Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Principles of Bookkeeping: Introductory Course, Illustrating the Journal Method of Closing the Ledger
1. It is of first importance that the student should begin his work in accounts at some point where knowledge of his own is readily associated with that systematic arrangement of the record of business transactions termed Bookkeeping. The unknown must come into definite contact with the known if the mind of the learner is to be led step by step to larger understanding. Students who know nothing of accounts are Often very familiar with the buying of household articles, and understand that they get one value by giving some other value in return. The starting point in this text treats of the giving and the receiving Of values, and this feature is developed by a series of graded exercises.
