Report of Director of Accounts


February 20, 1939


To the Board of Selectmen


Mr. Howell F. Shepard, Chairman Andover, Massachusetts


GENTLEMEN :


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Andover for the year ending December 31, 1938, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Herman B. Dine, Assistant Director of Accounts.


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 :


In accordance with your instructions I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Andover for the year end- ing December 31, 1938, and submit the following report thereon :


The records of the financial transactions of the several depart- ments receiving or disbursing money for the town, or committing bills for collection, were examined, checked, and verified by a comparison with the reports and the records in the office of the town accountant.


The ledger accounts were analyzed, the appropriations and transfers being checked with the town clerk's records of town meetings and with the records of the finance committee. A bal- ance sheet, showing the financial condition of the town on De- cember 31, 1938, was prepared and is appended to this report.


Approved vouchers and pay-rolls on file were examined and


35


compared with the entries in the classification book and the ex- penditures as recorded in the classification book were checked with the ledger accounts.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked. The cash book additions were verified, and the recorded receipts were analyzed and compared with the town accountant's ledger and with the records of the departments making payments to the treasurer. The payments by the treas- urer were compared with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the disbursement of town funds.


The treasurer's cash balance on January 4, 1939, was proved by a reconciliation of the bank balances with statements fur- nished by the banks of deposit and by an actual count of the cash in office.


The recorded payments on account of maturing debt and in- terest were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities and coupons on file, the outstanding coupons being listed and reconciled with statements furnished by the banks.


The savings bank books representing the investments of the trust funds in the custody of the town treasurer were examined and listed, the income being proved and the disbursements being verified.


The records of tax titles held by the town were examined and checked. The amounts added to the tax title account were com- pared with the collector's records, the reported redemptions were checked with the receipts as recorded on the treasurer's cash book, and the tax titles on hand were listed and proved.


The books and accounts of the tax collector were examined and checked. The accounts outstanding at the time of the previous examination were audited, and all subsequent commitments of taxes and assessments were proved and compared with the as- sessors' warrants for their collection. The payments to the treas- urer by the collector were checked to the treasurer's and the town accountant's books, the abatements as recorded were com- pared with the assessors' records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the town accountant's ledger accounts.


Attention is again called to the uncollected balance of $2,668.78 appearing on the balance sheet, of unapportioned sewer assess-


36


ments of 1926 and prior years. As these accounts have been out- standing for a number of years, it is recommended that a de- termined effort be made to secure their settlement in the year 1939.


The town clerk's records of sporting, dog, and town licenses, as well as permits, recording fees, etc., were examined and checked. The payments to the State were verified by a comparison with the receipts on file, and the payments to the town treasurer were compared with the treasurer's cash book.


Payments to the town treasurer of the money due the county for dog licenses should be made on the first Monday of each month in accordance with Section 147, Chapter 140, General Laws, as amended.


The surety bonds of the officials required by law to furnish them were examined and found to be in proper form.


The records of departmental accounts receivable were ex- amined. The payments to the treasurer were verified, the abate- ments were checked, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger accounts.


It was noted that a portion of the receipts collected at the convalescent home in the town infirmary is used to compensate the matron for services rendered at the convalescent home. This procedure is contrary to the provisions of Section 35, Chapter 41, and Section 53, Chapter 44, General Laws, and it is recom- mended that the entire compensation of the matron be paid from an appropriation provided for the purpose and that all receipts be paid into the town treasury.


The records of water and sewer charges were examined and checked. The recorded collections were compared with the pay- ments to the treasurer, the abatements as recorded were verified, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the town accountant's ledger accounts.


Attention is called to outstanding sewer connections which are long overdue. It is recommended that a determined effort be made to collect these accounts and that, in the future, a deposit be required in advance, based on the estimated cost of the instal- lation.


Verification of the outstanding tax, assessment, departmental, water, and sewer accounts was made by sending notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing


37


money to the town, and from the replies received it appears that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


The savings bank books and securities representing the invest- ments of the several school funds in the custody of the treasurer of the trustees, of the Memorial Hall Library Funds in the custody of the library treasurer, and of the John Cornell Coal and Wood Fund in the custody of the treasurer of the trustees were examined and listed. The income was proved and the transactions were verified.


In addition to the accounts mentioned, the records of all other departments collecting money for the town or rendering bills for collection were examined and checked in detail.


Appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, are tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's, tax collector's, and town clerk's cash, summaries of the tax, assessment, tax title, departmental, water and sewer accounts, as well as tables show- ing the condition and transactions of the trust and municipal contributory retirement funds.


For the co-operation extended by the several town officials during the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.


Respectfully submitted, HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts
