Excerpt from Quasi-Public Corporation Accounting and Management
The evolution of business into corporate form necessitated a corresponding change in the methods of accounting and management, especially so for the quasi-public corporation, whose principal and auxiliary books are radically different from those of the ordinary business corporation.
The scarcity of material data bearing upon Quasi-Public Corporation Accounting and Management suggested to the writer that a book of this character would be of interest not alone to those engaged either in an administrative or executive capacity in the respective corporations referred to herein, but especially so to the accountant whose duty it is to arrange special forms and books of account for his particular line of business.
It is the intention of the writer to state briefly the books, forms, and methods necessary for the proper organization and management of the business and the recording of all the essential details of Revenue, Operation, Maintenance, and Construction, with the least possible expenditure of time and labor consistent with good management and explicit statements as to Profit and Loss and Assets and Liabilities.
The author desires to express thanks to Mr. William Wheeler, for his review of the part on Water Works and for the use of some of his forms; to Mr. Albert F. Davol, for his review of the part on Telephone Companies; to Mr. William F. Goepper, for his review of the part on Electric Light Works; and to Mr. James H. Neal, for his valuable suggestions on Electric Railway accounting and his general review of the entire world.
