The purpose of this paper is to examine how the demand for independent audits and the German accounting profession evolved from the late 1800s to the early 1930s despite the absence of competitive market forces. The paper posits that cultural ideologies, specifically with respect to nationalism, paternalism and anti-individualism, provide reasons for the unique configuration of not only the German corporate/banking structures responsible for originating financial reports but the accounting profession that audited them. As the German accounting profession was in an embryonic stage, it was not capable of successfully confronting the corporate/banking alliance to significantly impact financial reporting or the demand for audits. Economic crises served as the dominant pressure for business reform and legislation mandating audits in Germany.

Fluid Milk

The consumption of a number of agricultural products varies from one season of the year to another. For some products, seasonal variations in consumption correspond to variations in production. For others, such as fluid milk, consumption and production patterns tend to vary inversely, Downen [2] reported significant seasonal variations in daily average sales of fluid milk with the highest sales occurring in the fall and winter months and the lowest in the spring and summer months. Other studies [1,5] have also reported seasonal variations in per capita sales of fluid milk. Conversely, production of fluid milk naturally tends to peak in the spring and summer months and reach its lowest point in the fall and winter.

This article identifies consumer characteristics associated with preferences toward fluid milk alternatives. Using consumer survey data from Samsun province of Turkey and Multinomial Logit model, unpacked and packed fluid milk preferences were analyzed. Based on the results, 14.1% of respondents consumed only unpacked fluid milk, 58.2% consumed only packed fluid milk and 27.7% of respondents consumed both unpacked and packed fluid milk at least once a weak. Multinomial Logit model results indicated that better educated household head, higher income households, younger and female household head and people who agree with “unpacked milk is not healthy” consume more packed fluid milk than do others. Moreover, consumers who agree with statement “price of packed milk is expensive compare to unpacked milk” were less likely to consume packed fluid milk than do others.
