FINANCIAL STATEMENT REVIEW
By Carol Cameron and Sheryl Sunderman

I

n the winter 2020 DOLL NEWS, the DOLL-ER$ and SENSE article showed how UFDC's finances had
performed over the last 10 years. If you didn't read it, you should give it a go - it's written as a Q&A with
pictures - feedback is that it was easy to understand. In this spring 2021 issue, the focus is on the last financial
year (2019-2020) and the results of the Financial Statement Review.
So, what are the key messages?
KEY MESSAGE ONE: THE REVIEW GAVE US A CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH
The Certified Public Accountants of RubinBrown LLP completed their review of the United Federation
of Doll Clubs, Inc. Financial Statements for the period September 1, 2019 through August 31, 2020 on
December 1, 2020.
Their review concluded that " Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. "
That's great news!

KEY MESSAGE TWO: WITH THE CANCELLATION OF THE 71st NATIONAL CONVENTION, 2019-2020
WAS NOT A NORMAL YEAR FOR UFDC FINANCIALLY, BUT, DESPITE EVERYTHING, IT TURNED
OUT OK WITH A NET SURPLUS OF $123K - IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE!!!
The National Convention is by far our biggest revenue stream and biggest expenditure. So, with the
cancellation of the Dallas convention, both our revenue and expenditure were a lot lower than normal.
Back in July, when Sheryl Sunderman, UFDC's Financial Officer, and I forecast the end year position, we
estimated we would end up with a deficit of around $30K. What we did not anticipate was a very large
donation of dolls to our museum, that, when evaluated, added $150K to the " Gifts and Donations " part of our
revenue. This very generous contribution turned our expected loss into a surplus of $123K.
Both the avoidance of a heavy convention cancellation penalty and the income from the July 2020 online event
helped the " Convention " revenues and expenses balance ($286K vs $282K). In total, the Non-Convention
elements produced a surplus, ($753K revenue vs $634K expenses), mostly due to the doll donation.
KEY MESSAGE THREE: OUR BALANCE SHEET LOOKS OK, BUT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WE
HAVE SUFFICIENT CASH ON AN ONGOING BASIS
As of Aug 31, 2020, our Total Assets stood at $4.35mln. This is an increase of $0.15mln over the previous year,
which reflects the surplus from 2019-2020.
