Manual of Accounts for Tennessee Municipalities

Proper municipal accounting is basic to efficient city administration. Hence, if good municipal government is to prevail, the accounting system must be so designed and operated as to produce the required fiscal information. For this reason the Municipal Technical Advisory Service is grateful for the opportunity to make available to municipal finance officers and other officials in Tennessee this publication, a "Manual of Accounts." The manual is the first of a series of important technical publications in this field; two others now in preparation are scheduled for publication within the coming year.
