Significance Of Ancient Mesopotamia In Accounting History, Douglas Garbutt
Significance Of Ancient Mesopotamia In Accounting History, Douglas Garbutt
Accounting Historians Journal
The article draws attention to the vast archive of accounting records from ancient Mesopotamia available to historians, and the advances in Assyriology which have taken place since the revival of interest in the origins of recorded history. Understanding of the materials has been advanced, in part, by specialists from other fields, such as mathematics and astronomy, yet accounting historians do not seem to have been attracted to the problems of interpreting the elegantly simple records and the societal context within which they were made and used. To exemplify the challenges facing the accounting historian, the author considers evidence on the …
Behavioural Impact Of Budgets: Early Accounting Contributions, Lee D. Parker
Behavioural Impact Of Budgets: Early Accounting Contributions, Lee D. Parker
Accounting Historians Journal
Accounting writers have invariably referred to the accounting literature of the 1960s and 1970s as the earliest source of discussion about the impact of budgets upon manager behaviour. This short paper identifies a number of accounting writers of earlier decades, whose contribution to this subject has to date been overlooked.

Comment On Some Remarks By Historians Of Cost Accounting On Engineering Contributions To The Subject, Richard G.J. Vangermeersch
Comment On Some Remarks By Historians Of Cost Accounting On Engineering Contributions To The Subject, Richard G.J. Vangermeersch
Accounting Historians Journal
M. C. Wells wrote in Accounting for Common Costs that engineering impacts on cost accounting had ended by 1910. This paper reports the results of a review of the Accountants' Index from 1920 through 1949 for engineering sources listed under the general category of the two sections of "Cost and Factory Accounting" and "Depreciation, Depletion, and Obsolescence." The results show that engineering sources on these topics peaked late during the decade that began in 1910 and did not become insignificant until the 1930s.

Taylor's Contribution To Cost Accounting, A Reply, Rosita S. Chen, Sheng-Der Pan
Accounting Historians Journal
We respond to those issues that M. C. Wells raised in his comments on our article. We found that his comments on the association of scientific management and cost accounting, and on Taylor's historical role in cost accounting were debatable, and his discussion of the first modern book on cost accounting was inconclusive.

Early Canadian Financial Statement Disclosure Legislation, George J. Murphy
Early Canadian Financial Statement Disclosure Legislation, George J. Murphy
Accounting Historians Journal
The Ontario Companies Act of 1907 was one of the earliest legislative enactments to require presentation at company annual meetings, and specify the content of, the financial statements of commercial and manufacturing companies. The study describes the background to this important event and points to the two main influencing forces: the office of the Provincial Secretary and the equally active and informed Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario. The concern for disclosure suggests that Ontario was in the forefront of accounting development in the latter part of the nineteenth and the first decade of the twentieth centuries.
Etymological Observations On Some Accounting Terms, Vahe Baladouni
Etymological Observations On Some Accounting Terms, Vahe Baladouni
Accounting Historians Journal
Selected on the basis of their etymological appeal to the author, eighteen accounting terms are traced to their earliest ascertainable form and meaning in the family of languages to which they belong. Such an investigation not only reveals something of our past, but also helps energize the conceptual landscape of our vocabulary.

In Memoriam: Alexander Hamilton Church's System Of Scientific Machine Rates At Hans Renold, Ltd., C.1901-C.1920, Trevor Boyns
In Memoriam: Alexander Hamilton Church's System Of Scientific Machine Rates At Hans Renold, Ltd., C.1901-C.1920, Trevor Boyns
Accounting Historians Journal
In 1901, Alexander Hamilton Church wrote a path-breaking article in The Engineering Magazine, entitled The proper distribution of establishment charges'. This article, published in six parts, is generally considered to have been one of the most important articles on the subject of overhead allocation and Church's system of scientific machine rates is often seen as a precursor of work which eventually resulted in the emergence of standard costing. Around the same time, Church introduced his system at Renold, a firm of British chain manufacturers, where it was used well into the First World War. Towards the end of the war, …

