RE: [nc-budget] NC budget 2002 IMPORTANT FOR NC JAN


This looks good to me except for one thing: I don't think we should delay approval of the refund to the Registrars Constituency.

Importance: High

Budget Committee,
Important change to proposed NC fees 2002
 
1.  2002 fees
Please find attached two Excel files. These have been prepared by Glen, Elisabeth and Diane at ICANN and are an update on the budget figures we discussed at the last Budget Committee.
 
The good news is that allowing for all 2001 costs there is a carry over of $57,533. This is too much to leave as reserves. I am reluctant to ask the NC to agree to the 2002 fees we discussed when we have a surplus of this size. (And if all back fees are paid we will have even more).
 
I suggest that Roger propose to the NC the following (See Excel file for detail).
Budget 2002 $97,966 (agreed by Budget Committee including 10% contingency)
Less 2001 surplus $57,333 (includes maximum surplus payment to Registrars)
Plus 2002 reserve $30,000
Balance to finance = $ 70,633
Fee call (7) $10,100 per constituency (rounded up).
 
2. Registrars surplus
Dianne's latest advise is that the Registrar's overpaid $14986.14 (and not $12,736.14). The fee proposal above assumes the conservative case that the overpay is $14986.14. I propose that we do not ask the NC to approve at the Jan 17 meeting but that the figure is first clarified between the Budget Committee/Registrars/Diane and the NC asked to approve at its Feb meeting.
(If we end up with another $2000 in the bank, well and good but this need not stop us agreeing on fees on Jan 17).
Philip
