Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Credit System Dynamic analysis is impossible, if not naturalistic. Progress consists in the passage, struggle, survival, or escape of an individual or individuals, through a series of environments. Even if the motion double upon itself and appear to be in a circle, it can only be analyzed upon the hypothesis of environments. Biological characterizations are thus indispensable to dynamic explanation. That the fortunes of a man be traced in his economic interests alone, or those of a typical man, or of a dollar, or a dollar's worth, makes no difference in the principle appealed to.

This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Credit System in France, Great Britain, and the United States When person and property are secure, the owners of capital are willing to apply it in various ways tending to aid the exertions Of the labourer. One employs it in making rail roads or canals, secure of receiving toll for their use; another builds houses and barns; a third constructs machines by which the labour of the farmer, or that of the cotton or wollen manufacturer is rendered more productive; a fourth opens a shop at which the manufac turer and the ploughman may exchange their products; and a fifth builds wagons or ships for the transportation Of such portions thereof as they may desire to exchange with persons at a dis tance. Unless they felt secure in so doing all would be disposed to retain their property in the most portable form, in order that it might most readily be concealed or carried Off. Thus in India, exposed to plunder from the army of friend or of foe, the owner of capital would not be willing to build houses, nor would be open a shop, because he could have no security that the former would not be destroyed, or the latter plundered.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Man at the Credit Desk Eventually the firm woke up to the fact that the present system of credit management, despite its low percentage of losses, was entirely too expensive by reason of the fact that much good business was being lost thru an ultra-conservative credit policy which the credit man was unwilling to change. Accordingly, a change in management was intro duced, and the man selected for the position, tho considerably younger than his predecessor and with out other experience in credit work than that which he had acquired as a subordinate in the department, was a broadminded chap and a diligent student of modern scientific business management. It wasjust because of its knowledge of this fact that the firm decided to put him in charge of the credit department. The first thing the new credit man did was to have a long conference with the sales manager. Our interests are identical, he said, and we must work together. I regard the information your men are in a position to give me as being fully as important as that which I can get from other sources. In fact this particular kind of information I cannot get from any other source. I am sure it will not be necessary for me to decline any accounts that your men recommend after visiting the merchant in his store. As a result of this interview a cordial letter was prepared and sent to the men on the road, in which the nature of the information wanted was suggested and its value pointed out. The letter said among other things. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Ways and Means of Payment written by Stephen Colwell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ways and Means of Payment: A Full Analysis of the Credit System, With Its Various Modes of Adjustment Money, by which we intend coins of gold or silver, is neither a standard of value, a measure of value, nor a representative of value. The precious metals are commodities of value, and do not, of course, lose that quality, though they gain another, by being coined. They become, by coinage and the law of legal tender, a standard of pay ment. Every man may, by law, claim payment in coins; that is, for any commodity previously sold, for any debt due, every person may exact the expressed equivalent in the commodity of gold and silver assayed and coined at the mint in denominations agreeing with the money of account. All debts are thus payable; and it is only be cause the parties agree to other modes of payment, that all debts are not thus paid. There are many obstacles to the use of coins in large transactions, besides their great cost; among these, the risks of theft and robbery, and the care and anxiety which these hazards impose, the danger of counterfeits, the rapid wear and deterioration of coins, the frauds of clipping, punching, sweating, and many others, which are regarded as severe grievances and trials in all countries where an exclusively metallic currency has long prevailed. All these combined have pro duced a constant effort to escape the employment of coins in large transactions. Gold and silver coins have not lost their interest in the eyes of men; they are still the standard of payment, and universally an acceptable medium of exchange; but they are far from being the universally employed medium of exchange. The men of trade and industry, who but receive money in large amounts to pass it off in the same way, are more concerned to escape trouble, risk and expense in the matter of payment, than anxious to employ only gold and silver which have passed through the mint.

