    The issue about debits is a good one though. Here is a typical circuit accounts report .

    At the end of last assembly brothers we had 4300 dollars on hand. With those funds available we your elders resolved to make a donation of 2500 dollars to the World Wide Work, and a further 800 to the Assembly Hall MAINTENANCE FUND.

    At the start of this assembly we thus had 1000 dollars on hand. The expenses incurred so far with the running of this assembly are 8000 dollars. Contributions so far are 4300 dollars leaving a deficit of 2700 dollars. Thank you for your attention to this matter brothers.

    Now this is disgusting. What should happen is that only AFTER an assembly is finished should funds be sent to the WWW. They are resolving to send money to the WWW guaranteeing there is going to be a deficit. In the example above if 2500 had not been sent to the WWW then the assembly would be only 200 dollars in deficit.
