It depends on the person and the group, but you can expect to spend maybe two to five hours a month plus meetings doing the treasurer's job. You also may need a block of time before the school year starts to set up a transaction system (setting your files up in Quicken, for example).

I'm the treasurer of an elementary school with 1100 students. I spend ~ 4 hours a week on counting money, making copies for documentation, and generating reimbursements. It is a lot of time. We also receive ~ $120k per year in income, so there is a lot of money going through the PTO.
