Overview

This monograph presents a methodology based on the concept of cash flow and produces, in tabular form, annual cash flow statements for a sample population of 20 companies in coal, iron and steel from their respective formation dates to 1914. For the benefit of the non-accountant, a detailed example showing the means by which these figures are derived is included, together with an analysis of the development of the financial reporting process through the second half of the 19th century.
