Early Efforts Of The U.S. Public Accounting Profession To Investigate The Use Of Statistical Sampling, James Joseph Tucker, Frank C. Lordi Jan 1997

Early Efforts Of The U.S. Public Accounting Profession To Investigate The Use Of Statistical Sampling, James Joseph Tucker, Frank C. Lordi

Accounting Historians Journal

The study suggests that the AICPA's efforts to investigate the use of statistical sampling appear to have been catalyzed by the confluence of the growing dissatisfaction with the traditional approach to sampling and the widespread recognition of the benefits of statistical sampling which were being realized in other professions and in industry. The fact that large corporations had begun to use statistical sampling in accounting and auditing lent additional urgency to the need to address the issue. In addition, some doubted the tenability of traditional sampling if challenged in court by a statistician. The study also examines the research efforts …


Influence Of Scottish Accountants In The United States: The Early Case Of The Society Of Accountants In Edinburgh, T. A. Lee Jan 1997

Influence Of Scottish Accountants In The United States: The Early Case Of The Society Of Accountants In Edinburgh, T. A. Lee

Accounting Historians Journal

This study represents part of a long-term research program to investigate the influence of U.K. accountants on the development of professional accountancy in other parts of the world. It examines the impact of a small group of Scottish chartered accountants who emigrated to the U.S. in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Set against a general theory of emigration, the study's main results reveal the significant involvement of this group in the founding and development of U.S. accountancy. The influence is predominantly with respect to public accountancy and its main institutional organizations. Several of the individuals achieved considerable eminence in …

Reexamination Of The Development Of The Accounting Profession - Critical Events From 1912-1940, Ram S. Sriram, Gloria Vollmers Jan 1997

Reexamination Of The Development Of The Accounting Profession - Critical Events From 1912-1940, Ram S. Sriram, Gloria Vollmers

Accounting Historians Journal

This study reexamines the accounting profession's response to opportunities and incentives given it during three unique periods in its history to foster reliable accounting, reporting and auditing practices. By profession, we mean the auditors of publicly held companies as represented by the American Institute of Accountants and its predecessor, the American Association of Public Accountants (AAPA). We use two models of professionalism, the Functionalist and the Conflict models, to interpret the profession's response to these events. We find that both self interest and the public interest may have motivated many of the actions taken. These motivations are not, however, mutually …

Use Of Historical Data In Accounting Research: The Case Of The American Sugar Refining Company, Robert J. Bricker, Kevin Brown Jan 1997

Use Of Historical Data In Accounting Research: The Case Of The American Sugar Refining Company, Robert J. Bricker, Kevin Brown

Accounting Historians Journal

In 1908, the American Sugar Refining Company (ASR) reversed its long-held policy of secrecy as to its financial condition and performance. Prior work, applying contemporary capital market methods to ASR security price data of that period, has suggested a value to ASR shareholders of this policy reversal. This paper examines the historical record of that time and presents additional evidence on this matter, particularly in terms of identifying potentially confounding events occurring during the period under study. The results of this analysis suggest a difficulty in attributing observed abnormal returns to ASR's secrecy policy reversal on the basis of the …

Accounting History: The Contribution Of Osamu Zojima, John K. Courtis Jan 1997

Accounting History: The Contribution Of Osamu Zojima, John K. Courtis

Accounting Historians Journal

In 1987, Professor Kojima published his 16 chapter Japanese version of Introduction to Accounting History. His intention was to prepare an English translation, but he died on 21 February 1989 from cardiac infarction having reached the middle of the 13th chapter with an unfinished handwritten first draft. After this draft was subsequently typed, the unfinished portion of the English translation was completed by Mr E. Usami. Consultation with Professor B. S. Yamey resulted in the correction of errors by Professor Kojima's loyal colleagues, Professors Yoshihiro Hirabayashi (Osaka City University), Hiroyasu Okitsu (Kinki University) and Tsuneo Nakano (Kobe University). The translation …
