our publisher and benefactor, continued his contribution to the Fed- eration through in-kind services of $7,804.17. This is the difference it costs us to print in color and to mail some issues in bulk shipments to show promoters. Otherwise the cost of the publication would go from its current $1.11 per issue to $1.83 per issue. The Stamp Insider’s officers, editor, and staff contribute their time and talent pro bono. 2005 Summary: The Insider realized a profit of $504 or seven cents per copy was realized. We distributed 7,200 copies. 2006 Summary: The Insider had a $1,901 deficit or 17 cents per copy. The shortfall was met from the Federation’s treasury and by a NEASDA donation. We distributed 11,100 copies. 2007 Summary: We raised the rates for advertisers and subscribers for the first time in 12 years with the January–February issue. A profit of $620.71 or a little more than five cents per copy is expected. We distributed 11,850 copies. We will maintain our present fee structure through 2008. Our advertisers helped support maintaining the cost to member clubs. Income and expenditures, which include the Federation Web site that is not part of the Stamp Insider, were: 2007 Income 2007 Expenditures Advertising $10,800.00 Printing $7200.00 Club Subscriptions s2,799.50 Lettershop 480.00 Subscribers/Advertising 156.00 Envelopes 924.00 Postage 4166.43 Web Site 60.00 Editor’s Expenses 176.03 Secretary’s Expenses 120.05 President’s Expenses 8.28 Total $13,755.50 Total $13,134.79 Thanks to the advertisers, clubs, subscribers, our editor, publisher, editorial staff, and reporters for supporting this beneficial aspect of philately in the Empire State.
