March 1, 1940.


To the Board of Selectmen,


Mr. Irving F. French, Chairman,


Tewksbury, Massachusetts.


Gentlemen:


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the Town of Tewksbury for the period from July 12, 1938 to Decem- ber 4, 1939, 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.


70


Mr. Theodore N. Waddell,


Director of Accounts,


Department of Corporations and Taxation.


State House, Boston.


Sir:


In accordance with your instructions, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the Town of Tewksbury for the period from July 12, 1938, the date of the previous audit, to December 4, 1939, and report thereon as follows:


The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the sev- eral departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or com- mitting bills for collection, were examined and checked.


The inadequate methods used at present in keeping the accounts of the town are worthy of consideration on the part of the citizens. Under the present method of accounting it is impossible for the select- men to know the financial condition of the town. The board of select- men is, in reality, the director of the municipal corporation, and should have at its service books and records which will furnish complete in- formation as to the finances of the town, in order that it may be en- abled to plan the work most essential to be done with the means at hand.


I do not believe in, nor do I recommend, a complicated set of books for towns; nevertheless, there should be kept in a single de- partment certain general accounting records which show the assets and liabilities, the appropriations made and the charges against them, as well as a detail of all receipts and payments. These accounts, if kept up to date at all times, will enable the taxpayer to see at a glance the source from which revenue is received and the purposes for which payments are made, as well as the financial condition of the town.


The appropriation accounts as kept by the town auditor were analyzed and checked with the duplicate accounts kept by the treas- urer, general ledger accounts were compiled, and a balance sheet, showing the financial condition of the town on December 4, 1939, was prepared and is appended to this report.


The balance sheet indicates that several accounts were overdrawn on December 4, 1939, contrary to Section 31, Chapter 44, General Laws.


71


In connection with the overdrafts in the Chapter 81 and 90 high- way accounts, attention is called to the fact that expenditures for highway projects carried on by the town in conjunction with the State and County may not exceed the aggregate amount of the appropria- tions voted by the town, together with the amounts actually received on account of allotments. Whenever the reimbursements from the State and County are not received in time to provide funds for pay- ment of pay-rolls and materials, temporary loans under the provisions of Section 6A, Chapter 44, General Laws, may be issued by the treas- urer.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were analyzed and veri- fied by a comparison with the records of the several departments col- lecting money for the town and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury, while the recorded payments were checked with the approved bills and pay-rolls on file and with the town auditor's records.


The cash balance on December 4, 1939, was verified by actual count of the cash in the office and by a reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement received from the bank of deposit.


The savings bank books representing the investment of the trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer were ex- amined and listed, the income and withdrawals being verified.


The payments on account of maturing debt and interest were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securi- ties and coupons on file.


The tax titles held by the town were listed from the records of the town treasurer and all transactions pertaining thereto were veri- fied.


The books and accounts of the collector of taxes were examined and checked. The tax accounts outstanding at the time of the pre- vious examination were audited, and all subsequent commitments were verified by a comparison with the warrants issued by the board of assessors for their collection. The recorded collections were checked with the commitment books, the abatements were checked with the assessors' record of abatements granted, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.


Since the date of the previous audit, further proofs of payment have increased the shortage of the former collector to the amount of $169.22, which should be provided for.


72


Verification of the outstanding accounts was obtained by mail- ing notices to a number of persons whose accounts showed as un- paid on the books, and from the replies received thereto, it appears that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


The record of receipts of the town clerk on account of dog, sport- ing, and town licenses issued was examined and checked, the pay- ments to the treasurer and to the Division of Fisheries and Game being verified.


An examination was also made of the books and accounts of the sealer of weights and measures. The field books were checked with the office record of receipts on account of sealing and adjusting weights and measures, the cash book was footed throughout, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The financial records of the public welfare department were ex- amined and checked. The record of charges was analyzed, the pay- ments to the treasurer were verified, the disallowances were checked, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.


In addition to the departments and accounts mentioned, the avail- able records of all other departments receiving money for the town were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The surety bonds furnished by the several officials for the faith- ful performance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form.


In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's, collector's, and town clerk's cash, summaries of the tax and departmental accounts, to- gether with tables showing the transactions and condition of the trust and investment funds.


During the progress of the audit cooperation was received from the several officials for which, in behalf of my assistants and for myself, I wish to express appreciation.


Respectfully submitted,


HERMAN B. DINE,


Assistant Director of Accounts.
