A Surplus Balance of $91,008.40 is carried forward to 1956, making a net gain of $6,391.55 for 1955.
GENERAL FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Assessors' Recapitulation Sheet for the year 1955 showed the Esti- mates of Receipts, including Income Taxes, Corporation Taxes and Meal Taxes from the State, as a total of $861,292.80 and was used in computing the 1955 Tax Rate.
The actual amount received by the town was $825,880.49 or a loss of $35,412.31 closed out to the Revenue Account. The Revenue Account showed a net loss of $8,873.96 for 1955 which was closed out to the Excess and Deficiency Account. The Excess and Deficiency Account was increased by $6,391.55 due to earned interest on investments.
The Free Cash as of January 1, 1956 amounts to $8,442.62 as certified by the State Division of Accounts. The normal borrowing capacity is $13,375.00 but under the provisions of Chapter 56 the town may borrow an additional amount of $1,283,555.00 after receiving an approval from the State Emer- gency Finance Board.
I wish to thank the town officials and department heads and employees who have co-operated with this department throughout the year.
Respectfully submitted,
