		<description><![CDATA[The subject of this work has presented difficulties of a complicated character, from the various phases under which the peculiar defects of individual societies appear. The task has, however, been lightened by the rejection, that, although it cannot be expected that this effort, to place them upon a more rational and secure footing, will meet with the success of wholly obviating errors for the future, yet a most important end will at once be obtained, if the attention of the Patrons, Trustees, Directors and other officers of many of these institutions, be awakened to the sense of the grave moral responsibility incurred by them, in allowing their names to be connected with schemes, which, while professing to benefit, do but cause injury to those, for whose good they were designed, to individuals not of equal information and position with themselves, from a class remarkable for the simple faith with which they believe in any statement, that is sanctioned by the countenance of their superiors.

		<description><![CDATA[The enormous and increasing values and profits represented by American business corporations have attracted general attention to corporate activities. The problem of corporation regulation is perhaps the leading issue of the day. Each of the leading political parties is committed to programs of corporation control, particularly in the field of public-service corporations. Many laws have been passed to supervise the activities of corporations, to control the administration of corporate income and expenses, and to limit capitalization. One of the most important elements of our economic life, the business corporation, is being taken under the direct supervision of the Government. As yet, however, this control, regulation, and direction has proceeded with only a partial understanding on the part of legislators and administrators of the constitution and operations of the institution with which they are dealing. The best and most recent evidence of the inadequacy of knowledge upon the subject of the financial methods of corporations is the authorization by Congress of a commission to inquire into the circumstances connected with the issue of securities by American railroad companies. It is the task and duty of the American college and university to do its part in disseminating among our people, through the [...]

		<description><![CDATA[THE four article in this volume were published in the Quarterly Journal of Economics for May 1900, February, August and November 1010. Only the first of them has been subjected to any very considerable revision. Matters which are considered more in d( tail in the subsequent papers have been omitted, corrections and additions have been made, and the tone rather than the substance has been modified. Convinced that a central bank patterned after those of Europe would not fit into our system, I drew the unqualified conclusion that a central bank would not prove a remedy for our financial ills. Further reflection led to the proposal of a central bank of limited scope which is brought forward in the final chapter. Without much change in substance the phraseology of the first paper has been modified in many places so as to make evident that its arguments apply only to central banks of the European type exercising influence primarily through their lending operations and discount policy.

		<description><![CDATA[WHEN Morris took office, he had eager hopes of loans from Spain. In July, 1781, he wrote a long letter to Jay to stimulate him to apply for such loan, and to provide him with arguments by which he might persuade the Spanish Minister. He proposed that the United States should help Spain to conquer Florida, the Bahamas, and perhaps Jamaica. Then he suggested that Nova Scotia might be conquered, thus depriving Great Britain of ship timber, and obtaining a cheap supply of it for Spain. This would destroy the fisheries of Great Britain, on which she relied as a &#8221; nursery for seamen.&#8221; England could be driven out of the Gulf of Mexico, and Spain could open a port in East Florida for trade with the United States. He wanted a loan of five million dollars. If more could be got, more could be done. The United States &#8221; do not mean to beg gratuities, but to make rational requests.&#8221; The Financier and the In a republic, time is sure to be lost before a revenue can be established. He cannot even reform the expenditure without money, because he cannot make contracts, and the people resent taxes while they [...]

		<description><![CDATA[PREFACE THIS book contains a biography of ROBERT MORRIS and a financial history of the period of the American Revolution. Neither of these subjects has heretofore been made the object of thorough investigation. Early in this century, two biographies of Morris were written, one by Mease, the other by Wain; and numerous short sketches of his career have since been published which simply repeat the contents of those two. The financial history of the Revolution is very obscure. The most important records of. the financial administration between 1775 and 1781 are lost. The finances of the Continental Congress had no proper boundary. In one point of view, they seem never to have had any finances ; in another, the whole administration was financial. Neither branch of the subject can be considered as exhaustively treated in the present work. In the &#8221; Inventory of Articles found in possession of Robert Morris, in his room, debtors&#8217; apartment, Saturday, August 1st, 1801,&#8221; which is printed with the Account of his Property, is an enumeration showing that he had an enormous mass of papers, letters, account-books, etc., covering his life and business from 1775 to 1800. There were twenty-five letter books. These books and [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Abstract This paper uses arbitrage arguments to show that the present value of riskless cash flows is determined by discounting them at the after-tax discount rate. Present value formulas are derived for riskless cash flows in three cases: (i) uniform interest and tax rates; (ii) certain, but not uniform interest and tax rates; and (iii) uncertain interest rates. The relation between the after-tax discount rate approach and the adjusted present value approach is also explored.

		<description><![CDATA[PREFACE This book, as its name indicates, is concerned with the every-day financial problems of the private business concern. The point of view taken throughout is that of an organizer or financial manager of an enterprise. While the book deals primarily with business conditions and financial practice in the United States, it includes many references also to the experience and practice of other countries which may yield suggestions of value to American business men. Many social and economic questions are necessarily touched upon incidentally. These questions, however, in the author&#8217;s judgment, belong to a separate field of study; no attempt is made, therefore, to discuss them at any length. The subject matter of the book falls naturally into five distinct parts : Part I begins with a brief exposition of the essential principles of all sound financing; it is devoted for the most part to a description of the different forms of financial organization of business enterprises, taking up in turn the individual proprietorship, the firm or partnership, and the corporation. Part II discusses the various forms of security issues and the manner in which they may be combined and organized as determined by the basis of capitalization of the [...]
