ABSTRACT

Judicial settlement, applied to an account, signifies a decree of a Suroogate’s Court whereby the account is made conclusive upon the parties to the special proceeding, and an account made therein is said to be judicially settled. With accounts kept in some systematic manner, and with vouchers taken for all payments and kept, there need be no trouble when it is necessary to prepare the account for the Surrogate. This word (Accountics) originated in the Institute of Accounts, and while not a dictionary word, is used to designate in one term accounting, the science of accounts and the art of bookkeeping. A magazine “Accountics,” its sole object is to advance the science of accounting and to secure a proper recognition of it as an element of business. It will be noticed that the reading matter pages and advertising pages of Accounticsare separately folloed, thus presenting the magazine in a form convenient for binding, with all extraneous matter omitted.
