- 2 - <br /> ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT <br /> The accounting department continues to keep their records in <br /> very good condition. As a result, the. staff is able to satisfy the <br /> reporting demands placed on the manual accounting system by local <br /> departments, state and federal agencies . <br /> Our audit work was delayed and performed later in the year <br /> than usual due to changeover during the year of the assistant <br /> accountants ' position. Other departments also overburden this office <br /> with work or requests for assistance on projects or duties that are <br /> not the responsibility of the accountants office. The accountant may <br /> be responsible to act on information requests but it is the requesting <br /> departments ' duty to take such information and apply it to their job <br /> needs . <br /> TREASURER/TAX COLLECTOR'S OFFICE <br /> The outstanding tax balances were generally in balance with <br /> the accountants ' general ledger balance. <br /> 1) Investments - All purchases and retirements of <br /> investments were not reflected in the cash receipt <br /> and disbursement records . For the accountant to <br /> reflect the proper investment portfolio of the town, <br /> the recording and transferral of this information is <br /> essential. Rollovers of the same investment also <br /> were not reflected in the accounting records . <br /> CHARLEs E.DIPESA&CO.,BOSTON,MASS.(617)423-3555 <br />
