Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Modern Bookkeeping The keeping of books of account is generally considered as a means to an end, rather than as an end in itself - a means to the proper ascertainment of the position of the business concerned in relation to its various affairs, so far as this can be shown by figures From this point of view the shorter the means adopted to secure a result the better. Bookkeeping to-day is not what it was fifty or a hundred years ago, as it has been affected by the general desire to shorten labour The result is that, although good modern bookkeeping is much more efficient than the bookkeeping of a bygone age, yet the very brevity which is its advantage is apt to obscure the principles upon which it is founded. But though to the owner of a business the keeping of books is only a means to an end, yet to the bookkeeper or to the accountant, books are the tools with which he works, and he needs therefore to have complete familiarity with them - a familiarity which can only be attained when he has so grasped the principle on which they are kept as to be able to apply it to every conceivable transaction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 20th Century Bookkeeping and Accounting: A Treatise on Modern Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Business Customs, as Illustrated in the "Business Transactions" Which Accompany This Text The successful business man should know that a profit will result from the transactions in connection with his business before they are completed. To deter mine this he should have such information as will show the detailed operating cost, ' the profit from trading or other Operations, the net profit for each fiscal period, its source, and the increase or decrease over previous periods. A report concerning the failure or suspension of a business, accompanied with the statement that the creditors will not know what percentage of their claim may be collected until the experts have audited the books, indicates that the manage ment did not have all the facts available in connection with the business. Such a statement is so common in the newspaper announcement of failures that it sug gests a connection between accounting and success. If these conditions are to be improved, it is necessary to teach the correct principles of accounting and the best practice in applying them. The bookkeeping student of to-day is the bookkeeper or business man of to-morrow. If he has a knowledge of the correct principles, as bookkeeper, he will apply them, or, as manager, he will see that they are applied by the bookkeeper. The purpose of this text is to present the correct principles of bookkeeping and accounting, - principles advocated and practiced by modern bookkeepers and accountants. The information upon which it is based was obtained from standard authorities on accounting and from consultations with practicing book keepers and accountants. The text is prepared primarily for the student and not for the practicing book keeper or accountant. The presentation permits the beginner to master first the simple principles of accounting as applied in a small business. When he understands these, he can then appreciate the more complicated principles of accounting necessary in recording the transactions for a business of extensive operations. A study of the text would result in only a theoretical knowledge of the subject. Practice is necessary in applying the principles. This practice is provided in the sets that accompany the text. Each set has its outline of accounts based on the nature of the business and the number of transactions in connection therewith.

A study of the text would result in only a theoretical knowledge of the subject. Practice is necessary in applying the principles. A correct knowledge of the principles is essential, but efficiency in applying this knowledge is of equal importance. The student who has mastered the principles of bookkeeping and accounting should have also acquired accuracy, neatness and speed. For this reason the practice sets require the recording of a number of transactions, - a sufficient number to impress on the student's mind the importance of a correct record and to give him confidence and skill in applying his knowledge of the subject. That the student may learn to recognize a transaction from the paper that represents it in business, he is required to make his record in the practice sets from reproduced business papers. The transactions, moreover, are practical, and identical with those that occur in business. Applying the correct principles and recording practical transactions represented in the same manner as they are in business, gives the student a knowledge of the subject which will make his services desirable to the business man, and valuable to himself.
