Small Business’ Use of Internal Accountants
[ send me this essay ]
A 12 page literature review examining the value of accountants to the small business. The literature review is for use in a study of small businesses in which they will be surveyed regarding the sources of the accounting expertise they use, for the purpose of relating accounting presence and business failure. The original purpose of this literature review was to locate and discuss articles focusing on small businesses’ use and employment of accounting personnel in support of an upcoming study of that relationship and its effect on the course of development of the small enterprise. No such specific information appears to be available, however, a surprising discovery in light of the critical nature of efficient and optimal operation of business of any size. Despite the dearth of information directly related to the proposed hypotheses for the study, the information that does exist points to the need for the proposed study. Bibliography lists 19 sources.

Small Business, Banking And The Internet
[ send me this essay ]
35 pages in length. To be a pioneer in one's industry is to encourage all others to follow; however, those that ultimately start the progressive ball rolling are typically the ones that will reap the most benefits. Incorporating multiple entities with regard to Internet diversification in the banking industry can only serve to bring about a broader customer base and profit margin, as well as help to address issues relating to employee satisfaction and capital investment. It can readily be asserted that by inviting the diversity which the Internet provides, in addition to providing the funding for such ventures that otherwise would not directly benefit or interest the industry, it will serve to advance both the industry's public and private image in such a manner as to draw a more substantial clientele. The writer discusses the interrelationship among small business, banking and the Internet. Bibliography lists 38 sources.
