Source Of Accounting History: Somerset Maugham, Peter G. Boys Oct 1994

Source Of Accounting History: Somerset Maugham, Peter G. Boys

Accounting Historians Notebook

General literature may be considered by some to be an unusual source of accounting history. Although it may provide little on the technical development of the subject, it may permit some insight into the social evolution of accountancy as a profession and the changing image of accountants and their work. This article concentrates on the work of Somerset Maugham, who published a number of plays, novels, travelogues, essays and short stories, together with several reminiscences. Many of Maugham's novels and short stories were drawn, with some literary license, from his own experience.

Women In Accountancy: A Reminder Of A Century Past, Elliott L. Slocum

Accounting Historians Notebook

During the past twenty-five years, the profession of accountancy in the United States has experienced a dramatic increase of women entering the practice of accounting, particularly public accounting. Although women have historically worked in business record-keeping, their movement into the mainstream of accounting has until recently been slow and difficult. The following brief comments are to remind us of the difficulties women faced in obtaining an accounting education and entering private, governmental, and public accounting during this century.

Accounting In The Thirteenth Century Manuscripts On Estate Management, Robert M. Kozub Apr 1994

Accounting In The Thirteenth Century Manuscripts On Estate Management, Robert M. Kozub

Accounting Historians Notebook

References to the accounting system used for manors are contained in three early manuscripts on estate management. These early manuscripts dealt with husbandry, that is, the wise use of resources, and were addressed to the lords of the estate. Each manuscript provided practical hints intended to aid individuals in the management of their business affairs. Although the institutions and practices referred to in these manuscripts have long since passed away, these treatises provide a fairly complete picture of the life in a thirteenth century manor. The authors dealt: simply with the matters of ordinary experience and did not attempt to …

Accounting History And Governmental Inquiries: An Experiment In Adversarial Roleplay, R. J. Craig, A. J. Greinke Jan 1994

Accounting History And Governmental Inquiries: An Experiment In Adversarial Roleplay, R. J. Craig, A. J. Greinke

Accounting Historians Journal

Governmental inquiries where accounting is a central focus are a rich resource for injecting much needed historical content into accounting courses in higher education. An adversarial roleplay recreated a Wage Stabilization Board hearing in Washington, D.C. which, in 1952, led to President Truman's seizure of the American steel industry and ultimately to a constitutional crisis. The roleplay centered on the accounting issues debated by that Board in response to a highly provocative submission by W. A. Paton on behalf of the steel industry. The roleplay revealed strong support for recourse to such historical materials in providing an enjoyable, stimulating and …