Pound Foolish Penny Wise System: The Role Of Accounting In The Improvement Of The River Tyne, 1800-1850, Susie Brackenborough
Accounting Historians Journal
The relationship between accounting and governmentality, and the increasing statutory regulation of companies by central government during the 19th century have attracted a great deal of attention from accounting historians. Conversely, accounting change within local authorities in this period has attracted far less attention. The paper examines the consequences of the increase in public accountability of local authorities in England and Wales in the context of the Newcastle Corporation, the body responsible for collecting and distributing the town's wealth. During the first half of the 19th century Newcastle Corporation was heavily criticized for neglecting the improvement of the River Tyne. …
Internal Controls In The Talmud: The Jersusalem Temple, Robert Fonfeder, Mark P. Holtzman, Eugene Maccarrone
Internal Controls In The Talmud: The Jersusalem Temple, Robert Fonfeder, Mark P. Holtzman, Eugene Maccarrone
Accounting Historians Journal
We examine the Hebrew Talmud's account of internal controls in the ancient Jerusalem Temple (c.823 B.C.E. to 70 C.E.) This far-reaching enterprise involved an extensive system of sacrificial offerings, management of three annual pilgrimages, a court system and maintenance of a priestly class. We outline the annual process of collecting half-shekel and other donations, withdrawals from the Temple treasury and the sale of libations. The Talmud describes numerous internal controls: donations were segregated according to their specific purposes and donation chests were shaped with small openings to prevent theft. When making withdrawals from the Temple treasury, the priest-treasurer was required …
Corporatism, Liberalism And The Accounting Profession In Portugal Since 1755, Lucia Lima Rodrigues, Delfina Gomes, Russell Craig
Corporatism, Liberalism And The Accounting Profession In Portugal Since 1755, Lucia Lima Rodrigues, Delfina Gomes, Russell Craig
Accounting Historians Journal
This paper introduces some significant developments in the history of the Portuguese accounting profession. It does so with a view to providing a facilitative foundation of knowledge upon which further analysis and critique can be undertaken. Five developmental periods since 1755 are identified: (i) Corporatist Absolute Monarchy (1755-1820) (ii) Liberal Monarchy (1820-1890) (iii) Waning Liberalism and Rising Corporatism (1891-1926) (iv) Corporatist Dictatorship (1926-1974) and (v) Emerging Liberal Democracy and NeoÂÂcorporatism (1974 until the present). The accounting profession's chequered history is analysed through episodes of regulation and de-regulation. These episodes are associated with Portugal's pervading social, economic and political context and …
Becoming Professional: Chinese Accountants In Early 20th Century Shanghai, Yin Xu, Xiaoqun Xu
Becoming Professional: Chinese Accountants In Early 20th Century Shanghai, Yin Xu, Xiaoqun Xu
Accounting Historians Journal
This paper examines the experience of Chinese accountants transforming themselves into a profession during the early 20th century. It delineates how the experience was shaped by an intersection of economic development, the political culture and the nationalist movement in semi-colonial Shanghai. Chinese accountants responded to the daily manifestations of these larger historical forces by combining their professional self-interests with a nationalist agenda and by adapting to the changing political environment. The history and legacy of this experience provides a point of reference for observing the re-emergence of the accounting profession in China since the end of the Maoist era.

This is a review of how various experiences in my career have contributed to my understanding of accounting. I recall the circumstances surrounding several of my efforts towards the development of accounting theories, viz. (1) decision-usefulness theory, (2) activity costing, and (3) market simulation accounting, as well as my excursion into (4) market association research in seeking to validate decision-usefulness theory and (5) a search for the effects of firms' economic environments on the development of enterprise accounting in the 2nd millennium, C.E. I give my impressions of several of the important players in the evolution of accounting thought in …

Planning And Control In The 19th Century Ice Trade, Linda H. Kistler, Clairmont P. Carter, Brackston Hinchey
Planning And Control In The 19th Century Ice Trade, Linda H. Kistler, Clairmont P. Carter, Brackston Hinchey
Accounting Historians Journal
This paper describes selected accounting records of the Tudor Ice Company which were devised to manage and control the far-flung business activities of Frederic Tudor, a 19th century entrepreneur who has been called America's first monopolist. Tudor's business genius lay in developing methods of harvesting, transporting, storing, and marketing commercial quantities of ice taken from New England ponds and shipped to tropical ports around the world. Frederic Tudor employed relatively sophisticated accounting techniques to analyze and control transportation costs and the costs of product shrinkage. He also routinely analyzed and translated foreign currency transactions for his geographically dispersed operations and …
