Excerpt from Principles of Bookkeeping: Complete Course Illustrating the Journal Method of Closing the Ledger The modern business world demands of its employees economy and efficiency, and the commercial training in our schools, to be successful, must meet this demand of' the business world by texts whose value is educational as well as practical. Such a text the authors have tried to furnish in this volume. Their aim has been an elementary book which shall present a simple, practical study of the basic facts of book keeping in a manner that will command the interest of the pupil and that will impress upon his mind the methods and practices of the office as well as the duties and technical knowledge and vocabulary of the bookkeeper and the accountant. The grading and development of the work, its classification, the terms used, and the forms adopted all have the same aim, the making of an efficient, well-informed bookkeeper. To apply a principle is of far more practical value than the ability to define it, and in this text principles are described and applied by the pupils before they are formally defined for them. This inductive method, characteristic of the entire book, stimulates the pupil to think for himself and to cultivate the self-reliance and independence so univer sally demanded of him. The numerous exercises and illustrations used in the approach to a given subject, and the many and varied reviews and problems, are positive factors in appealing to and developing this independence. As a basis for the elementary work, the authors have adopted the pupil's own knowledge of simple business transactions, - the exchange of values with which he is already familiar in the buying of many of the articles used in the home. Thus the new subject is approached with confidence through well-known operations. A number of sets are arranged for business practice which may be carried out as fully as the instructor desires; for since all of this work is optional, it may be fitted to the needs of the individual class. The business practice may be omitted in any set at the discretion of the instructor. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
