“At the last meeting I read out the Audit. Since then I have been doing some investigating.

In regards to the Super that had been incorrectly paid it was because Karen had put the $450 in the wrong

part of the database. I have gone through the wages book and worked out what the girls should have been

paid. It only turned out to be the last 6 months which was not as bad as I thought it was going to be.

The total amount owed is $1,126.96 and maybe a little interest. I am not sure as yet I have to ring the

Super people in regards to how I rectify this problem.

We will also need to purchase the register for the Tuckshop that has been talked about for the last few years

and nothing done.

receipted properly so we need to make sure that what comes over the counter is being tracked and banked.

We need also to make sure that any money that is taken is to be receipted and balanced before banking.

In regards to the invoices, I stress that you need to pass any invoices that you may get and give them to me

in my mail tray in the P & C room. If I give you a cheque, please write the cheque number on the invoice

or docket.

Bank reconciliation – there were a a couple of double entries which have now been fixed.

That is all the problems that came up in the audit. I am hoping that once these procedures are put in place,

this will rectify them and we will have a better audit next year.

The Tuckshop so far has made a profit of $6,077.50 & the Uniform Shop, profit of $6,443.18. We have

had to pay out the accounts for uniforms which came to $11,747 hence why profit not so big for the

beginning of the year.

The bank balance as of Feb 29 was $151,640.74.

I would like to have the accounts that were paid in February which were $21,505.06 be ratified.

The breakup of the amount is as follows:-

CBA Fees $ 64.74

Donations $ 945.00

Wages $ 3,235.41

T/S Expenses $ 3,645.73

Xmas Fair $ 760.00

Uniform Shop $11,747.02

Stationery $ 7.15

Accountant $ 1,100.00

Guess what? It is time! In the audit it was brought up that not all funds banked were

TOTAL $21,205.06

Deposit amount:-

In the interim until cash register set up, Raelene requested that Tick Sheet be implemented again to balance

takings to banking. Adding machine to be used and tapes attached to tick sheet.

Moved: Raelene McBride Seconded: Heather Fortescue

With regards to cash register, contact office equipment suppliers and check what is available and other
