Exploring The Contents Of The Baltimore And Ohio Railroad Annual Reports: 1827-1856, Gary John Previts, William D. Samson Jan 2000

Exploring The Contents Of The Baltimore And Ohio Railroad Annual Reports: 1827-1856, Gary John Previts, William D. Samson

Accounting Historians Journal

In 1995, a nearly complete collection of the annual reports of the earliest interstate and common carrier railroad in the U. S., the Baltimore and Ohio (B&O), was rediscovered in the archival collection at the Bruno Library of the University of Alabama. Dating from the company's inception in l827 to its acquisition by the Chessie System in 1962, the reports present a unique opportunity for the exploration, study, and analysis of early U.S. corporate disclo­sure practice. This paper represents a study of the annual report information made publicly available by one of America's first rail­roads, and one of the first …


Dawning Of The Age Of Quantitative/Empirical Methods In Accounting Research: Evidence From The Leading Authors Of The Accounting Review, 1966-1985, Robert James Fleming, Joel E. Thompson Jan 2000

Dawning Of The Age Of Quantitative/Empirical Methods In Accounting Research: Evidence From The Leading Authors Of The Accounting Review, 1966-1985, Robert James Fleming, Joel E. Thompson

Accounting Historians Journal

This study documents changes that took place in The Ac­counting Review during 1966-1985 compared with earlier 20-year periods, 1926-1945 and 1946-1965. The comparisons are based on examining the articles published in The Accounting Review and writ­ten by its leading authors (i.e., those authors who published the most articles). The article considers topics, research methods, finan­cial accounting subtopics, citation analyses (including influential journals, articles, books, and authors), length, author background, and other items. This study shows that The Accounting Review evolved into a journal with demanding acceptance standards whose leading authors were highly educated accounting academics who, to a large degree, …


Knowing More As Knowing Less? Alternative Histories Of Cost And Management Accounting In The U.S. And The U.K., Keith W. Hoskin, Richard Macve Jan 2000

Knowing More As Knowing Less? Alternative Histories Of Cost And Management Accounting In The U.S. And The U.K., Keith W. Hoskin, Richard Macve

Accounting Historians Journal

In attempting to understand the genesis and scope of mod­ern cost and management accounting systems, accounting histori­ans adopting what has been labeled a Foucauldian approach have been rewriting the history of key 18th and 19th century develop­ments in the U.K. and U.S. through new evidence, new interpreta­tion, and a refocusing of attention on familiar events. This is a disciplinary history which sees modern cost and management ac­counting as articulating a new kind of expert disciplinary knowl­edge, as well as exercising a disciplinary power, in the construc­tion of a new human accountability. However, this disciplinary view has been challenged by more …

Accounting History And The Emperor's New Clothes: A Response To Knowing More As Knowing Less?..., Thomas N. Tyson Jan 2000

Accounting History And The Emperor's New Clothes: A Response To Knowing More As Knowing Less?..., Thomas N. Tyson

Accounting Historians Journal

Hoskin and Macve (H&M) continue to accredit certain events in the early 1840s as enabling the creation of norm-based accounting and its use to control labor and improve productivity at the Springfield Armory (SA). Although critics have refuted H&M's interpretation of these events and reproached their use of inflated language, H&M maintain their unique perspective with undiminished fervor. This rejoinder further questions the validity of H&M's perspective of U.S. accounting history. It identifies the many conventional business historians who refute it and emphasizes that no other evidence has been presented to indicate that norm-based accounting was ever employed in the …

Building The Canadian Chartered Accountancy Profession: A Biography Of George Edwards, Fca, Cbe, Lld, 1861-1947, Alan John Richardson Jan 2000

Building The Canadian Chartered Accountancy Profession: A Biography Of George Edwards, Fca, Cbe, Lld, 1861-1947, Alan John Richardson

Accounting Historians Journal

George Edwards was a key figure in the creation of the modern institutional structure of accounting in Canada. He worked to implement a vision of accountancy as a profession rather than a business. This was reflected in his commitment to accounting education, to the restriction of entry to the CA profession to those who passed a test of competency, and to his desire to demonstrate the social and ethical value of accounting. He was president of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario, president of the Dominion Association of CAs, and president of the Society of Cost Accountants of Canada. …


Biblical Basis Of Forty-Year Goodwill Amortization, Hugo Nurnberg Jan 2000

Biblical Basis Of Forty-Year Goodwill Amortization, Hugo Nurnberg

Accounting Historians Journal

Current U.S. GAAP mandates amortizing goodwill over no more than 40 years. Although many commentators suggest that 40 years is an arbitrary time span, there is a Biblical basis for 40-year amortization. The Bible refers to 40 years as the life of a generation. Since amortizing goodwill over no more than 40 years corresponds to amortizing it over no more than one generation of talented employees or customers, the process is not completely arbitrary.

This paper evaluates our current Accounting and Information Systems (AIS) curriculum, developed using a Model-Oriented, Tool-Enhanced (MOTE) framework, by comparing it to the recommendations of the International Federation of Accountants'' (IFAC) Guideline No. 11. The IFAC recommendations offer guidance on the information technology content in accounting curricula and are supported by the AICPA. The evaluation resulted in suggestions for improvements to our existing curriculum. An analysis of the guideline was also completed.


A Multi-Case Investigation Of Environmental Legitimation In Annual Reports, Arline Savage, A. J. Cataldo, Jeff Rowlands Jan 2000

A Multi-Case Investigation Of Environmental Legitimation In Annual Reports, Arline Savage, A. J. Cataldo, Jeff Rowlands

Accounting

In this chapter, a legitimacy theory framework for corporate environmental disclosure is empirically investigated, using a multi-case research design. Legitimation strategies in the 1991-1995 annual reports of two Canadian-owned pulp and paper companies are explored. The findings support legitimacy theory as an explanation for voluntary environmental disclosure in annual reports.

Anson O. Kittredge: Early Accounting Pioneer, George C. Reomeo, Larissa S. Kyj Jan 2000

Anson O. Kittredge: Early Accounting Pioneer, George C. Reomeo, Larissa S. Kyj

Accounting Historians Journal

Leafing through early accounting journals from the last two decades of the 19th century, accounting historians and enthusiasts piece together the history of accountancy in the U.S., yet pay little attention to the editors of these journals who at times almost single-handedly willed their existence, clearing the road for modern accounting journals. Anson O. Kittredge, who was probably the most outstanding and influential editor of the 19th century, was also an author, teacher, CPA examiner, innovator, practitioner, and organizer.

Publishing Patterns In Specialist Accounting History Journals In The English Language, 1996-1999, Garry D. Carnegie, Brad N. Potter

Accounting Historians Journal

While accounting researchers have explored international publishing patterns in the accounting literature generally, little is known about recent contributions to the specialist international accounting history journals. Specifically, this study surveys publishing patterns in the three specialist, internationally refereed, accounting history journals in the English language during the period 1996 to 1999. The survey covers 149 contributions in total and provides empirical evidence on the location of their authors, the subject country or region in each investigation, and the time span of each study. It also classifies the literature examined based on the literature classification framework provided by Carnegie and Napier …
