2002 Financial Statement

Greetings to All!

One of the duties of the Treasurer is to publish our financial information to the membership annually. The information used for this report is taken directly from the SCA's tax report (the 990) that is filed with the Internal Revenue Service.

Many Society members have asked why the prior year report is published almost a year later. The reason you are seeing 2002 information published in 2003 because of the scheduling of this report. It takes almost an entire year to collect, balance and correct all the information from all our reporting branches. All SCA, Inc. branches that holds money in the name of the SCA, Inc., who uses our tax-exempt ID. This includes all publications and the Corporate Office. This information is given to our certified public accountant, who then produces the report for the Internal Revenue Service. This report is filed late in the year following the one which is being reported on.

The following statement is a summary of the SCA's 2002 Form 990, Parts I and IV, as filed with the Internal Revenue Service in October 2003.
