Abstract
YOU are interested in an accounting system for your store or you would not have asked for this booklet. The aim in this Business Record System is simplicity, directness and efficiency. To carry out this same idea, we will plunge at once into the working of this system without the usual booklet preliminaries of trying to fan your emotions up to "buying heat." What we want is to convince your common sense and reason in the interest of better business. This system is the result of the careful study of the needs and desires of the 20,000 representative jewelers in the United States. It was evolved in order to give facts each man needs to know. It is interpretative accounting, not mere bookkeeping or record making. Its aim is not simply to provide a way of keeping books or facts, but rather showing how to make vital facts work for your profit. Facts and figures are entered and arranged and compared in such a way that, with the least expenditure of time and energy, you can know each day what every part of your business is doing and why. You know each night, each week, each month, each year the facts you need to guide you in all your buying, your selling and your management. It is the brains of your business. It is intelligence.
