Development Of Managerial Accounting In Germany: A Historical Analysis, Adolf Gerhard Coenenberg, Hanns Martin Schoenfeld Jan 1990

Development Of Managerial Accounting In Germany: A Historical Analysis, Adolf Gerhard Coenenberg, Hanns Martin Schoenfeld

Accounting Historians Journal

During the second half of the nineteenth century, managerial accounting development in Germany was based on micro-economic theory. In the twentieth century, the emphasis shifted to techniques and later to determination of true cost, resulting in a highly developed system that had a major impact on other European countries. The major difference between the German developments and those in the USA is the separation of cost (consumption/utilization of physical resources) from expenses. After WWII, interest centered on cost theory based on limitational rather than substitutional production functions. Gutenberg demonstrated various cost adaptation patterns as managements responded to output changes and …

Development Of The Judicial Definition Of Materiality, Luann Bean, Deborah W. Thomas Jan 1990

Development Of The Judicial Definition Of Materiality, Luann Bean, Deborah W. Thomas

Accounting Historians Journal

Determining what should be considered a material item has been a problem for both the accounting profession and the courts. By reviewing the court cases involving the issue of materiality, the authors have determined where differences in the materiality standard as applied by the courts exist. The judicial definition of materiality has developed over time, and current trends with important variations are observed. Based upon the authors' analysis, the following judicial definition of materiality, with its possible variations, is suggested: Would the reasonable (or speculative) investor (or layman) consider important (or be influenced by) this information in determining his course …

What Is Publishable; Accounting History Research: An Editorial View, Dale L. Flesher, William D. Samson

Accounting Historians Journal

Although this is the first issue of The Accounting Historians Journal that has been published by the new editorial team, the current editors and reviewers have been processing manuscripts for nearly a year. During that time, 40 manuscripts have been received and, so far, only six have been accepted for publication. The majority have failed to meet the expectations of reviewers because of a lack of significance of subject matter or weaknesses in research methodology. For these reasons, this essay is designed to give potential authors some guidance in what and how to research.

Origins And Developments Of French Costing Systems (As Reflected In Published Literature), H. Peter Holzer, Wade Rogers Jan 1990

Origins And Developments Of French Costing Systems (As Reflected In Published Literature), H. Peter Holzer, Wade Rogers

Accounting Historians Journal

This paper reviews the evolution of French cost accounting from the mid-1500's to the present. As might be expected, the development of costing techniques accelerated in the late nineteenth century. Modern French cost accounting probably began with Maurice Lucas' book, Le Prix de Revient, and the publications of a special government commission in 1928. The commission recommended detailed costing procedures which are relevant today and are reflected in the requirements of the latest French uniform chart of accounts. The chart provides for the incorporation of imputed costs through a system of contra accounts. Today's cost and management accounting concepts and …

Charles Lamb: A Man Of Letters And A Clerk In The Accountants Department Of The East India Company, Vahe Baladouni

Accounting Historians Journal

Charles Lamb (1775-1834), English author, who became famous for his informal, personal essays and literary criticism, is presented here in his vocational role as accounting clerk. Lambs long years of experience in and out of Londons counting-houses permitted him to capture the early nineteenth-century business and accounting life in some of his renowned essays and letters to friends. His unique wit, humor, and warm humanity bring to life one of the most interesting periods in accounting history.

Natural Business Year: A Shift From Proactive To Reactive Behavior By Accountants, Richard G.J. Vangermeersch, Mark Higgins Jan 1990

Natural Business Year: A Shift From Proactive To Reactive Behavior By Accountants, Richard G.J. Vangermeersch, Mark Higgins

Accounting Historians Journal

There has been a noticeable decline in accounting publications and research on the natural business year since the early 1960's, the same time that the AICPA Committee on Natural Business Year ended. Accountants and accounting institutional bodies up to that date had taken a strongly proactive stance on the topic. Since then, and especially since 1970, almost all of the literature on the natural business year has been reactive to IRS pronouncements. This article traces these changes from proactive to reactive behavior, and from financial/managerial accounting considerations to taxation issues. The article ends with support for accountants to be proactive …
