TOWN OF WAKEFIELD


REVENUE ACCOUNTS


The surplus revenue of $33,439.24 as shown by the balance sheet is a gain of $14,728.13 over 1917 and is accounted for largely by unexpended balances of $18,004.99, excess estimated revenue receipts of $11,574.31, and State Aid and Betterment Assessments in excess of the Assessors' estimate.


RECOMMENDATIONS


I would recommend that the town appropriate from its surplus revenue the sum of $25,000.00 in place of having the same enter the tax levy, leaving a balance of $8,439.24, which I think will be sufficient to take care of any deficit in the 1917-1918 overlays to come.


The accounts of the Treasurer have been examined and agree with the Accountant's books, cash balances have been verified by bank statements. All permanent and temporary loans cancelled during the year by the Treasurer have been examined and found as reported.


I take this opportunity to thank the Honorable Board of Selectmen, and all other Town Officials who have co-operated and assisted in the work of this department.


Respectfully submitted,


HARRY A. SIMONDS, Town Accountant
