To be honest, I'm not quite sure what sort of arrangement I'm
interested in. But before I approach my accountant to suggest that I
donate a disk to the IGLU mirror, I want to understand what's
happening.
My accountant gets upset when 5 shekels are missing from petty cash,
and I'm delighted that he is that detail-oriented. But this means
that I have to give him a complete picture of what I'm planning to do.
I definitely cannot say, "I would like to buy a disk and donate to an
organization that doesn't have official amuta standing." If I say
that, my accountant will think that I've gone totally insane (rather
than the partial insanity to which he's accustomed).
As others have said on this list, a business cannot simply do what it
wants with money or property. Rather, the business must account for
every shekel that its spends, and have receipts to show for it.
Describing the donation as colocation strikes me as the best way to
handle things. I'll ask my accountant what he thinks; I would guess
that there's a 75 percent chance he'll OK it.
Then I can find out how much a disk costs, and see if I can afford the
donation. :-)
