NOTES/DEFINITIONS
* Cash only includes income and expenses completed. (Think of your wallet.)
** Accrual includes known and scheduled income and expenses that haven't been completed yet. (Think of the money you're owed and that you owe.)
+$ means we have it to work with
-$ in
accrual means I'm subsidizing more than I want to pay and expect others to pony up. I will stop spending under this condition until there is new income. The project can halt under this condition.
-$ in
cash if accrual is positive or neutral ($0) means I'm waiting for income that hasn't arrived. I will tolerate this. It means I'm floating the difference between negative cash and non-negative accrual.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS SOLD?
The point of this project is to have some fun and give the participants the lowest possible cost for enjoying some actual car racing. While I am the owner of record, all participants are owners as far as I'm concerned. This means.
- I will not sell it without a consensus to sell.
- It will either be sold internally to members, auction style where the proceeds go to running the site or better yet, into a bigger and better project car. Or, if sold to the general public an equity stake in the car will be calculated based on time, money and effort into the car. So if you had a 10% equity stake and the car sold for $1,000, $100 would come back to you. This involves both objective and subjective elements of course. At that time I'll make best effort to be as transparent and fair as humanly possible.
I mention this so those wondering, hey, are we just paying to build a car for Vettezuki to play around with can know what my thinking and the long run looks like.
