Opis: Elements of Accounting - Klein Joseph J.

Excerpt from Elements of Accounting: Theory and Practice

The history of commercial training in America forms an interesting chapter in the educational development of the country. At first, there were no organized schools, but later the so-called business college came into its own. Then, public high schools and academies began to offer courses in bookkeeping and business practice. The very latest phase of commercial educational development concerns itself with university training in accounting and business organization and administration.

Paralleling the development of business schools, we find a literature peculiarly adapted to the purposes of such institutions. These bookkeeping texts make a particular appeal to the young and immature, while their chief value lies in the abundance of drill furnished, and in the detailed information contained. It is almost solely by repetition that a knowledge of bookkeeping is imparted to the persons for whom these books are mainly intended. On the other hand, the requirements of universities and other higher institutions of learning are met by a number of excellent texts, but these are not nearly as suitable as in the case of the elementary institutions. The chief fault lies in the wide gap between the elementary books in bookkeeping and the advanced works in accounting. And this is written despite the authors indebtedness to the late Professor Charles E. Sprague's pioneer work. The Philosophy of Accounts; to Professor Henry Rand Hatfields Modern Accounting, and to Professor Leo Greendlinger's Accountancy Problems, the first case book in the subject.
