Sorry we've been slow to update the financials.  Beginning at the end of 2022, our financial statements will appear here annually (and will no longer appear monthly).  We hope you can help us keep the servers going!

(a) In March of 2022, there was a major hardware and software upgrade, and we paid for two servers through May.  The old server cost $74.95/mo, and the newer one $99/mo.   In March and April, there were charges for a domain name for the old server and the purchase of software for technical staff.  This major upgrade was generously supported by free technical work by Sergei Chekanov.
The above chart reflects the financial situation as of the last calendar day of that month.
<br/>
<br>&nbsp;<br>
(b) Via a billing error, we were overcharged for about six months of server costs during 2022. This credit will be used in 2023 to pay for the first several months of server costs.
(a) As of Mar. 2022, the server underwent hardware and software upgrades.  The new server is $99 per month.  The old server will stay up while transition work continues.  The old server costs $74.95/mo.  In March, we paid all server costs ahead through May 21 (so likely no server charge in April). In March and April, here were also charges for a domain name for the old server and the purchase of some necessary software for technical staff.
<br/>
<br>&nbsp;<br>
(c) Expenses in 2022 included, besides the server, payments for programmers to assist with automating backups and perform a version upgrade.
(b) Prior to 6/4/2021, donations via Paypal were not moved into the Citizendium bank account but languished in Paypal and were not in this report; thus, donations made between Feb. and May 2021 were shown in the Jun 2021 report.
<br/>&nbsp;<br>
(c) There was an incorrect payment of $103.83 made in June 2021.  That amount will be reimbursed to The Citizendium in Jan 2022.
