The starting point for this study is an analysis of articles of association. It shows us that the choice of an accounting model was influenced by such matters as the class of shareholder and the traditions and operating conditions particular to each branch of activity. For example, double entry was the merchant's model and was used in the textile industry, where the capital came from trade. On the other hand, charge and discharge accounting was the accounting model of mining and metallurgical enterprises where the capital was injected mainly by the nobility or financiers.1 However, the dominance of stewardship accounting in these sectors is not entirely due to historical tradition. This model was founded on the separation between capital ownership and management and centred on the notions of responsibility, accountability and control, so it ...","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131899013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The range of awareness of accounting historians gains from knowledge of the context within which accounting techniques evolved and were put to use. Business historians, in their turn, have much to gain from applying modern financial accounting concepts retrospectively to surviving quantitative data and much to learn about the dangers of misrepresentation (particularly from published data). A further dimension which needs much more research is the contemporary use of management accounting data and concepts as tools for decision making: the published literature of accounting and legally required published annual accounts are not an accurate guide to the diffusion and use of these techniques.","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130781476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the major reports received by management included technical information, financial accounting information and cost accounting data, such as a breakdown of unit cost, less attention was paid in them to profitability or sales. Cost calculation was exclusively approached from a historical, ‘full’ cost angle, though it should be recognized that strongly varying practices concerning asset capitalization and depreciation give a different meaning to ‘full’ as between the various mining concerns studied.","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125601261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The enlightened age of the Working Rules of 1934, the first accounting principles in Japan, was quite short, and from 1940 to 1945 Japan experienced an age of accounting control. The economic control of this period, however, did not completely restrict the profitmaking ability of Japanese companies or negate the free-market principles upon which the Japanese economy was based. The system of accounting control in Japan was not a direct state control system but rather an unique ‘two-stage co-ordination system’ between the government, industrial control associations (Toseikai) for each industry and individual companies. The most significant development during the 1930s and 1940s was the emergence of the Ministry of Finance as the leading administrative organ, not only of fund control but also of corporate accounting control.","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128062444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evidence of certain mature costing methods, not thought to have pre-dated the 1880s, is detailed and a perspective on iron-industry cost-management practices is provided.

These two New Zealand companies were nominated by The Wall Street Journal as the two worst performing shares on the Australasian sharemarket of 1987. To explain the sudden rise and fall of the Renouf and Judge Corporations, we discuss some significant structural features of the 1980s’ share market. We seek to explain the conditions that made such a dramatic rise and fall possible. In particular, we examine how key directors presented themselves as financial experts and created favourable impressions of profit and growth. Second, we focus on the use of creative accounting strategies and the manipulation of accounting information. Third, we analyse the contribution of financial institutions and regulatory bodies in permitting breaches of financial ratios and market rules. We conclude by noting the recurrence of sharemarket collapses and the concurrent examples of investor beguilemen...","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131918575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
