After any corrections are handled, the chair simply declares the minutes approved. The treasurer's report shouldn't be accepted or approved at all, simply placed on file.

I'm just not sure that they answer whatever you are asking. For example, what do you mean by "secretary and treasurer minutes"? There really are no "treasurer's minutes". The treasurer gives a "report". As Mr. Martin stated, this report should not be formally approved or accepted but is merely placed on file. When the treasurer has completed giving his report, the chair can thank him for his report and then immediately calls up the next item of business.
