<div>At first glance, it looks good. GST owing looks right.
It would probably be good to have a clearer indication
what figures include GST (or don't) -- I guess the
registration amounts are what was collected ex-GST, eg?
DDU FY summary looked odd, but obviously that's only
because the expenses didn't happen 'til this year.
Conferences look to be on the order of:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> LCA: $400k budget? $50k profit?</div>
<div> PyCon AU: $42k budget, $7k profit</div>
<div> Drupal Down Under: $40k budget, $5k profit?</div>
</div>

<div>Interesting to look at the conferences as a return on
investment?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>LCA = 12.5%</div>
<div>PyCon AU = 16.5%</div>
<div>Drupal Down Under = 12.5%</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All twice as good as just putting the money in the bank
(which is roughly 6%pa). Maybe we should do more conferences!</div>
