As promised, here are some numbers regarding what would we have to do to afford the new space. Our current income/expense estimates are something like: Expenses: 2000 rent 3000 electricity 600 internet 5600 TOTAL Income: 6000 15*400 full members [*] 600 3*200 discount members 6600 TOTAL We might be able to afford this if we raise full membership to 700-800, student membership to 300. The assumption that we'll pay 1/3 more for electricity is completely arbitrary, would be great to have more precise estimate (heating ...). Other assumption is that we'll lose two members because of the higher fees. IMHO 600 is too little with the current member count, 800 might be safer choice. Expenses: 5000 rent 4000 electricity 600 internet 9600 TOTAL Income: 9100 13*700 full members 900 3*300 discount members 10000 TOTAL Please note that we also need to take into account: * paying the full first year in advance, * paying for BOTH spaces for a month+ when moving, * other one-time expenses related to moving. For that we'd probably need to ask members for one-time donation or a loan. Ideas? Opinions? b. [*] There's supposed to be 17 full members but I don't think we can convince every single one of them to pay their missing payments. Respect to everyone who pays on time BTW!
