| During the 1960s and 1970s a remarkable series of books was produced by academic staff in the field of accounting at the University of Sydney.It was a period when academic research was largely analytical rather than empiricallyâ based. For the most part, the interests of academics at Sydney were largely directed at questioning the status quo â either in the way accounting or auditing was practiced, or in the conventional wisdom expressed in text books of the time.The Sydney Accounting Classics series reflects the diversity of interests of the 'Sydney school' at that time. It also recognises the tremendous impact of the foundation professor of accounting, R.J. Chambers. This reprint series ensures that the ideas developed during this period remain available to new generations of scholars and researchers.The Sydney Accounting Classics series is an intiative of the Accounting Foundation, in association with Sydney University Press.The Tangled Web of Price Variation Accounting: This book covers a wide range of topics in the area of price variation - from purchasing power, prices and inflation, to price level variations and serviceability. | ||||
