Farm Bookkeeping, E. H. Thomson, United States. Department Of Agriculture
Farm Bookkeeping, E. H. Thomson, United States. Department Of Agriculture
Federal Publications
Adequate records are necessary to the efficient management of any business. The farmer, to be successful, must be a business man as well as a grower of crops and producer of livestock. As a business man he should have suitable business records. Farmers, as a rule, are highly individualistic in their methods, and farm business conditions vary widely. Accordingly, ready-made systems of farm accounts seldom bring out all the facts that the farmer ought to know. Systems must be developed to fit each man's requirements, and efforts to shape one's needs according to a prepared system not based primarily on …

Classification Of Ledger Accounts For Creameries, George O. Knapp
Federal Publications
In presenting this Classification of Ledger Accounts for Creameries it is the aim of the Bureau of Markets to emphasize the importance of the use of a definite and logical classification of accounts for keeping the financial records of any business and to describe in detail a classification which can be used advantageously by creameries. The use of such a classification is not only a great aid to the bookkeeper in the performance of routine duties, but its consistent use also insures a uniform method of presenting the financial information from year to year regardless of changes in the personnel. …

Farm Household Accounts, W. C. Funk, United States. Department Of Agriculture
Farm Household Accounts, W. C. Funk, United States. Department Of Agriculture
Federal Publications
Household expenses on the farm are very intimately associated with the business of the farm itself. The farm normally supplies much material which otherwise would become a household expense. The household, in turn, very often furnishes board for farm labor, which would otherwise be a farm expense. Merely from the standpoint of keeping track of household expenses as related to the farm business, household accounts are desirable and should serve to supplement and round out farm accounts.

System Of Accounting For Fruit Shipping Organizations, G. A. Nahstoll, John R. Humphrey, United States. Department Of Agriculture
Federal Publications
A study of the accounting systems in use in fruit shipping organizations in the West and Pacific Northwest has disclosed a wide variation in methods and forms, for the detail of the accounting procedure has been allowed to be affected greatly by the varying plans of organization, kind of products handled, and local conditions generally. In standardizing accounting forms and procedure, it was deemed advisable to confine all efforts to devising a system for use in local or assembling associations which market their output through a selling agent and which may or may not operate community packinghouses. Minor modifications of …

Federal Publications
The warehouse receives cotton for the account of another party, provides the owner with a proper place for conserving his product, and gives its receipt as evidence that the cotton has been stored. Upon the integrity and financial standing of the warehouse which issues this receipt depends the value of the receipt, and it should be the desire and aim of every warehouseman to give his receipt its utmost value. The efficiency of a cotton warehouse depends in a very large degree upon its methods of keeping accounts and records of its transactions. The general use of a simple, concise …

Federal Publications
These recommendations are intended to suggest to contracting officers some of the broad legal and equitable points involved in war contracts, and to express the preference of the conference for a straight purchase-and-sale contract at a fixed price, since it is simpler in terms, easier to work under, and generally speaking, productive of better and quicker results. The British Government, after several years' experience, has discarded the cost-plus contract plan and adopted the straight purchase-and-sale contract in every instance possible. It is not proposed to go into the large question of policy involved in attempting to prevent demoralization of markets …

Accounting Records For Country Creameries, John R. Humphrey, G. A. Nahstoll, United States. Department Of Agriculture
Federal Publications
Owing to the lack of specific information in regard to accounting in farmers' creameries, it has been necessary in the past for each secretary, using whatever knowledge of commercial accounting he possessed, to devise a system which in his opinion would best suit the specific requirements of the business, the essential forms being selected from the many which have been placed upon the market by publishing houses catering to the creamery trade. No uniform system was available which could be applied to the needs of practically all country creameries; hence, systems of accounting are practically as numerous as creameries. A …

Cost Accounting For Oil Producers, Clarence Grover Smith, United States. Bureau Of Mines
Federal Publications
Prior to the actual development of an oil property it is difficult to determine the quantity of oil under the property and the rate at which this oil can be brought to the surface factors that determine the ultimate value of the property. Consequently, there has been much confusion in devising accounting systems that, during the entire life of a property, will show costs and profits from which the producer can determine whether his property is being worked at a profit or otherwise. The Bureau of Mines publishes this report in recognition of a distinct need for a simple treatise …

System Of Accounts For Retail Merchants, United States. Federal Trade Commission, Robert E. Belt, R. W. Gardiner

The Federal Trade Commission has found that the majority of retail merchants do not know accurately the cost of conducting their "business and for this reason they are unable to price their goods intelligently. There must he decided improvement in this direction before competition can be placed upon a sound basis and before we can expect a decrease in the heavy business death rate among retail merchants. With the object of aiding retail merchants to improve their accounting methods we have outlined a simple system of accounts which provides for supplying the information necessary to properly direct a retail business. …
