According To Hoyle, United States Playing Card Company, Alfred Robert Roberts

Accounting Historians Notebook

Some four decades before the American Revolution, there existed in London a number of coffee houses in which the gentry and merchant classes gathered to sip chocolate and coffee, to talk, and to play Whist, the increasingly popular card game destined to be the forerunner of Auction and Contract Bridge and other trump games of the partnership family. One of the habitues of the Crown Coffee House on Bedford Row was Edmond Hoyle, a middle-aged lawyer. Hoyle became so proficient at Whist that he decided to teach it and forego the practice of law.

In Defense Of The Old Way Of Teaching Elementary Accounting, Richard G.J. Vangermeersch Oct 1993

In Defense Of The Old Way Of Teaching Elementary Accounting, Richard G.J. Vangermeersch

Accounting Historians Notebook

After a significant number of years away from teaching elementary accounting, I returned to this interesting phenomena. The devastating rebuke to the old way of teaching the basic courses by the Accounting Education Change Commission led me to rethink the old ways. This rebuke arrived with the 150 credit hour issue, a significant drop in the quantity of business majors, and a very noticeable decay in students' ability to focus arising from the noise generated by MTV, VCRs, and Walkmen. After this rethinking, I not only have returned to my old ways of teaching by the building block approach, but …

Accounting Procedures And Techniques In The Late Eighteen Hundreds, John S. Ribezzo

Accounting Historians Notebook

Upon browsing through a stack of books at a used book sale, I came upon the New Bryant & Stratton Counting-House Book-Keeping, copyright 1878.

It was a revision of Bryant and Stratton's Counting-House Book-Keeping, first published in 1863. The curriculum of the college was designed to educate students in the field of Office Practices. Science of Accounts was the title of the core …

Scrip: The Alternative Unit-Of-Measure In Company Towns, Roxanne Therese Johnson Mar 1993

Scrip: The Alternative Unit-Of-Measure In Company Towns, Roxanne Therese Johnson

Accounting Historians Notebook

In the latter half of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century, company stores essentially used an alternative unit-of-measure called scrip. Scrip was issued by the company as payment to the employees and was recognized within a particular geographic community as tender, a practice introduced, fostered, controlled, and often mandated by the company. Its purpose seems to have been to keep the individual tied to the company store. Scrip could take many forms, but it was always issued in lieu of cash.
