Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the importance of municipal accounting and presents a practical system to promote improved accounting in a public sphere that has long suffered from inadequate oversight. The author frames the discussion in the context of public authorities assuming the ownership and operation of essential services that were previously operated by private enterprise. The author notes that municipalities often lack useful data on the cost of these services and lack proper accounting systems, including internal controls, and that this leads to a lack of accountability to the public. The book explains that poor accounting systems cause other problems, such as the failure to distinguish between capital and operating accounts and the lack of transparency into the overall financial condition of a municipality. This book will be of interest to anyone invested in the management of municipalities, especially those with a background in accounting.
