Bookkeeping

Internal controls

  • Internal controls are the financial processes and procedures that enable an organization to safeguard its assets. Knox Makers has a responsibility to our members and our community to be good stewards of the funds entrusted to us.

Procurement

  • To ensure accountability and proper documentation no Knox Makers funds may be used for purchasing without the use of a Purchase Order.
  • Requesting a one-time Purchase Order approval requires that the requester provide in writing an estimate of the cost (including tax), which account the funds will be drawn from, a description of the purchase, and the purchase’s intended use to be reviewed by the Board and approval requires a simple Board majority vote.
    • Example: Purchasing professional repair services for the Embroidery Machine
    • Estimate: $110 (including tax)
    • Account: Funds will be drawn from the Fabric Arts account
    • Description: Professional repair services for the Embroidery Machine from Sewing Machines Etc

Rescinding approval for a reoccurring Purchase Order requires a simple Board majority vote.
