Burlington, Vt. 3 Hill I Cumiu ffiKunHUA; hSf ROOFING 1 I -WW- "I 'I Ratine. Metal Work. Repairing oil IM 1 I I You are in business to make money and the sole object of keeping books is that you may know whether you are making or losing money and how much. The real value of your books depends upon the information they give you.

Take the accounts receivable ledger for example: How much of your profit is locked up in the accounts receivable ledger? Do you realize that all delays and losses must be absorbed by net profit; that when an account is not collected for sixty or ninety days, it is equivalent to loaningmoney for that period without interest? It is "up to you" to collect that postponed income as soon as possible. The earlier bills and statements are rendered, the higher will be the percentage of collections. Better collections result in improved profits; the money can be used in your own instead of your customer's business; your turn-over may be increased and closer collections naturally decrease losses. Burroughs Bookkeeping machines make it possible to mail bills and statements the first of the month. The daily balance feature shows the condition each account whenever it changes and a statement of each account may be carried along with it so that at the end of, the month it is only necessary to copy the balance on the statement and it is then ready to be mailed.

"Collections don't really says one Burroughs user, "until the statements are in the customers' hands and we find that just as soon as our statements go out the money begins to come in. The value of the prompt statements and detailed knowledge of the business made possible by the Burroughs is obvious." The A of Business Adding, bookkeeping and calculating represent the three great groups of figuring operations that constitute the A of business. To handle these operations the Burroughs Adding Machine Company manufacture three types of machines in a wide variety, of styles and sizes, among which may be found a machine that will fit the needs of any business, large or small.
