How To Use The Business Record System For Retailers, R. G. Fuller Jan 1921

How To Use The Business Record System For Retailers, R. G. Fuller

Individual and Corporate Publications

Everyone knows that in the conduct of a business it is necessary to keep track of certain things. This is the purpose of bookkeeping. The simplest way in which it can be done is the best. Big business has developed bookkeeping into a wonderful science. Nevertheless, for the ordinary business bookkeeping can be made an extremely simple and easily understood process. With that idea we have formulated the method described in the following pages: The Tarco Daily Business Record.


Salient Features Of An Ideal Accounting System For A Retail Bookstore, De Witt Carl Eggleston Jan 1921

Salient Features Of An Ideal Accounting System For A Retail Bookstore, De Witt Carl Eggleston

Individual and Corporate Publications

The amount of business done by a retail book store is generally sufficient to warrant the expenditure of the time required to keep the books by the double entry system as explained in all books on bookkeeping. This system furnishes a means of analyzing the business transactions not possessed by any other system. In order that the proprietor may know just where he stands financially at the end of each month he should prepare or have prepared for him a balance sheet. This statement shows the assets, liabilities and capital as at the close of business on the last day …


Department Store Accounts; Part Ii: Instruction Paper, Charles A. Sweetland Jan 1921

Department Store Accounts; Part Ii: Instruction Paper, Charles A. Sweetland

Individual and Corporate Publications

It will be seen that the accounting for a business as varied as a department store, where the necessity exists for arriving at the profit of each department separately, must be very comprehensive, and, in consideration of the vast amount of detail, it must be as simple and easy to handle as possible. Each department treated as a separate enterprise must be charged with its purchases, with the cost of its operation, its pro rata of expense for advertising, floor-walkers, managers, rent, light, heat, and other general expenses, and credited with its sales, cash, c. o. d., and charge. Thus …

First, our rule is that in fixing the maximum amounts to be included in operating expenses for maintenance under the guaranty of section 209 of the Transportation Act, 1920, we will, as far as practicable, under the accounting test established by the proviso of section 5 of the standard contract, fix such amounts as would have resulted during the guaranty period in the same amount, character and durability of physical reparation as was applied to the respective carrier properties, during an average six months of the test period, three years ending June 30, 1917, making due allowance for differences in …

Supplementing The Work Of Cost System Installation, Robert Atkins

Individual and Corporate Publications

WITH increased knowledge on the subject of cost finding, there can be no doubt that the work of devising and installing cost systems will measure up to higher standards. This condition will tend towards the more profitable and efficient conduct of business, and the more rapidly this knowledge is disseminated throughout the business world, the earlier its benefits will be obtained. Nowadays, converts to scientific methods of cost finding are not infrequently made of entire branches of industry and the advantages of a uniform cost system to all the manufacturers in a certain line of industry are at once apparent. …


You Can't Judge Your Business By The Past Three Years, Elijah Watt Sells Jan 1921

You Can't Judge Your Business By The Past Three Years, Elijah Watt Sells

Individual and Corporate Publications

At least seventy-five per cent of all concerns started, fail. I have verified this statement by calling on an authority in such matters. It is as nearly correct as is possible. Men who start out in business seem to know so little about it that it is a wonder even so large a proportion as twenty-five per cent succeeds. Among our clients are all kinds of companies, from very small concerns up to railways, cities, and even Governments. Big companies fail in almost the same proportion as smaller ones; but their affairs are so complicated that it is difficult to …

Certified Public Accountants As The Health Officers Of Industry Should Advertise Their Services, William Cushing Bamburgh

Professionals should not advertise individually, but they may do so collectively. Publicity campaigns descriptive of the position which the professional holds in the community and which the professional work of the doctor, lawyer, engineer, architect, health expert, certified public accountant holds in the condition of the community, should be carried on for the enlightenment of the people and for the assurance of the general mind of the community.
