Accounting Principles, Vol. 9 (Classic Reprint)

This book is the result of fourteen years experience as a teacher and student of accounting principles. In this study the author has accepted no accounting practice as correct merely because it was the practice and no statement of principle as true merely because it was the printed word, but has insisted on minutely and critically examining these practices and doctrines in the light of fundamental economic facts. That which was arbitrary he sought to put upon either a rational or a historical foundation. That which was plausible but which would not stand detailed critical analysis he has sought to correct in the light of economic fundamentals; For accounting principles and economic principles are not inconsistent when both are understood and correctly formulated.
