To the Board of Selectmen Mr. John A. Armstrong, Chairman Plymouth, Massachusetts.
Gentlemen:
I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Plymouth for the year end- ing December 31, 1944, 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.
-119-
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 Plymouth for the year end- ing December 31, 1944, and submit the following report 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, checked, and reconciled with the town account- ant's records.
The books and accounts in the town accountant's office were examined and checked in detail. The general and appropriation ledger accounts were analyzed and proved. The recorded receipts were compared with the treasurer's cash book, while the payments, as entered, were checked with the treasurer's cash book and with the treasury warrants.
The appropriations and transfers as recorded on the ledger were checked with the town clerk's record of town meetings and with the records of the advisory committee.
A trial balance was taken off, proving the accounts to be in balance, and a balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condi- tion of the town on December 31, 1944. This balance sheet indicates that the town is in excellent financial condition.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked. The recorded receipts were analyzed and compared with the accountant's ledger, with departmental records, and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury, while
-120-
the payments were checked with the selectmen's war- rants authorizing the disbursement of town funds.
The cash book footings were verified and the cash balance on March 6, 1945, was proved by verification of the cash and cash memoranda in the office, and by recon- ciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit.
The recorded payments on account of maturing debt and interest were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities and coupons on file.
The savings bank books and securities representing the investment of the trust, investment, and retirement funds in the custody of the town treasurer were exam- ined and listed. The income was proved and all recorded transactions were verified.
The records of tax titles held by the town were exam- ined and checked. The amounts added to the tax title account were compared with the collector's records, the reported redemptions were checked, and the tax titles on hand were listed, reconciled with the accountant's ledger account, and compared with the records in the Registry of Deeds.
The books and accounts of the tax collector were examined and checked in detail. The taxes and assess- ments outstanding at the time of the previous examina- tion, and all subsequent commitments, were audited and proved to the warrants issued for their collection. The recorded receipts were checked with the payments to the treasurer and with the accountant's books, the abate- ments as recorded were compared with the assessors' records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the account- ant's ledger accounts.
The records of departmental and water accounts re- ceivable were examined and checked in detail. The re- corded receipts were checked with the payments to the
1
--
-121-
treasurer and with the accountant's books, the abate- ments as recorded were compared with the records in the departments authorized to grant abatements, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.
The outstanding tax, assessment, departmental, and water accounts were verified by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
The records of licenses and permits issued by the selectmen, town clerk, and health department were ex- amined and checked in detail, the payments to the State and the town being verified.
The surety bonds of the several town officials required by law to file them were examined and found to be in proper form.
The records of receipts of the sealer of weights and measures and of the school department, as well as of all other departments collecting money or committing bills for collection, were checked with the treasurer's and the accountant's books.
In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's and the tax collector's cash, summaries of the tax, assessment, tax title, departmental, and water accounts, together with tables showing the transactions and condition of the trust, investment, and retirement funds.
For the cooperation received from the several officials of the town during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appre- ciation.
Respectfully submitted,
HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts.
