To the Board of Selectmen


Mr. Robert G. Byrne, Chairman Swampscott, Massachusetts


Gentlemen:


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Swampscott for the period from January 1 to June 30, 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.


TNW:0


Mr. Theodore N. Waddell Director of Accounts


Department of Corporations and Taxation


State House, Boston


Sir:


As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Swampscott for the period from January 1 to June 30, 1938, and submit the following report thereon:


The financial transactions of the town as recorded on the books of the several departments were examined and checked in detail.


The town accountant's ledger accounts were analyzed. The appropriations and transfers as recorded were checked with the town clerk's record of town meetings and with the records of the finance committee, while other accounts were compared with infor- mation in the departments in which the transactions originated. A trial balance was taken off, proving the ledger to be in balance, and a balance sheet, showing the financial condition of the town on June 30, 1938, was prepared and is appended to this report.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked. The recorded receipts were checked with the town accountant's ledger and with the records of the departments collect- ing money for the town, while the payments were compared with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the expenditures. The cash balance on September 12, 1938, was verified by a reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks in which town funds are deposited.


The records of tax titles held by the town were examined. The taxes and assessments added to the tax title account were compared with the collector's records, the reported redemptions were verified, and the tax titles on hand were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.


The accounts of the town collector were examined and checked in detail.

TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


The commitments of taxes, assessments and of departmental and water accounts receivable were verified. The recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements as recorded were checked with the records of the departments authorized to grant such abatements, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.


Verification of the outstanding accounts was made by mailing notices to a large number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town. Among the replies received was a claim from a tax payer to the effect that his water rates of 1938 in the amount of $13.00 were paid to the former collector. This claim was investigated and upon the receipt of proof of payment, the above amount was charged to the former collector who paid the money to the town treasurer on October 17, 1938.


The town clerk's record of sporting and dog licenses were exam- ined, the payments to the State being verified with receipts on file and the payments to the town treasurer being compared with the treasurer's cash book.


The records of receipts of the sealer of weights and measures, the selectmen, and the building and plumbing inspectors, as well as of the police, school, library, park, health and cemetery departments, were examined. The recorded receipts were checked and compared with the payments to the treasurer and with the accountant's books.


Appended to this report in addition to the balance sheet, are tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's and the collector's cash, as well as summaries of the tax, assessment, departmental, and water accounts.


For the cooperation received from the several town officials during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.


Respectfully submitted,


HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts.
