Accountancy Problems With Solutions: With Solutions, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)

So far as the author is aware diis is the first attempt to put before American students of accountancy solutions to practical problems in any extensive form.

A nother reason for including this essay is that it discusses a subject that is involved in many of the most difficult C. P. A. questions. Some of these questions are solved in the course of the essay. Part II presents selected American C. P. A. problems, as well as some of the problems set byE nglish societies, and covers the period from 1898 to 1908, inclusive. The selection is made with a view to illustrating practically all the important principles involved in the problems set so far by American examining boards.

In Part III are one hundred and five selected questions and answers on theory of accounts, auditing, and commercial law.

The author gives in this part an introductory essay comparo of -f n. -V.
