Book-Keeping, by Single Entry, shou's clearly the state of accounts with
individuals dealing on credit, but does not exhibit the true state of his af-
fairs to the book keeper himself. If, therefore, he wishes to know his profits
or losses by his business, he must take an inventory of his stock on hand,
balances ou book and ready money, and this inventory compared with that,
taken at the commencement of business, wilt show the gain or loss by trade.
