Individual firms make decisions largely by intuition, and the whole industry lacks any clearly defined overall purpose. Library research reveals that the industry itself is aware of this problem; during the past five years a program of formal research has been inaugurated which has revealed the main problem as being the lack of any clear idea about the relationship of accounting information to the active management of the business, or even about the inter-relationships between the various departments within a firm. Such research has been devoted principally to the development of control concepts to provide the information necessary for specific management activities. Paradoxically, the industry is accustomed to gathering quantities of data. With no effective central controlling body and with little self-discipline, the industry has come under rigorous regulation by the I.C.C. and by the various vii state commissions. To meet these various legal demands, the industry has had to gather great quantities of informa­ tion atout its operations; such information has been used merely to fulfill these legal requirements, and has hardly been applied by management to the more effective control of business. In order to learn more about the tendencies revealed by the industry's formal research program, and to gather the information by which the"problem could be more clearly 'defined, two questionnaires were mailed to leading members of the industry, and the results were compiled. Two years of field research helped in further analyzing the problem, and suggested the lines along which concepts could be developed to provide management with proper information and the means to use it effectively. These investigations revealed that a much more detailed knowledge of operations was required--extending to the work within individual de­ partments, as well as for the whole firm. It became clear, nevertheless, that there could be no simple individual consideration of the departments; they are integrally dependent upon one, another; and though most of the profit seems to be made from such subsidiary activities as packing and crating, these could not take place without the basic operation of moving. The means by which this knowledge of operations can be gained is by the implementation of an accounting control concept of such complexity as to no longer rely on outmoded bookkeeping methods but to utilize instead the modern computer. Furthermore, the classification of this informa­ tion must conform to the management structure of the firm. Only in this way can the basic credo of modern industrial management be fulfilled: that performance should readily be measured, in detail, against the expectation of predetermined goals. With such a flow of comprehensive information the old method of management by intuition becomes unnecessary. As a result, there will be a planned program which can appeal to, and hold, the young men needed to perpetuate, expand, and improve the industry. CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Scope of Study The purposes of this study are: first, to investigate and analyze how management decisions are made in the house­ hold goods moving and storage industry; and secondly, to determine the interrelationships of the various services offered hy the industry so that its accounting systems can provide the information management needs to make the dec is ions. Three major restrictions are imposed. First, this study is concerned only with the small and middle-sized firms as .opposed to the large van lines. Secondly, the approach has been to obtain material principally from empirical research, with library research being limited to the period from 194-5 to the present. Thirdly, although the industry provides many services, the emphasis of this study is placed upon the long distance hauling function which provides the major portion of the industry's revenue. The Household Goods Moving Industry in Transportation For a period of time extending roughly from 1920 to 1950 the contributions of economic theory to the field of transportation have been 2 relatively meager. By about 1920 the problems of joint, fixed, and common cost had been treated thoroughly by Pigou,

    SECRETARY OF STATE DIVISION OF BUSINESS SERVICES FOREIGN CHARTERS 1874-1971 RECORD GROUP 281 Processed by: Ted Guillaum Archives Technical Services Tennessee State Library & Archives Date Completed: 5-24-2001 MICROFILM ONLY INTRODUCTION Record Group 281, Secretary of State, Division of Business Services, Foreign Charters, 1874-1971, contains 180 cubic feet of documents filed by corporations from out of state doing business in Tennessee. These forms were filed with the Secretary of State and are arranged numerically, however, there is also an alphabetical index. Under Tennessee statute it is the ministerial duty for The Secretary of State to file corporate documents and to maintain a record of the filings. Every foreign (non- Tennessee) corporation that intends to conduct business in Tennessee must first register their corporation with the Secretary of State. To register the foreign corporation in Tennessee, the corporation would file a copy of its charter. A charter is the legal document that establishes the corporation as a legal entity. The registration includes a principal address for the corporation and a registered agent address for service of process. This record group was microfilmed and the originals disposed of according to the Tennessee State RDA for these records. SCOPE AND CONTENT Record Group 281, Secretary of State, Division of Business Services, Foreign Charters, contains 180 cubic feet of documents spanning the years 1874 through 1971. The record group consists of reports filed by corporations headquarted outside of Tennessee. The Division of Business Services originally maintained these records in numerical order but the numerical index evidently was abandoned at some point.
