Financial Report

As of 1/31/18 the NAACL Chapter’s bank account was 88,797.07 and as of 12/31/18 the NAACL Chapter’s bank account was $71,164.59. This includes the following outlays from 2018: $431.82 for 9 years of domain name renewal and forwarding of naacl.org, $5k for NACLO (2500 each for US and Canadian chapters), $3k (3x$1000) + $120 in wire service fees for ERF grants, and $9145.54 for various JSALT expenses (which includes a $15 excessive checks fee in June). Total outlays were 17,697.36. There was also $64.88 in total interest income. We then accounted for the long-delayed 2015 NAACL conference loss of $36,265.36 which brings the true total to $34,899.23. We have yet to incorporate profit or loss from our portion of the ACL 2017 conference in Vancouver or NAACL 2018, as these totals are unknown. Given this uncertainty we recommend prudence in outlays for 2019 at this time.
