T-A photo TOWNSHIP of HAY - • -AUDITOR'S REPORT The Reeve, Councillors and Ratepayers, The Corporation of the Township of Hay, Zurich, Ontario. Gentlemen: I have audited the accounts and records of the Township of Hay for the year ended December 31, 1968, and have pre- pared therefrom the statements listed in the index accompany- ing this report. Operations The operations for the year resulted in a surplus of $7,029.53, after taking prior years surplus of $15,395.60 into 1968 revenue and providing $10,000.00 to increase the reserve for working funds. General The records of the Hay Township School Area were not maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting procedures. The cash receipts book had not been written up past April of 1968. Numerous errors were made in the pay- ment of accounts and the recording of payments in the cheque register as to the amount of the cheque and the distribution. It would appear that the Secretary-Treasurer never reconciled the bank account, a procedure which should be done every month. Many errors were made in maintaining payroll records and most of the T4 slips sent to 1968 employees are incorrect. The tax levy to Hay Township School Area from Stephen Township in the amount of $311.13 had not been deposited by March 31, 1969, although it was apparently forwarded to Hay Township School Area in December, 1968. The balance of a Federal Sales Tax Rebate on school con- struction costs incurred in 1966 and 1967 has not been applied for. On April 25, 1969, a Hay Township School Area cheque sent to the Receiver General of Canada for $2,329.35 to pay the balance of 1968 Income Tax and Canada Pension Plan de- ductions results in an overpayment of $1,969.03. The accounts and records of the Township of Hay were maintained in a satisfactory manner and your Clerk-Treasurer is to be commended for his work. Auditor's Opinion Subject to the qualifications concerning the Hay Township School Area I hereby report that in my opinion 1. The financial transactions which have come under notice have been within the powers of the municipality. 2. The audit has been conducted in accordance with the in. structions of the Department of Municipal Affairs. 3. The financial statements present fairly the financial posi- tion of the municipality as at December 31, 1968, and the results •of its operations for the year ended on that date. 4. The financial statements are not prepared on a basis con- sistant with prior years but have been changed to conform with the new financial statements designed by the Depart- ment of Municipal Affairs.
