Which statement best describes the Treasurer's duties?

• A. Receive, record and deposit FFA funds and issue receipts.
• B. Plan publicity and newsletters.
• C. Welcome guests.
• D. Maintain a scrapbook.

Answer: (A)

The key duty being tested is financial stewardship and record-keeping. The Treasurer is responsible for handling the organization’s money: receiving funds, recording every financial transaction, depositing funds, and issuing receipts. This combination creates a clear, traceable record of all income and expenditures, which supports accurate budgeting, reporting to members, and accountability at meetings.

Plans for publicity and newsletters are typically handled by a public relations or communications role, welcoming guests is a hospitality/secretary-type task, and maintaining a scrapbook is the job of a historian. These activities are important but belong to other offices, not the Treasurer, which is why the financial duties described are the best fit.
