The book contains a collection of papers dealing with a range of
controversial accounting issues which exercised the minds of local
authority officials during the period 1909-1934 and the "solutions"
embodied in the Accounts (Boroughs and Metropolitan Boroughs)
Regulations 1930. The contributors to the debate were mainly local
government officials and the items reproduced cover a wide range of
matters such as the content of the abstract accounts; the need for
standardization and an illuminating comparison of the nature and
contents of municipal accounts with those of limited companies. A
number of issues which received close attention from the literature
during the early part of the present century were related to the
growth of municipal trading undertakings (water, gas, tramways and
electricity). The pricing of these services was a matter of
considerable debate; questions included whether these services
should be priced to generate a profit, break-even or receive a
subsidy from the rates. The depreciation question and the related
issues of loan periods and the need for a sinking fund receive some
attention as do the growing concern of municipal debt.
