Telephone In Cost Accounting: A Novel And Successful Method In Actual Use; Telephone In Factory Cost Accounting, Nelson W. Jarvis

Individual and Corporate Publications

In every manufacturing plant large enough to employ several hundred persons, as well as in smaller shops where the men are scattered over several floors, one of the greatest problems in connection with a cost system is to secure accurate records of the time each man spends on his jobs without requiring him to walk to and from a time clock to have his cards stamped. This is especially true in shops where men work on a number of small jobs during the day and the floor space covers a considerable area. One solution of this problem would be to …

New Idea In Time Recording And Its Advantages In Cost Accounting, Robert W. Higgins

Individual and Corporate Publications

The past decade has witnessed important advances in many lines but possibly none has shown more rapid evolution than the science of Cost Accounting. Proprietors and managers have long wanted exact knowledge of the cost of their output and realized the advantage of such information, but even to-day a large majority will admit that they do not know their costs. Many self-styled expert cost accountants have played on this condition of affairs, reaped a harvest for themselves and their employers, and left their clients in a worse state of confusion, than they were before, on the subject of cost, therefore, …

Gilbreth Field System, John P. Slack

Individual and Corporate Publications

Organization in the contracting field presents two phases which often seem to greatly diverge. One, the possibilities in theory, and the other, the possibilities in practice. It is in the application of theory, in its reduction to an ultimate working basis, that proof lies. The proof of the pudding lies in the eating no less truly than the proof of theory in the result of its application. The factor which varies, and which often brings apparently logical theories to an unfortunate conclusion, is the difference between working conditions which obtain in actuality, and ideal conditions which unfortunately exist only in …

Discussion In Reference To Maintenance And Depreciation Charges In Accounts Of Public Service Corporations Before The Incorporated Public Accountants Of Massachusetts, After Dinner At The Boston Athletic Club, April 11, 1907, Harvey S. Chase, Incorporated Public Accountants Of Massachusetts

Publications of Accounting Associations, Societies, and Institutes

A realizing sense of the fundamental importance of establishing practical standards for depreciation charges in all classes of industries, particularly in public service corporations and in municipal industries, is now becoming evident. Auditors, comptrollers and managers of these enterprises are anxiously seeking for light upon such subjects and all men who make studies of municipal affairs become convinced of the necessity for uniform and standard methods for handling depreciation questions which should be identical in and mandatory upon both public service companies and municipal enterprises.
