Placing the history of accounting in context with other fields of study, the collection gives invaluable insights to subjects such as the rise of capitalism, the control of labour, gender and family relationships, racial exploitation, the functioning of the state, and the pursuit of military conflict. An engaging and comprehensive overview also examining geographical differences, this Companion is split into key sections, which explore: changing technologies used to represent financial and other data historical development of accounting theory and practice accounting institutions and those who perform accounting accountancy and the economy accounting, society, and culture the role of accounting in the government, protection and financing of states including chapters on the important role played by accountancy in religious organizations, a review of how the discipline is portrayed in fine art and popular culture, and analysis of sharp practice and corporate scandals. The Routledge Companion to Accounting History has a breadth of coverage that is unmatched in this growing area of study. Bringing together leading writers in the field, this is an essential reference work for any student of accounting, business and management, and history.

Book Synopsis More Than a Numbers Game by : Thomas A. King
Download or read book More Than a Numbers Game written by Thomas A. King and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-02-17 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world certainly suffers no shortage of accounting texts. The many out there help readers prepare, audit, interpret and explain corporate financial statements. What has been missing is a book offering context and discussion for divisive issues such as taxes, debt, options, and earnings volatility. King addresses the why of accounting instead of the how, providing practitioners and students with a highly readable history of U.S. corporate accounting. More Than a Numbers Game: A Brief History of Accounting was inspired by Arthur Levitt's landmark 1998 speech delivered at New York University. The Securities and Exchange Commission chairman described the too-little challenged custom of earnings management and presaged the breakdown in the US corporate accounting three years later. Somehow, over a one-hundred year period, accounting morphed from a tool used by American railroad managers to communicate with absent British investors into an enabler of corporate fraud. How this happened makes for a good business story. This book is not another description of accounting scandals. Instead it offers a history of ideas. Each chapter covers a controversial topic that emerged over the past century. Historical background and discussion of people involved give relevance to concepts discussed. The author shows how economics, finance, law and business customs contributed to accounting's development. Ideas presented come from a career spent working with accounting information.

Book Synopsis The Origins of Accounting Culture by : Massimo Sargiacomo
Download or read book The Origins of Accounting Culture written by Massimo Sargiacomo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Origins Of Accounting Culture aim at studying the origins of the accounting culture in Venice, with a specific focus on accounting education. The period covered by the work ranges from Luca Pacioli to the foundation (in 1868) of the Royal Advanced School of Commerce (Regia Scuola Superiore di Commercio), that in 2018 is celebrating its 150 anniversary as Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. Ever since the Middle Ages, Venice was home of a number of favourable circumstances that have been accumulating over the years. As a trading city par excellence, Venice allowed the spreading of the bookkeeping at first among firms and then in the public administration that was much in need of sophisticated accounting principles for the purpose of controlling its activities. Venice was among the first cities to implement Gutenberg print method and it quickly became the most important city in the world in the publishing industry, allowing printing and spreading the first handbooks about double-entry bookkeeping and merchant studies. The Origins Of Accounting Culture goes beyond the study of Luca Pacioli and tackles in a more organic and holistic way the social and economic conditions that allowed the accounting culture to spread in Venice. This book will be a vital resource to academics and researchers in the fields of Accounting, Accounting History, Economic Development and related disciplines.

Book Synopsis Two Hundred Years of Accounting Research by : Richard Mattessich
Download or read book Two Hundred Years of Accounting Research written by Richard Mattessich and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first and only book to offer a comprehensive survey of accounting research on a broad international scale for the last two centuries. Its main emphasis is on accounting research in the English, German, Italian, French and Spanish language areas; it also contains chapters dealing with research in Finland, the Netherlands, Scandinavia, Russia, Poland and the Ukraine as well as Argentina and Japan. In a time of financial globalization, familiarity with accounting research in countries beyond the English language boundary is no less important than familiarity with the recent, comprehensive research activity in the English language area. It also offers a survey of the present state of the art (from empirical to analytical accounting and from such esoteric subjects as gender issues to the archaeology of accounting); finally, it casts a glance into the future.

Written by experts the studies in this volume provide a unique guide to the development of accounting theory and practice in regions as diverse as the USA, Japan and Europe.
Book Synopsis Historic Accounting Literature by : Basil Yamey
Download or read book Historic Accounting Literature written by Basil Yamey and published by Pickering & Chatto Limited. This book was released on 1990-10-01 with total page 8000 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within these volumes are detailed a host of commodities, transactions, trading methods and practices which established Europe as the trading centre of the world for centuries. The post-medieval expansion of commerce brought merchants, traders, lawyers and bankers face to face with many unprecedented theoretical and practical problems. Before they could come to terms with a new business environment, they needed to devise new systems to record, monitor and control the financial aspects of trade. Books on the theory and practice of accounting date from the beginning of this great global expansion in trade, and to a large extent the practices they delineated determined its activity and progress. Most of the texts in the series were written as works of instruction for students and apprentices, or as practical guides for merchants and traders. The texts in this second series, reprinted in facsimile, show the development of book keeping in the 350 years after Pacioli's exposition of the double entry in Summa de Arithmetica. The texts, in English, German, Italian, French, Spanish and Dutch, cover the entire scope of theory and practice in accounting and bookkeeping, and illustrate the spread of ideas between ascendant and declining powers in European trade in this period. The collection is based on the library of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in London, whose holdings in bookkeeping and accountancy are the finest in the world. Also in the series are included works from the collections of the British Library and two previously unknown works discovered by Professor Yamey and reproduced from the unique copies in the Economisch-Historische Bibliotheek in Amsterdam.
