At the end of the tax year, Revenue Canada office sent an inspector to
- ^+ O: v/ i- L" J( ] audit the books of a local hospital. While the auditor was checking the 8 X" y; X9 r% t
books he turned to the CFO of the hospital and said, "I notice you buy a

( k9 s4 b# l3 Q, R: A- B little left to be of any use?"
