Revolution In Financial Reporting Theory : A Kuhnian Interpretation, Tom Mouck Jan 1993

Revolution In Financial Reporting Theory : A Kuhnian Interpretation, Tom Mouck

Accounting Historians Journal

A Kuhnian perspective is used to explain the transition in financial reporting theory from an economic income perspective to an informational perspective (a transition that Beaver refers to as a revolution), and to examine the subsequent development of the latter. The demise of the economic income perspective (represented by the normative a priorists) is attributed to the lack of a paradigm which could serve to identify research problems and provide methodological guidance. The success of the informational paradigm, on the other hand, is attributed to the fact that it was, in essence, a sub-paradigm of the broader and well-established market …


Savings And Loan Debacle : The Culmination Of Three Decades Of Conflicting Regulation, Deregulation, And Re-Regulation, Geanie W. Margavio Jan 1993

Savings And Loan Debacle : The Culmination Of Three Decades Of Conflicting Regulation, Deregulation, And Re-Regulation, Geanie W. Margavio

Accounting Historians Journal

The role of the public accounting profession in the savings and loan debacle of the 1980s has recently been the subject of Congressional inquiry and extensive litigation by government agencies, and by angry stockholders and bondholders. These efforts suggest a broad misunderstanding by the public of the causes of the disaster. this paper illustrates that the difficulties which precipitated the crisis were a result of the historical development of the regulatory environment of the savings and loan industry. Examining this regulatory environment helps in understanding the current problems and crises of savings and loans as well as the situation in …

Evolution Of The Profit Concept: One Organization's Experience, Cheryl S. Mcwatters Jan 1993

Evolution Of The Profit Concept: One Organization's Experience, Cheryl S. Mcwatters

Accounting Historians Journal

The accounting innovation and change literature has emphasized the contingent relationship between the accounting system and a variety of environmental forces. This paper utilizes a longitudinal analysis to evaluate this contingent relationship within one nineteenth century organization, The Calvin Company. The results generally are consistent with most findings from the literature. In particular, the study examines the shift in the profit concept to a short-versus a long-term perspective. This has parallels with the emerging role of the corporate form of business organization and the entity, as opposed to, proprietary view of accounting.


Insider Trading And Accounting Reform: The Comstock Case, Glenn A. Vent, Cynthia Birk Jan 1993

Insider Trading And Accounting Reform: The Comstock Case, Glenn A. Vent, Cynthia Birk

Accounting Historians Journal

This paper examines the hypothesis that major episodes of insider trading and business fraud promote accounting reforms. Dur-ing the 1860s and 1870s, the markets for Comstock mining shares reeled from one scandal after another. Eventually these scandals emerged as a leading political issue in California. The frauds contributed significantly to the passage of accounting and financial reporting reforms in 1880. The Comstock episode has implications for modern day instances of insider trading.


Accounting For Distribution Costs In The Dennison Manufacturing Company During The 1920s And 1930s, Gloria Vollmers Jan 1993

Accounting For Distribution Costs In The Dennison Manufacturing Company During The 1920s And 1930s, Gloria Vollmers

Accounting Historians Journal

This paper suggests that Activity-Based Costing is not a new cost accounting technique but rather one that has been revived as a consequence of difficult economic times. The Dennison Manufacturing Company of Framingham, Massachusetts used accounting techniques throughout their organization that were clearly activity-based. This company's approach to costing distribution or marketing costs in particular is explored here. These costs tend to be ignored today; yet this company, along with others, made a concerted effort to understand these costs and to account for them.

Development Of Government Accounting: A Content Analysis Of The Journal Of Accountancy, 1905 To 1989, Gary John Previts, Richard E. Brown

Accounting Historians Journal

This content analysis of Journal of Accountancy items relating to governmental accounting spans a period of nine decades which included two world wars, a severe economic depression, and conflicts in Korea and Vietnam, These decades marked the departure from simpler local government accounting concerns alone to national governmental issues and the call for consistent accountability among the myriad federal agencies and programs. Considering the growth of the public sector, its importance to all other spheres of American life, the complexity of governmental financial administration, and the events of the times, governmental accounting received only a modest amount of attention in …


Data Processing Technology And Accounting: A Historical Perspective, Robert Kee Jan 1993

Data Processing Technology And Accounting: A Historical Perspective, Robert Kee

Accounting Historians Journal

Accounting has evolved over thousands of years from record keeping systems designed to document to systems designed to measure changes in economic activity. Similarly, the technology used to manage economic data has evolved from clay tokens and jars to punched card and computer systems. Throughout their development, changes in data processing technology and accounting frequently have been interrelated. Punched card and computer systems, in particular, have led to significant changes in many of the data management and information system functions of accounting. Current advances in information technology indicate that more profound changes may occur in the future. Insights into how …

Accounting History And Empirical Research, Barbara Dubis Merino, Alan G. Mayper Jan 1993

Accounting History And Empirical Research, Barbara Dubis Merino, Alan G. Mayper

Accounting Historians Journal

This paper examines historical methodology and suggests ways accounting history may be made more relevant to contemporary accounting researchers. First there is a brief discussion of the "traditional" accounting history method, the documentary model, and an examination of history methodologies that offer alternatives modes of inquiry. This includes the pattern model and rhetorical analysis. This discussion is brief and focused on only issues examined in subsequent discussion of the empirical research. The discussion of the empirical research, including behavioral research, focuses on three issues: retrodiction, with examples concerning securities legislation; belief transference, with examples concerning the demand for auditing; and …


Internal Control: How It Evolved In Four English-Speaking Countries, David Hay Jan 1993

Internal Control: How It Evolved In Four English-Speaking Countries, David Hay

Accounting Historians Journal

The concept of internal control, as embodied in auditing standards and other statements by professional accounting bodies, has varied over time and geographically. There are, however, a number of similarities in the events that shaped professional statements concerned with internal control in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. The evolution of internal control has been influenced by increasing public expectations of auditing standards. Another influence was a trend in the evolution of management control concepts towards recognizing a broader range of influences on the control of organizations: These trends have been opposed by auditors, who wished to …

Evolution Of Concepts Of Minority Interest, Myrtle W. Clark Jan 1993

Evolution Of Concepts Of Minority Interest, Myrtle W. Clark

Accounting Historians Journal

The FASB is currently addressing issues related to accounting for minority interest as a part of the "entity project". Decisions regarding the measurement and financial statement presentation depend upon the determination of the fundamental nature of minority interest. Alternative views describing the nature of minority interest rely upon alternative equity theories of consolidation. This paper traces the evolution of concepts of minority interest from the early 1900s to the present. The evolution is placed in perspective vis-a-vis the development of relevant corporate theories of equity
