Accountant In The Bolivian Jungle, John Freear Jan 1986

Accountant In The Bolivian Jungle, John Freear

Accounting Historians Journal

In January, 1900, Henry I'Anson applied, successfully, for the position of accountant at a rubber plantation in Bolivia. He and his wife journeyed there by steamship, steam launch, and canoe, to find a less than hospitable welcome. I'Anson's professionalism was offended by the condition of the plantation's accounts, and he was disconcerted by the prices he was charged for food. He complained, was insulted, threatened, and, finally, he and his wife were obliged to return to England. There, he found that he had been dismissed. This article is based wholly on his undated statement made in connection with a lawsuit …

Financial Reporting In The Early Years Of The East India Company, Vahe Baladouni Jan 1986

Financial Reporting In The Early Years Of The East India Company, Vahe Baladouni

Accounting Historians Journal

The first archival period (1600-1663) of the (English) East India Company is marked by an absence of accounting materials. A small number of financial statements have escaped peril, however, and found their way to the India Office Library and Records in London. Of these, two are of singular interest. Along with related Company minutes, these statements are analyzed and interpreted in this paper. They shed some light on the reporting practices and concepts of the early years of the incorporated joint-stock company.

Chronology Of The Development Of Corporate Financial Reporting In Canada: 1850 To 1983, George J. Murphy

Accounting Historians Journal

A chronology of significant events in the development of corporate financial reporting standards and practices is presented. The introductory comments to the various sections direct attention to some of the main patterns and trends in that development and provide the framework in which the listing of events is to be interpreted. The particularly significant domestic sources of influence are the legislative and professional activities in Ontario and, in more recent times, the activities of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. External influences have been not unexpectedly the traditions of English Company law and the close professional, institutional and economic relationships …

Accounting For Gold And Sliver Mines: The Development Of Cost Accounting, Glenn Vent Jan 1986

Accounting For Gold And Sliver Mines: The Development Of Cost Accounting, Glenn Vent

Accounting Historians Journal

This study found evidence which supports the thesis that cost accounting techniques evolved rapidly during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. The cost accounting system employed by the leading mines of the Comstock Lode during the 1870's is compared to a system used in the Cripple Creek district of Colorado during the first decade of the twentieth century. The cost accounting techniques of the mining industry appear to have developed rapidly during this period from crude to sophisticated systems.


Many Faces Of Luca Pacioli: Iconographic Research Over Thirty Years, Ernest Stevelinck Jan 1986

Many Faces Of Luca Pacioli: Iconographic Research Over Thirty Years, Ernest Stevelinck

Accounting Historians Journal

This article, first delivered as a paper at the 1980 World Congress of Accounting Historians in London,1 presents the results of three decades of the author's research in pursuit of a true image of Luca Pacioli. Portraits, sculptures, and sketches are traced to painters and artists of several periods. The mystery relating to Pacioli's likeness is considered. Stevelinck suggests that the search for a true portrait continues, given the disputes over the authenticity of various paintings and their faithfulness in representing the appearance of Pacioli. The research also provides important information about the career of Pacioli by considering the relationships …

Monetary System, Taxation, And Publicans In The Time Of Christ, Alan D. Campbell Jan 1986

Monetary System, Taxation, And Publicans In The Time Of Christ, Alan D. Campbell

Accounting Historians Journal

The Jews used bars and rings of gold and silver as money prior to using coins. Syrian, Roman, and Jewish coins were used during the time of Christ. The Roman Government imposed a tremendous tax burden upon its subjects. The people of Israel also had to pay a tax to the temple. Publicans, or tax collectors, were well known for their corruption. Thus, the Jews had utter contempt for publicans. Christ paid his share of taxes and taught that it was right to do so even under the corrupt system of the Romans.
