THIRTIETH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT


For the Year Ending December 31, 1941


Plymouth, Mass., January, 1942 Town of Plymouth.


To the Board of Selectmen,


Gentlemen:


I submit herewith report of the financial transactions of the Town of Plymouth, for the year ending December 31, 1941. The schedules follow the customary form and order, excepting B. and E., which have been somewhat changed to conform with the "Segregated Appropriation Budget" adopted last year by a vote of the Town. The schedules are as follows:


Schedule A. Cash Receipts and Payments as reported to the Division of Accounts, of the Commonwealth.


Schedule B. Departmental and all special appropria- tions and such receipts as may be legally expended with- out specific appropriation, with all payments from same classified as to purpose. W. P. A. projects are also shown in this schedule.


Schedule C. Estimated Receipts, other than from taxes, as used by the Assessors in making the 1941 tax rate. This also shows the actual cash receipts from same sources.


Schedule D. Revenue Account for 1941.


Schedule E. Excess and Deficiency Account and a list of all unexpended appropriation balances closed into it at the end of the year.


Schedule F. Balance Sheet, January 1, 1942.


-4-


Schedule G. 1 Bonded Indebtedness, January 1, 1942. Schedule H. S


Schedule I. List of Trust Funds, not including the January, 1942, dividends.


Schedule J. Calculation of the Town's Borrowing Ca- pacity, on January 1, 1942.


No department has an overdraft and no unpaid bills are reported.


A new law (Chapter 179 of the Acts of 1941) will, here- after, make the payment of bills contracted in excess of annual appropriations a hard matter. Briefly stated, it requires three separate certificates to be made out and attached to each such bill or payroll, after which a four- fifths vote at the regular town meeting, or a nine-tenths vote at a special town meeting, is required to appropriate money for its payment.


All department heads were notified of this legislation.


The Excess and Deficiency balance (Surplus) shows a net gain of about $50,000. for the year. About two-fifths of this was from excess receipts and three-fifths from return of unexpended appropriation balances. It must be taken into consideration, however, that much of this was occasioned by the sudden change in unemployment reducing calls for welfare and other aid while reimburse- ments were coming back from the heavy expenditures of the previous year. This condition is, I believe, quite general through the state. A very considerable reduction in receipts from many sources may now be expected.


The return of $4,000, unexpended, from appropriations for salaries and personal services was largely the effect of dividing the budgets. Under the old system of single appropriations for departments most of this would have been expended for other purposes.


Respectfully submitted, ELMER R. HARLOW, Town Accountant.
