Hardcover. Zustand: Good. First. From Wikipoedia: The Royal Mail Case or R v Kylsant & Otrs was a noted English criminal case in 1931. The director of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, Lord Kylsant, had falsified a trading prospectus with the aid of the company accountant to make it look as if the company was profitable and t…o entice potential investors. Following an independent audit instigated by HM Treasury, Kylsant and Harold John Morland, the company auditor, were arrested and charged with falsifying both the trading prospectus and company records and accounts.[1] Although they were acquitted of falsifying records and accounts, Kylsant was found guilty of falsifying the trading prospectus and sentenced to twelve months in prison. The company was then liquidated, and reconstituted as The Royal Mail Lines Ltd with the backing of the British government. As well as its immediate impact, the case instigated massive changes in the way companies were audited. In 1947, the Companies Act was passed, criminalizing the failure to disclose the use of secret reserve accounts. The case highlighted flaws in the way company accounts were reviewed, and "probably had a greater impact on the quality of published data than all the Companies Acts passed up to that date". The case "fell like an atomic bomb and profoundly disturbed both the industrial and the accountancy worlds", and has also been linked to reduced public trust of big businesses. The case is also seen as the reason for the demise of accounting with the aid of secret reserves. This copy is good in black cloth with gilt titles on the spine. Ex-library, with typical library stamps and labels. Binding is sound. The covers show very light wear. Other than the library indications, the text is quite clean and unmarked. . FO22.

An exceptional example; corners sharp with an overall tight, bright and clean impression. Still in the publisher's cardboard packaging. ;… 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 276 pages; Physical desc.: xliii, 276 p., [5] leaves of plates : ill. ; 24 cm. Subjects: Kyslant, Owen Cosby Philipps, Baron, 1863-1937. Morland, Harold John. Royal Mail Steam Packet Company. Trials (Fraud) - England - London. Notes: "This special edition of . has been privately printed for the members of the Notable Trials Library."; orginally printed: Edinburgh & London: William Hodge & co., 1933. Summary: THE ROYAL MAIL CASE gathers documents from England during the Great Depression to recount an offense that "struck deep at the roots of investment confidence and menaced the whole stability of commercial financial practice," as stated in the book's Introduction.The book presents the well-regarded chairman of a great corporation, Lord Kylsant, who went to prison for his part in the affair, and the accountant who issued statements that told far from the whole truth about the soundness of the enterprise, the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company. To attract new investors, the company had issued a prospectus containing profit and loss accounts that concealed while not misstating its current position. When Royal Mail went under, its shareholders were left empty-handed. In his Introduction to the volume, Collin Brooks, an expert in explaining the world of finance to laypersons, deftly limns the ins and outs of the Royal Mail case. Professor Alan M. Dershowitz, in the Introduction he has written exclusively for the Notable Trials Library, remarks on similarities to present-day corporate malfeasance in the United States. Both writers call attention to the potential for conflict when auditors, who are meant to be watchdogs for shareholders--that is, the public--are beholden to corporations for their fees. 3 Kg.
