A COST PLAN
AND SYSTEM FOR
AUTO INDUSTRY

The following article appears iu

Evening Post on April g. 1920.
Considerable interest b. being man
Tested by automobile dealers and
garages throughout the middle wcst
In connection with an accounting s's-
tom that has been devised by the
Richards Audit COMPANY
The plan and system was originally
submitted to tho dealers and garages
in Detroit, and u gained so much
favor that Il was rapidly adopted 10y
several hundred firms tn that city
and in the state Of Michigan.
The plan enables tho dealer 20 do
terminc the profitable and unprofit-
able phases Of his business, and II f.
SO arranged that he can readily do
tcrmine tho amount of profit mado
on new cars, used cars, tire" gas. oil,
parts, accessories, etc. Tho amount
of new business and the source ~
sam is readily determined. and 1t
provides an infallihlo check on parts.

one OF its many features is the
simplicity OF its design and case Of
operation, and the standordilinG and
combining of all the forms In one
loose leaf binder. OF its many la
bor-saVing features. the posting to
the general ledger Of over 90 per cent
OF the details has reduced the clerical
work to "A minimum. This greatly
facilitates the drawing of OF n
monthly profit and loss statement
and statement OF assets and liabili-
ties. The one binder system is di-
vided into six sections as follows;
Cash receipts, cash disbursements
purchase, record sale, register. jour
nal and general ledger. Each see
tion balances within itself before tho
postings are made TO the general
ledger. The special arrangements Of
the cash books automatically shows
the daily bank balance and supplies
an extra bookkeeper on the cash,

The statement OF assets and liabill-
ties which is prepared may be used
for one or all OF the following pur-
poses: Bank. in case OF loan, credit
rating, insurance. income tax pur-
poses, ascortaining what effect the
operations for the current month
have upon the business as whole.
and in determining the solvency Of
the business.
The profit -nnd-loss statement
shows: % The profitable and un-
profitable business. go Which
branch OF tho business to push. (3)

Geddes, new ambassador from Great
Britain TO the United States, is fac

Arthur Lynch, who recently returned
from tho United States and who has
outlined the situation in an article in
the Daily Express. Yet Doctor
Lynch believes that the government
has made good choice" for the job.
Doctor Lynch pays tribute to the
Americans ability to distinguish be-
tween imam" and manner" and
feels certain that Sir Auckland will
measure up to Americas standard OF
a man. Continuing, he says:
THE main thing is to recognize
the big interests OF America. the fact
that henccforth she is destined 10 be
a great world force. and that. among
other things, shc may soon be out
for tho biggest navy on earth. or on
ocean.
The internal resources Of the
country are vast beyond comprehen-
