Philosophy Of Accounting Historical Research, Ernest Stevelinck
Philosophy Of Accounting Historical Research, Ernest Stevelinck
Accounting Historians Notebook
The generalized study of accounting history is of recent origin. We have hardly made a beginning in interpreting the history of accounting and it is time that a broader synthesis be attempted. Many accounting professionals, preoccupied with fiscal and judicial questions, still consider accounting history as unimportant, helpful only to occupy the leisure time of professors and retired businessmen. It is necessary to convince these critics that they are wrong and that a philosophical approach to accounting history is not only possible but desirable. The philosophy of accounting history is, in fact, the logical extension of accounting history.

Accounting History Hobbies; My Old Books, Perry Beckerman
Accounting Historians Notebook
I began my collection of old accounting books in 1978 when my wife took me into a small antique store in New Hope, Pennsylvania. While she was looking at furniture I browsed through some old books and came across a copy of A Practical System of Bookkeeping by Ira Mayhew, published in 1855. I was intrigued by this small volume and purchased it. This led to my starting a collection of accounting and bookkeeping books published prior to 1900.

Functional fixation is a behavioral decision hypothesis, reflecting a rigid notion of something: such as attaching economic substance to accounting figures that are really irrelevant in decision making.

Accounting Historians Notebook
Jimmy Jones is the proud owner of the four-volume set of Proceedings from the 1938 International Congress of Accountants held in Berlin.

Accounting History Hobbies; Pete Mcmickle's Rare Book Collection, Dale L. Flesher
Accounting Historians Notebook
Dr. Peter McMickle is a professor of accounting at Memphis State University, but his major claim to fame is his avocation rather than his vocation. Pete McMickle is best known for having accumulated what is; probably the world's finest collection of rare and historic accounting books. His collection of rare books now exceeds 800 volumes. Many members of the Academy have observed portions of Pete's collection as he has manned the Academy's booth at the American Accounting Association meetings in recent years and brought along several of his rare volumes.

Henry Sweeney And Stabilized Accounting, Walker Eugene Fesmire
Henry Sweeney And Stabilized Accounting, Walker Eugene Fesmire
Accounting Historians Notebook
Since the mid-1960's, inflation has been exacting a heavy toll from American business and the American Public. During this period, the Accounting profession has studied the problem of price-level changes and has issued many pronouncements upon the subject. Thus, the public assumes that the theory of handling price-level changes is a recent development. This is an incorrect view as accounting theorists were concerned with and were writing about the problem as far back as 1920. One of these early individuals, who considered price-level accounting in depth, was Henry Sweeney. This article will present a brief biographical sketch of Sweeney encompassing …

Profile: Warren W. Nissley; Warren W. Nissley, Elliott L. Slocum, Alfred Robert Roberts
Accounting Historians Notebook
Accountancy owes much to those dedicated persons who, during the formative years, perceived it to be a dynamic profession rather than a technical skill. This paper recalls one such person, Warren W. Nissley. Born in Middletown, Pennsylvania in 1893, his career in accounting spanned approximately thirty years. At his untimely death on January 17, 1950, Nissley was within reach of the pinnacle of success at Arthur Young 8c Company. His influence on accountancy had been considerable and had he lived, it would undoubtedly have been even greater.

Accounting Historians Notebook
Herbert C. Hoover, along with an older brother and younger sister became orphaned and thereafter raised in the homes of relatives. From Hoover's memoirs we find that relatives were glad to take in the children, but that an acquaintance was named legal guardian in order to avoid any implication of manipulation of the estate. The estate, by no means large even in those days, was made up of proceeds from insurance and from the sale of the implement business and their home. It is the accounting for Herbert Hoover's share of that estate that is of interest because here we …
