LMVA Annual Report 2020


Finances

Income

The income for the Lyell McEwin Volunteer Association increased in the 2019/2020 financial year primarily due to the COVID-19 funding that was made available by the Federal and State Governments to not for profit organisations.

The key challenges during the year regarding income for the Association:

  • Trading profit decreased by 19%. This was largely due to the COVID-19 shutdown, however, some areas were struggling prior to COVID-19

  • Fundraising decreased by over 40%. A large portion was due to COVID-19 however some other contributing factors included less raffle ticket sales and decline in Entertainment Book sales.

The Government incentives provided during COVID-19 to keep the economy buoyant included

  • Jobkeeper $72,000

  • Cash Boost $44,167

  • SA Government Grant $10,000

Expenditure

Most expenditure items had a slight decrease in 2019/20. However, salaries including on costs increased due to the employment of the Modbury Volunteer Manager and Bi Cultural Worker. Salaries also included the CPI increase in Award rates for all staff.

Balance Sheet Summary:

In 2019/20 the Balance Sheet of the Lyell McEwin Volunteer Association continued to be in a strong position in difficult times.

Assets:

There was an insignificant decline in the Assets. The main change is due to the reduction in Debtors. There is a slight movement in Cash at Hand.

Liabilities:

The reduction in liabilities is due to a slight reduction in most liabilities of the Association. While no reduction is significant in its own right as a whole they make the difference that has reduced the liabilities of the Association.

Members Funds:

While the Association has had a difficult year due to COVID-19, we have still seen an increase in member’s funds for the second year in a row. While slightly less than last year it is still an increase.

Conclusion:

While the Association has had many challenges in the last few years the 2019/20 financial year was a challenge like no other. While 20/21 will see still more challenges the Association is looking at ways to build a sustainable income stream to secure its long term future
