Abstract

Mississippi businessmen, in fact all businessmen, should be vitally interested in the operating results of their enterprises. They are hopeful of increasing net income. The tool which produces the results they are so interested in is accounting, often referred to as the language of business, the medium through which operating results are made known. This brief study in no way undertakes to teach the multitude of complex problems that arise in accounting for business today. Rather, it offers a brief explanation of, or reference to, some of the problems which will arise in even small businesses. Many of the topics of discussion will be elementary to some. Their inclusion here, however, is intended to stimulate thinking about some accounting essentials of which most businessmen are aware, although they have not seen fit to use all of them in their businesses. If the booklet results in just one Mississippi businessman adopting new methods or procedures which eventually help his business, then it will have served its purpose.
