Since the publication of the second edition of this book in 1916, the fluctuations in financial and business conditions have been more violent than during any previous five years in the history of the world. We have had unparalleled inflation and partial deflation. Tax rates have been so high that nearly seveneighths of the net incomes of some taxpayers for one year were paid in taxes. Notwithstanding the extraordinary tax levies, the annual net incomes remaining to many taxpayers after allowance for taxes exceeded their incomes of prior years. Some concerns are worse off financially in 1921 than in 1916; they made large paper profits and distributed only a small portion of their realized profits in dividends, but they overexpanded or they were not prepared for the rapid fall in prices. Conservative concerns paid relatively higher taxes than those which had never pursued conservative policies. Professional auditors occupied responsible, arduous, and useful positions throughout the five years. In theW orld War they were found in the trenches, in aeroplanes, and in vessels on and under the water. Those who were not allowed to fight the enemy. abroad, fought him at home. The war was won in more ways than one. The professional auditor did his duty to his country and to his profession. The profession met the test of war and inflation and has tremendously increased in prestige. There is no longer any doubt regarding the value of the services of the professional accountant. What of the future? Have we learned anything? Did any of our theories fail in application at critical times? An inclusive answer can be made. In serving others, accountants have served themselves. The future is bright because we have profited by our mistakes.
