Asset Revaluation And Cost Basis: Capital Revaluation In Corporate Financial Reports, Shizuki Saito Jan 1983

Asset Revaluation And Cost Basis: Capital Revaluation In Corporate Financial Reports, Shizuki Saito

Accounting Historians Journal

The paper is a historical study of the asset revaluation movement and the subsequent establishment of the cost basis in the United States. A survey of the corporate report leads to a generalization that the asset revaluations were fundamentally the adjustments of equity capital triggered by corporate financial policies. The concept of quasi-reorganization then was developed to ensure that the capital revaluation was undertaken for the right reasons. This newly developed concept made the revaluation of equity and assets less useful from the standpoint of corporate financial management. Asset revaluation was thus replaced by the cost principle.

Consideration Of Omitted Procedures After The Report Date; Statement On Auditing Standards, 046, American Institute Of Certified Public Accountants. Auditing Standards Board

Statements on Auditing Standards

This Statement provides guidance on the considerations and procedures to be applied by an auditor who, subsequent to the date of his report on audited financial statements, concludes that one or more auditing procedures considered necessary at the time of the examination in the circumstances then existing were omitted from his examination of the financial statements, but there is no indication that those financial statements are not fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles or with another comprehensive basis of accounting. This circumstance should be distinguished from that described in SAS No. 1, section 561, which applies if …

Accountant-Historians Of The Incas, John A. Yeakel Jan 1983

Accountant-Historians Of The Incas, John A. Yeakel

Accounting Historians Journal

The quipu was the ingenious, knotted-string device utilized throughout the Incan empire for recording data within the decimal system. Although quipu experts have often been thought of as managerial or governmental accountants, the writings of the early chroniclers of Peru reveal that quipu specialists were more than accountants. Quipucamayocs were also the historians of the Incas.


Business Goodwill: Conceptual Clarification Via Accounting, Legal And Etymological Perspectives, John K. Courtis Jan 1983

Business Goodwill: Conceptual Clarification Via Accounting, Legal And Etymological Perspectives, John K. Courtis

Accounting Historians Journal

Abstract: Confusion as to the real nature of commercial goodwill is well-entrenched in the literature, as evidenced by accountants' attention to valuation formulae rather than the underlying assets. The paper traces conceptual clarification of business goodwill via early writers on accounting, legal opinion and etymology. These three perspectives, together with a chronology of 91 selective definitions, reveal the shift in thinking over the past century. Goodwill, from being thought of as a set of inducements which attract persistent patronage, has become submerged by methods of valuation based upon superior earning power concepts and by the accounting notion of a residuum.


Historical Perspective On The Auditor's Role: The Early Experience Of The American Railroads, James L. Boockholdt Jan 1983

Historical Perspective On The Auditor's Role: The Early Experience Of The American Railroads, James L. Boockholdt

Accounting Historians Journal

The paper explores the origins of the auditing profession in the United States. It is suggested that the development of the audit function in this country can be traced to reporting by internal and shareholder auditors in the American railroads during the middle of the nineteenth century. Evidence is presented that a recognition of the need for audit independence existed, and that the provision of advisory services and reports on internal control by American auditors have been an inherent part of the auditor's role from that time.
