Classical Model Of Control In The Accounting Literature, Lee D. Parker

Accounting Historians Journal

This paper outlines a classical management model of control based upon concepts identified in the writings of Frederick Taylor and Henry Fayol. The classical model's constituent concepts are found to be replicated in early accounting literature. The accounting model persisted right through the 1970s with only one conceptual change that reflected a concept discussed by Fayol. A number of factors which may have influenced the accounting model's replication of the classical management model are then considered. These include the linguistic derivation of the term "budget", historical approaches to budgeting by governments, the scientific and efficiency orientation of accountants in the …

Genealogy Of Today's Contributors To Accounting Research, Mark E. Haskins, David D. Williams

Accounting Historians Journal

This paper explores the "intellectual roots" of some of today's major contributors to accounting research. Specifically, twenty-four present-day contributors were identified through their publication records and editorial service. For each of these contributors, the dissertation chairman was identified and assumed to be the primary mentor; in turn, dissertation chairmen for these individuals were also identified. Several iterations of this process produced four generations of accounting genealogy. The intellectual roots depicted in this paper highlight noteworthy linkages with members of the Accounting Hall of Fame, recipients of the Outstanding Educators Award, and with education in the discipline of economics.

Accounting Control: An Historical Note, Michael J. Mepham

Accounting Historians Journal

Over the centuries, control has expanded from its origins as a specialized accounting technique to cover many forms of regulatory activity in any area and its emphasis has expanded from that of ex post accountability to include ex ante planning and budgeting. Although financial control continues as a vital feature of accounting systems, accountants now frequently go outside their own discipline when they describe the major features of control systems. The accounting origins of control lay buried in the pages of The Oxford English Dictionary.

Atrophic Rhinitis In Pigs, A R. Mercy

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

Severe atrophic rhinitis in pigs recurred recently in Australia after an apparent absence of some 20 years. The first of these recent cases occurred in a Westerm Australian herd in late 1984 and since then six other local herds have reported the disease. Severe atrophic rhinitis has also been seen recently in South Australia.

Atrophic rhinitis is a complex disease which causes degeneration of the nasal cavity, twisting of the snout and sometimes occasional bleeding from the nose.

It occurs only in pigs and severely affected animals may have a slower growth rate.

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

Playing JOHN C. BURNHAM's new parlor game, "Who Is Now Great?” unexpectedly forms a negative consensus: the great men and women, like the dinosaurs, seem to belong to an earlier time, not to our own. The author wonders why, and shares his thoughts on the past, present, and future of greatness. Professor of History at The Ohio State University, with a scholarly interest in the history of psychiatry and American medical and social history, Burnham' s most recent book is on the psychoanalyst and physician Jelliffe.

ROBERT M. KHOURY and JUDITH A. SPECTOR explore the …

Accounting Syllabus, Elliott L. Slocum

Accounting Historians Notebook

This paper traces the efforts of the AIA Committee on Education (committee) from 1919 to 1924 to establish the program of study to prepare students for the CPA examination. The committee's efforts resulted in a program of study which was in outline form and referred to as the accounting syllabus. Although its contribution is debatable, the accounting syllabus was a first step. It reported subject matter which CPA candidates needed to know, and, perhaps, it indirectly influenced future efforts. The accounting syllabus, at the very least, represents a constructive effort and is a part of the foundation of contemporary accounting …
