Report of Director of Accounts


February 10, 1941


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 ac- counts of the town of Andover for the year ending December 31, 1940, 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 ending December 31, 1940, and submit the following report thereon :


The records of financial transactions of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town, or committing bills for collection, were examined, checked, and verified by a compari- son with the reports and the records in the office of the town ac- countant.


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 balance sheet, showing the financial condition of the town on December 31, 1940, was prepared and is appended to this report.


47


Approved vouchers and pay-rolls on file were examined and 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 re- corded receipts were analyzed and compared with the town ac- countant's ledger and with the records of the departments making payments to the treasurer. The payments by the treasurer were compared with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the dis- bursements of town funds.


The treasurer's cash balance on December 31, 1940, was proved by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit and by actual count of the cash in the office.


The recorded payments on account of maturing debt and interest were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities and coupons on file, the outstanding bonds and coupons being listed and reconciled with statements fur- nished 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 according to the previous examination were audited, and all subsequent commitments of taxes and assessments were proved and compared with the asses- sors' warrants for their collection. The payments to the treasurer by the collector were checked to the treasurer's and the town ac- countant's books, the abatements as recorded were compared with the assessors' record of abatements granted, and the out- standing accounts were listed and reconciled with the town ac- countant's ledger accounts.


48


Attention is called to the uncollected taxes, motor vehicle excise taxes, and assessments of prior years appearing on the balance sheet, and it is recommended that a determined effort be made to secure their settlement in 1941.


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 comparison with the receipts on file, and the payments to the town treasurer were compared with the treasurer's cash book.


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.


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.


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 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 in- vestments of the several school funds in the custody of the treas- urer 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 and town clerk's cash, summaries of the tax, assessment, tax title, depart- mental, water and sewer accounts, as well as tables showing the


49


condition and transactions of the trust and municipal contribu- tory retirement funds.


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


Respectfully submitted,


HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts
