    Model T (Edited from Wikipedia)

    Model T (Edited from Wikipedia) SUMMARY The Ford Model T (colloquially known as the Tin Lizzie, Leaping Lena, or flivver) is an automobile produced by Ford Motor Company from October 1, 1908, to May 26, 1927. It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class American; some of this was because of Ford's efficient fabrication, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting. The Ford Model T was named the most influential car of the 20th century in the 1999 Car of the Century competition, ahead of the BMC Mini, Citroën DS, and Volkswagen Type 1. Ford's Model T was successful not only because it provided inexpensive transportation on a massive scale, but also because the car signified innovation for the rising middle class and became a powerful symbol of America's age of modernization. With 16.5 million sold it stands eighth on the top ten list of most sold cars of all time as of 2012. Although automobiles had already existed for decades, they were still mostly scarce and expensive at the Model T's introduction in 1908. Positioned as reliable, easily maintained, mass-market transportation, it was a runaway success. In a matter of days after the release, 15,000 orders were placed. The first production Model T was produced on August 12, 1908 and left the factory on September 27, 1908, at the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant in Detroit, Michigan. On May 26, 1927, Henry Ford watched the 15 millionth Model T Ford roll off the assembly line at his factory in Highland Park, Michigan.

  • What Happened at Highland Park Apr 03

    What Happened at Highland Park Apr 03

    To: April 24th seminar attendees From: Dan Raff In re: Attached text In the seminar this Thursday, I intend to discuss a problem, an intriguing data source, and some preliminary findings. There is more detail on all of this in the attached text. (I hope to bring with me some illuminating photographic images as well as the figures.) I’m a little bit ahead of the text at the moment and I’m certainly not done with probing the data yet, so I will want both to present to you and to pick your brains a little. But the drift should be clear enough from what follows this note. I should perhaps add, in case it is not obvious, that the text is ultimately aimed at an audience that contains people trained in economics but is not confined to them. What Happened at Highland Park? Daniel M.G. Raff The Wharton School and National Bureau of Economic Research [email protected] This revision: April 20th, 2003 Lawrence Summers, long ago in joint work on a different project, provided the itch to which this manuscript represents a provisional scratch. The text has benefited from presentations to the Penn Economic History Forum, the Development of the American Economy and Industrial Technology and Productivity groups at NBER, and the annual meetings of the Economic History Association. I learned a great deal form these audiences and had particularly helpful comments and advice from Ned Bowman, Lance Davis, Therese Flaherty, Claudia Goldin, Zvi Griliches, Margaret Levenstein, Tom Sugrue, and Robert Zevin. Charles Christianson and Sam Parker provided expert advice on a subtle accounting matter that proved to be of foundational importance.
  • History of Ford Motor Company

    History of Ford Motor Company

    History of Ford Motor Company Henry Ford (ca. 1919) Ford Motor Company is an American automaker and the world's fifth largest automaker based on worldwide vehicle sales. Based in Dearborn, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit, the automaker was founded by Henry Ford, on June 16, 1903. Ford Motor Company would go on to become one of the largest and most profitable companies in the world, as well as being one of the few to survive the Great Depression. The largest family-controlled company in the world, the Ford Motor Company has been in continuous family control for over 110 years. Ford now encompasses two brands: Ford and Lincoln. Ford once owned 5 other luxury brands, they were Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar, Aston Martin and Mercury. But over time those brands were sold to other companies and Mercury was discontinued. The Founding of Ford Motor Company Henry Ford's initial foray into automobile manufacturing was the Detroit Automobile Company, founded in 1899. The company floundered, and in 1901 was reorganized as the Henry Ford Company. In March 1902, after falling out with his financial backers, Ford left the company with the rights to his name and 900 dollars. Henry Ford himself turned to an acquaintance, coal dealer Alexander Y. Malcomson, to help finance another automobile company. Malcomson put up the money to start the partnership "Ford and Malcomson" and the pair designed a car and began ordering parts. However, by February 1903, Ford and Malcomson had gone through more money than expected, and the manufacturing firm ofJohn and Horace Dodge, who had made parts for Ford and Malcomson, was demanding payment.[1]Malcomson, constrained by his coal business demands, turned to his uncle John S.

Dodge died in January 1920, his will provided for the establishment of a trust managed by the Detroit Trust Company in Detroit, Michigan. In 1919, just the year before, John Dodge, his brother Horace Dodge, James Couzens, and the other minority shareholders in the Ford Motor Company (FMC) were approached about selling their FMC stock. Before the Dodge brothers would sell their shares, they wanted to know what the Federal income taxes would be on the proceeds. The Commissioner of the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) did a study of FMC and concluded that the value that should be assigned to a share of FMC stock as of March 1, 1913 was $9,489.34.

March 26, 2012 Program Schedule and Presenter Abstracts Graduate Research Fair 2012 Welcome to our annual celebration of graduate student scholarly and creative work. Students share oral and poster presentations of theses, dissertations, capstone/final projects, unique internship experiences, and other scholarly course projects. This year there are 217 presentations: 149 oral and 68 poster presentations. This involves 245 students and more than 90 faculty mentors. Presentations include all five colleges and 28 academic departments and schools. As the event enters its 14th year, its reputation and faculty support has grown. The research and scholarly work has matured. Students feel comfortable presenting in multiple years. Team/collaborative projects are more readily shared. Many students use this as a stepping-stone to local, state, national, and international scholarly presentations, of which we are very proud. Thank you for taking the time to view the posters, listen to oral presentations, and network with one another over these student achievements.
