The Evaluation of Modern Business Accounting Records

Author
  • Dennis Meissner (Minnesota Historical Society)

Abstract

Evaluation of record series for the purpose of bulk reduction is one of the more salient professional responsibilities facing archivists today. Problems imposed by bulk become especially vexatious in the cases of large modern business organizations, in great part due to the many series of accounting records created to control and monitor the financial workings of a company. How many of these records must we retain in order to preserve an accurate picture of the financial history of a business organization?
