Hi Kathy,
 
Thanks for supplying the new financial data for February, March and  April  and the YTD data till 
sometime in April?
 
But the $ data published for March & April (where late fees are also given) appear faulty.
 
Let me explain:
 
There is a relation between the Current Assessment $ collected (in Account #40050) and the late 
fees $ collected (in Account #41210) for the same month’s data, though approximate.
 
The $ of Account #40050 divided by $500 provides an estimate of the number of lots/units paying 
assessments, and each  of this number is penalized by a fee (depending on the month) to obtain 
the total $ that can be compared to $ shown in Account #41210.
 
For March data, this is calculated from $17,225 / $500 = 34.5 lots/units roughly ; and the late fee 
penalty is $20 per lot/unit for March. The product of these amounts is $689. But the published 
amount in Account #41210 is $880.

For April data,  $4072 / $500 = 8.1 and 8.1 * $40 (penalty for April payments)   gives about $325. 
The published amount is $770.     
 
I understand the calculational method cited above is not exact, but a comparison of estimated 
late fee $ and the published amounts is not even close. 
 
We can discuss this further if you like. Let me know!
