The present paper concentrates on the accounting treatment of the trade which, because of its importance, was rigorously controlled through a system of double entry bookkeeping. In this field the author has selected accounting information relative to sales of non-American silver, specifically from the mines of Guadalcanal and Aracena. Although these were greatly inferior in output to the American mines, their accounting treatment was similar. The author has therefore examined their principal account books, the journal and ledger, which provide an excellent example of the general scheme, used also in accounting for American silver.","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"5 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":"130259583","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}

Schmandt-Besserat recognized that ‘tokens’ (small clay counters) constitute an accounting system, widely used in the Near East from about 8,000 BC to 3,000 BC, that existed for five millennia. She also drew parallels between the shapes of the tokens and those of the first signs of writing, establishing accounting as the prerequisite and impetus to writing and abstract counting. A third part offers (in addition to the notes for Parts I and II) a summary of the ‘Stages in the Evolution of Accounting and Symbolic Representation in the Prehistoric Middle East’ (Appendix A) and of ‘Major Steps and Publications Toward an Archaeology of Accounting’ (Appendix B), as well a...","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"32 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":"121603664","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}

It takes one Year - 1911 - and provides a statistical snapshot of the profession in terms of its size and its domination by the chartered accountants of the City of London. By 1911 the leading firms of today had already established their dominance although they did not have as big a share of the market. Only 7 per cent of accountants worked outside public practice but, regarding accountants’ role in management, just under 10 per cent of quoted companies had accountants on their boards of directors in 1911. The reasons for their appointment as directors included the fact that they were wealthy shareholders in their own right or were engaged in company promotion, but they were also put on the board to exploit their accounting expertise. In this latter context there is some evidence that their help was especially sought by companies in distress or involved in me...","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"92 3-4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132330725","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}

It provided for indexation to reflect fluctuations in the prices of three grains. The object was to give the tithe-owners approximately the same money incomes as they would have expected under the old system, and tithepayers the same burden. This scheme was crippled by the collapse of agricultural prices after 1875. The First World War caused further disruption, and indexation was abandoned. The 1930s depression made tithes an intolerable burden on farmers, and after 1936 they were commuted to redemption annuities (abolished 1977) or the capital was redeemed.","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"20 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":"115939477","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}

This ledger provides daily harvest data, by slave, for those years. The ledger also lists the inventory of the plantation's slaves as of 1 January 1828, and their marriages, births and deaths. Locust Grove increased its inventory of slaves over the years 1825 to 1844 and sold few slaves. Correlation and regression analysis show that age was not related to picking productivity, while gender was related. Females were better pickers than males. Accounting is a product of its environment, and the environment in antebellum south Mississippi provided a need for a sophisticated record of worker productivity. Research evidence shows that plantation management used the slave ledger to manage by the numbers.","PeriodicalId":252763,"journal":{"name":"Accounting, Business and Financial History","volume":"45 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":"123218948","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}
