Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electric Railway Accounting, 1906: The Monthly Report, the Accounting Department, and the Accountant As a beginning, it seems best to explain the result desired to be reached by this little book and the conditions which have brought it about. The subject of accounting is very large; it is the beginning and the result of all effort wherein money or its equivalent forms a part. It follows, therefore, that such a comprehensive subject must be treated in its different lines of action, that is, specialized. Many works have considered the accounting of street (or more properly now, electric), railways, but always from a standpoint outside the actual operation of such work. It is hoped here to show the subject in a somewhat more intimate light. The subject, even though limited to electric railways, is so large and all parts of it are so important to the result, that it has been difficult to fix limits within which the discussion could be kept and still be broad enough to make a discussion anywhere near complete. It is also well to explain that the author has not intended to convey the impression that the subject is treated in all its bearings. Each subject treated is capable of much enlargement and elucidation, and it could properly be carried to greater length. But an effort has been made to keep within well defined bounds and yet provide a basis for a better understanding of a part of electric railway accounting. His work is simply a brief consideration of the text provided by the title. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
