Specialist Notes

Researched and interesting treatise complete with all its parts; in addition to the main rules of mercantile accounting, which had received considerable treatment since the 15th century, it is a work of important mercantile technique, above all because it was written by a very cultured and expert businessman. The most varied information is found there, from correspondence formulas to examples of double-entry entries, with a lively practical spirit dictated by experience.
