If the Town continues to <br />use Quickbooks, then the fund trial balances should be segregated by class to ensure that all funds <br />balance and the due to/from's are properly adjusted. <br /> <br />Status <br /> <br />Although the Town acquired the accounting software suitable for fund accounting, it did not implement <br />this recommendation during 2005.
