WHAT FARM ACCOUNTING MEANT ~ INTHE MANAGEMENT OF A FARM

Successful Farmer Tells How Pencil Helped Guide His Operations and Swell His Income—An Aid to : Better Credit—Shows Profits and Prevents Losses.

’I‘HE owner and operator of one of the most successful dairy farms in Wisconsin prepared recently for the Agricultural Commission of the American Bankers Association a first hand statement of the part farm accounting has played in the management of his enterprise. This operator, W. J. Dougan, tells the following story: - “When 1 started farming I began keeping a simple cash account, but soon found that it was not sufficient accounting for

farm purposes. Such a record did not: take into consideration the wvital factors of improvements, growth of livestock or depreciation. “Since <l9lO T have kept a complete account on the accrual basis. The accounts, however, are no more than any farmer can easily keep. The outstanding benefits from keeping such accounts might be listed as follows: - The Way It Works “l. Income tax reports made easier. —Accurate and dependable income tax reports can be made from the yearly accounts. By keeping them on file I am always ready to satisfy the tax inspectors. : “2. Accounting makes possible a budget system.—With the accumulated data of the past years, I can make out the budget for the coming year. The income being fairly stable, the budget problem is to adjust the expenditures. If one branch of the business will need extraordinary expenditure such as new machinery, there ‘must be a cut in some other branch, such as building or livestock 'purchased, or. fenging. “3.

complete financial statement before him the banker can intelligently deter mine what credit I should have. With a full knowledg: of the farm profits in the past, I know what credit 1 should accept. No farmer or business man should accept credit from his bank unless he is able to put the money into productive investment, and his margin of profit assurea the ability to repay the loan within a reasonable time. “For the farm this reasonable time cannot be three orf six months. The farm turnover is too slow for that. A helpful and just period of farm credit for working capital must be from one to four years. “There i 3 another benefit from ac counting—the benefit of knowing whether one is going up or down. By extra sales one might be flush of money and buy heavily, thinking he is coming out ahead, but in reality he is sacrificing the future. On the other hand, one might feel pinched, and have little money to spend, but in reality he is laying up capital.” The bankers Agricultural Commis sion has suggested the following form of farm credit statement, indicating the records necessary to be kept:
