NOTES:
I have listed the usual
off-season schedule above, but everything of course depends on if there are any
rules changes that come out of the league re-organization. The updates that are
listed depend on the new league administration. This update will be my last. I
am stepping down as league secretary effective tomorrow, November 15.
Please do not send me any more dues or trade fee
money. The calendar above does show
that dues and feed balances will be due by the start of the draft next February
11. That is there for a reminder, but please do not pay me. You will need to
pay your dues to the next administration.
The one remaining task for me
is to settle up the final accounts. The final balances up to the end of my
reign are shown at bottom.
There are 6 teams which owe
me money: BUR, CIA,
The other 13 teams have a
credit and so I will owe them money. The total of all credits come out to $434,
with the final payout between
Note that I also owe the
league as a whole $120 in dues that were already prepaid for 2012. I will
transfer those funds over to the incoming administration for them to carry
forward.
Rather than bother to collect
the $82 that I am owed from those 6 managers, I am just going to divide that up
as evenly as possible among the other 13 teams that I owe money to. So their
payout will be less from me, but they will still be owed that money from the
league. The league will then be owed the $82 from the 6 managers listed above,
and my net balance will be zero. Got it?
The results are shown in the
table at bottom. The way I worked it out then was to not refund anyone that had
an $8 or less credit, and to pay $6-7 less to the teams that had more than an
$8 credit. The final result is that I need to pay 8 managers:
If anyone does not like my
accounting methods, oh well, I am an engineer, not an accountant. I will gladly
fine someone $5 to reduce my deficit, still.
