      March 2004 Treasurer's Report
      
      Software in the Public Interest Financial Data
      ==============================================
      
      This report uses a cash-based method of accounting,
      recording donations when deposited (not when the check was
      written or received by us) and recording expenses when paid
      (not when incurred). Network for Good processing fees are
      listed as negative income; the expense category does not
      include those because they are subtracted from donations
      before we receive them. In the balance sheet, those
      processing fees are treated as reducing the net increase in
      SPI's unrestricted-earmark funds, which is a change from my
      previous report (where they reduced the earmark-TBD funds).
      
      This month I have included an adjustment to the January
      profit/loss statement and a correspondingly adjusted balance
      sheet. The adjustment of accrued dividends for the AmEx
      account will be a commonplace occurrence, given that the
      dividends accrue monthly but we receive only quarterly
      statements. Suggestions are welcome for ways to avoid the
      need to restate each month the preceding month's entire
      balance sheet in such cases. This may become moot once we
      finish setting up online access for that account.