Download or read book Credit Vol 3 Classic Reprint written by J. Laurence Laughlin and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Credit, Vol. 3 The difference is wide: walking is one thing, the reasons why one walks (to one's office or to a funeral) are very different. Hence it is well not to assign much importance to the easy etymological derivation of credit from credere (meaning "to have confidence"). By general agreement, usage would never allow any obligation entered into for the future delivery of personal services to be spoken of as credit; and rightly. A contract to work ten hours a day for the coming three months should not be regarded as a credit obligation. We may, therefore, agree to confine credit operations to goods or property of a transferable kind. And, in the conception of credit, with the transfer goes the right to make any ordinary use of the goods; it carries with it the power, not merely to keep possession, but to destroy entirely (but always with the purpose of reproduction), if that is the best means of increasing product and getting back goods for repayment. Hence the lease of a house would not be a credit transaction. That is, we have in mind, generally, the transfer of quickly saleable goods, which need not always be returned in kind, but by an equivalent; not the same wheat, or wool, or gold which was borrowed, but the equivalent of them. Many contracts appear as results of credit transactions. For instance, A borrows the means to finish the building of his house; he obtains certain goods which he inserts into his structure; and he gives a promissory note to B for its repayment, secured by a pledge of his property in the form known to the law as a mortgage. The note and the mortgage are merely the legal methods adopted to make repayment more certain; they are not essential in the credit itself. The real importance should be put on the transfer to A of means returnable to B in the future. Legal and customary forms intended to secure repayment have created different devices in the same community; while the prevailing habits of different countries have given rise to varying methods of obtaining the same result. In one situation, for instance, a book entry, in another a bill of exchange, in another a promissory note, are found most suitable. In short, the circumstances of the loan, the opinions and convenience of the parties to the contract, and the like, may bring into use a great variety of legal forms, all resulting from the primary transfer of goods. The undue insistence upon legal forms arising out of credit draws attention away from the economic processes essential and intrinsic in it to the non-essential and external forms outside of it. The familiar case of a bank loan illustrates this truth: there is the essential element in the transfer of capital to the borrower on an obligation to return an equivalent value at a fixed time in the future; but the evidences of the transaction, whether in the form of a book entry as a deposit, or the passing of the bank's own notes, or the giving of a cashier's draft for the sum, are secondary matters, or consequences, arising out of the original credit operation.

This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rural Credit System Needed in Western Development One of the important questions confronting this country is the creation of a land policy suited to conditions which have arisen in the last quarter of a century. Until recently it was our boast that any man who had industry and thrift could enjoy landed independence. That statement needs now to be qualified. The increase in the number of farm renters compared with the number of farm owners; the colonizing of rural communities with foreign-born immi grants who can and do pay higher rents because they are content with a lower standard of living, are significant indications of the dangers to rural life which need to be removed.

Download or read book Mercantile Credits written by Finley H. McAdow and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mercantile Credits: A Practical Study of the Credit Man's Work The purpose of this book is to serve as a means for a more careful study of some of the problems involved in the granting of mercantile credits, and of the principles to be applied in the solution of those problems. In addition to giving this direct assistance, it is hoped that the book will stimulate and encourage a more careful study of the credit question in general. Now, as in the past, men come into the credit field without previous preparation and learn mostly by experi ence. Their entrance into this line of work is generally the result of fortuitous circumstances rather than of any purposeful plan. The author himself became a credit man in this haphazard way, passing on credits having been simply added in the course of time to his other duties. Notwithstanding that perhaps the majority of credit men have secured their training in some such way as this, this method of training credit men in the hard school of experience is not only laborious to the men themselves, but unquestionably also expensive to the employing firm, as during the years in which experience is being gained the standard of efficiency in the credit work is bound to be lower than if the men did not rely entirely on experience but supplemented it by study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bankers and Credit What happened to our monetary system during and after the war, some of the things that a crowd of critics and reformers want to do to it now, and the reasons which seem to me to confirm the opinion of our leading bankers, that the first thing to do is to get back to the gold standard on the pre-war basis, are the subject of this book. It cannot claim to have covered all the suggestions of all the monetary reformers, who have been multiplied almost as fast as money by the efforts of our politicians. All that it can hope to do is to cull a few of the brightest flowers of the criticism that has bloomed so freely, and to put before the lay reader, in language that he can understand, some of the ambitions of those who believe that the economic Paradise is to be won by monetary manipulation.
