WAMC

For WAMC to operate as fiscally efficient today as it did just ten years ago, with a 39.6% ratio of salaries to revenues, means that the station's current payroll is bloated by about $430,000. In other words, WAMC is doling out $430K more in salaries today than necessary or reasonable, based on its own earlier fiscal performance, and also based on the comparative fiscal performances of other publicly-supported stations in the northeast and mid-atlantic. Simply put, WAMC is on a spending spree with your money, splurging $2.2 million of it on salaries, mostly managerial payroll. Based on its own performance history, WAMC has already proven that it could get by on a comparative $1.77 million in salaries.
