SUMMARY OF ESSENTIAL FEATURES OF STATE AUDIT REPORT
Published by the town clerk in accordance with General Laws, Chapter 44, Section 40.
December 12, 1946
To the Board of Selectmen, Mr. Albert Bindon, Chairman Berkley, Massachusetts
Gentlemen :
I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Berkley for the period from May 27, 1945 to October 26, 1946, made in accordance with the pro- visions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Herman B. Dine, Assistant Direc- tor of Accounts.
Very truly yours, FRANCIS X. LANG. Director of Accounts
Mr. Francis X. Lang, Director of Accounts :
As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Berkley for the period from May 27, 1945, the date of the previous examination, to October 26, 1946, the following report being submitted thereon :
The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or committing bills for collection, were examined and checked with the books of the accounting officer and the treasurer.
The books and accounts of the accounting officer were examined, checked, and compared with the records of the several departments in which money is collected and with the records of the town treasurer.
The general and appropriation accounts in the ledger were analyzed, a trial balance was taken off, and a balance

ANNUAL REPORT
sheet, showing the financial condition of the town on October 26, 1946, was prepared and is appended to this report.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were ex- amined and checked in detail. The cash book was footed throughout, the recorded receipts were analyzed and com- pared with the departmental records of payments to the treas- urer and with the other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury, while the records of disbursements were compared with the accounting officer's books and with the treasury warrants.
The treasurer's cash balance on October 26, 1946, was proved by actual count of the cash in the office and by re- conciliation of the bank balances with statements received from the banks in which town funds are deposited.
The sayings bank books and securities representing the investment of the trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer were examined and listed. The income was proved and the transfers to the town were verified.
The tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were examined and listed. The amounts transferred from tax levies to the tax title account were reconciled with the tax collector's accounts, the disclaimers and foreclosures were verified, and the redemptions of tax titles and sales of tax titles and tax possessions were compared with the treasurer's receipts. The tax titles and tax possessions were further verified by checking with the records in the Registry of Deeds.
The books and accounts of the collector of taxes were ex- amined and checked. The tax and assessment accounts out- standing according to the previous audit and all subsequent commitments were audited and compared with the warrants issued for their collection. The recorded collections were checked and compared with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements were checked with the assessors' records of abate- ments granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved with the accounting officer's ledger.
Verification of the outstanding accounts was made by sending notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as dwing money to the town, the replies re- ceived thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are cor- rect.

The financial records of the town clerk were examined and checked, The records of dog and sporting licenses were checked and the payments to the town treasurer and the State were verified.
