REFERENCE 40 eliminates the carry-over from one period to another of uncollectible dues or other charges on members who have been suspended. The figure for “Total Current Liabilities” is also entered in the Assets column in the space designated “Less: Current Liabilities” and is subtracted from “Total Current Assets” to obtain “Net Current Assets.” If liabilities exceed assets, the “Total Current Assets’’ should be subtracted from “Current Liabilities” and the resulting figure shown in (parenthesis). INVESTMENTS — Trustees are to itemize investment assets on the appropriate lines provided for that purpose under “Investments.” Figures showing the value of “Real Estate” and “Furniture” should be obtained from the secretary of the council home corporation. ANNUAL BUDGET — It is strongly recommended that an annual budget be prepared in November or December of each year following guidelines established by the council. After adoption of the budget, it is good practice to transfer funds from the council’s general account to a savings account, as appropriate. BOARD OF TRUSTEES — Section 145 of the Order’s Charter Constitution and Laws outlines the duties of the board of trustees and its chairman, the grand knight. Every trustee is required to be familiar with this section and its impact on the council’s finances and obligations . . . and his duties. Section 122 details the manner in which the council manages its funds. Other sections dealing with the disposition of council monies and funds are 139-1, 139-3, 140 -1, 140-2, 140-3 and 140-4. Council by-laws may also contain laws and rules governing the expenditure of monies. These by-laws are subject to
REFERENCE 41 approval by the supreme advocate in a manner consistent with the Charter Constitution and Laws and the board of directors. HOME CORPORATIONS — Council officers and members should be well acquainted with all phases of operations where home corporations are concerned. Regular and complete reports should be made to the council by the corporation trustees. There should also be a periodic
