Tiivistelmä: | This study explores the workings of an accounting technique in an established domicile of consumption: the department store. The widespread adoption of the retail inventory method by US department stores is investigated from 1920 to 1930. The analysis reveals a constellation of events situated against a backdrop of new programmatic discourses that gave rise to the adoption of the method. |
