REPORT OF AN AUDIT of the Accounts of the Town of Milford For the Period from JANUARY 1, 1931, to SEPTEMBER 17, 1932. Made in Accordance with the Provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws.
DECEMBER 22, 1932.
December 22, 1932.
To the Board of Selectmen,
Mr. P. Eugene Casey, Chairman, Milford, Massachusetts.
Gentlemen:
I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Milford for the period from January 1, 1931, to September 17, 1932, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44 of the General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Edward H. Fenton, Chief Accountant of this Division.
Very truly yours, THEODORE N. WADDELL, Director of Accounts.
Mr. Theodore N. Waddell,
Director of Accounts,
Department of Corporations and Taxation, State House, Boston.
Sir:
As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Milford for the period from Jan-
17
uary 1, 1931, to September 17, 1932, and submit the following report thereon :-.
The financial transactions of the town, as recorded on the books of the several departments collecting money for the town or committing bills for collection, were examined and checked for the period of the audit.
The books and accounts of the town accountant were examined and checked with the treasurer's books and with the records in the several departments. The receipts, as recorded, were checked with the treasurer's cash book, while the payments were checked with the warrants of the select- men authorizing the disbursement of town funds.
The ledger accounts were analyzed in detail. The ap- propriations as recorded on the ledger were checked with the town clerk's records of appropriations voted, the recorded transfers were compared with those authorized by the town and the finance committee, the necessary correcting and ad- justing entries were made, and a balance sheet, which is ap- pended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on September 17, 1932.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were compared with the records in the several departments col- lecting money for the town and with the other sources from which money had been paid into the town treasury. The recorded payments were checked with the warrants author- izing the treasurer to disburse town funds and with the books of the town accountant.
The cash book footings were proved, the recorded re- ceipts were analyzed, the cash on hand was verified by an actual count, and the bank balance was reconciled with state- ments furnished by the banks of deposit. No bank recon- ciliation subsequent to January 31, 1932, was on file, and it was therefore necessary to sort, arrange numerically, and check to the check books about fifteen thousand checks in order to effect a reconciliation of the bank statement of Sep- tember 17, 1932, with the treasurer's check books. This required a great deal of time and labor and tended to increase
18
the cost of the audit. Bank statements should be reconciled at least monthly and the treasurer's cash book balance should be proved periodically with the balance in the bank and on hand.
The reconciliation of the treasurer's cash was further complicated by the very large number of checks, totaling over $55,000, which were drawn by the treasurer to pay items on the selectmen's warrants to the treasurer but which re- mained unissued on September 17, 1932, due to the inability of the treasurer to borrow a sufficient amount of money on temporary notes in anticipation of revenue.
An explanation of the inability of the treasurer to finance properly the activities of the town may be found by referring to the appended balance sheet showing the financial condition of the town on September 17, 1932. It is evident therefrom that, due to the lack of proper enforcement of tax collections, the treasurer has been hindered from complying with the provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws, as affecting the issu- ance and payment of temporary revenue notes; and although the town has a very substantial balance in the surplus rev- enue account, namely, $164,092 93, this sum was more than offset by uncollected taxes of the year 1931 and of prior years, amounting on September 17, 1932, to $181,534.17. The sur- plus revenue of the town is, therefore, not available for appro- priation until the levies of 1931 and of prior years are settled, at which time the balance sheet should show a very satisfac- tory financial condition of the town.
A table showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's cash as of September 17, 1932, is appended to this report.
The savings bank books representing the investment of cemetery perpetual care funds in the custody of the town treasurer were examined and listed, the income and disburse- ments being verified.
The debt and interest payments were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities and coupons on file.
The books and accounts of the tax collector were exam- ined and checked in detail. The cash on hand was verified
19
by an actual count and the bank account was reconciled with a statement furnished by the bank. The taxes outstanding at the time of the previous examination were audited, and all subsequent commitment lists of miscellaneous taxes and assessments for the levies of 1930, 1931 and.1982 were proved. The abatements, as recorded, were checked with the asses- sors' records of abatement granted, the payments to the treas- urer were verified by a comparison with the treasurer's cash book, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved with the accountant's ledger accounts.
The outstanding accounts were further verified by mail- ing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
To determine the correct amount outstanding on the several tax levies, it was necessary to do considerable detailed checking, which consumed a great deal of time and added materially to the cost of the audit.
The collector is now making a determined effort to close out the levies of 1929, 1930 and 1931, as well as the un- apportioned and apportioned sewer assessments, all of which are long overdue.
In the examination of the sewer assessments accounts, it was again found, as in the previous audit, that the require- ments of Section 13, Chapter 80, General Laws, had not been complied with. All unapportioned assessments committed prior to April second of a given year and remaining unpaid at the time the tax bills are sent out should be added to the tax bills, while all apportioned sewer assessments and com- mitted interest thereon should also be added to the tax bills as they become due each year.
Summary tables showing the condition of the taxes and assessment accounts as of September 17, 1932, are appended to this report.
The town clerk's records of dog and of sporting licenses issued were examined and checked with the stubs on file,
20
and the payments to the state and county treasurers, respec- tively, were checked to the receipts on file.
The records of licenses issued by the selectmen were checked with the records of licenses granted and the collec- tions were checked to the treasurer's cash book.
In addition to the departments specifically mentioned, the books and accounts of all other departments collecting money for the town or committing bills for collection were examined and checked, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.
It is recommended that all departments sending out bills for collection on account of services rendered or materials furnished by the town promptly furnish the town accountant with a detailed list of such charges and subsequent credits, so that his books may at all times reflect the true condition of the accounts receivable.
The surety bonds of the several town officials were ex- amined and found to be in proper form.
For the courtesies extended during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted,
EDWARD H. FENTON, Chief Accountant.
