6 Published weekly on Thursday Page 6 Read the numbers Trinity Financial Report January 2019 January 2019 Actual Budget Contributions $109,787 $98,047 Other Receipts 12,502 12,520 Total Receipts 122, ,567 Expenses 136, ,835 Budget Balance ($14,101) ($26,268) Change in budgeting: For years, we used identical monthly budget amounts based on simply dividing expected ANNUAL receipts and expenses by 12, resulting in a monthly net budget balance of $0. That procedure was unrealistic because of variables such as higher offerings at Christmas and Easter, lower offerings in summer, timing of ministry and event expenses, and so on. Therefore, beginning this year, our monthly budgets are based on expected receipts and expenses according to historical data and will therefore result in a fluctuation of positive and negative net monthly budget balances.
