It is well understood, today's living is centered more
around the business cycle than yesteryears, and requires
certainly, business techniques because living conditions
demand for the home, phases of business knowledge for
the sake of being economic, and yet living comfortably.
Facts are, the home, if operated more on a business
basis will enable the family to enjoy home life more '
because regards for the budget and planning are 1
recognized as one of the important factors concerning 1
living conditions. So, what we are saying is that the 1
housewife, the lady of the home is looked upon today as
the "BUSINESS HOUSEWIFE." :
' 1
Yes, times have changed emphatically, it is important <
to definitely plan a budget and stick with it. In this case, ,
financial records for the home are considered an <
important factor, the business housewife has more to do 4
x i _
man some years ago when she was regarded as an
individual who cooked three meals daily, did the
laundrying, mended clothes, kept the house in order, (
and of course cared for the children.
To do her job well and accurately which necessitates
vital information pertaining to income and expenditures,
she needs to have ideas aboutkeeping records, |
budgeting and planning on business basis.
Such knowledge is quite helpful too, at the time of
gathering information for income tax purposes and,
records are available for references when needed,
informing her about home progress positive or negative J
from all angles.
If the* 'business housewife^ doesn't know too much or ~
anything (as the case could be) about record keeping and
planning, she should seek available information and as
much possible, which will be a great aide in purchasing,
buying and planning for the home. Too, if she knows
phases of business records, she may find such very
valuable if she is left alone as a widow or in any case.
One may not realize too strongly how valuable a
business housewife is to the home and her family in
general, and if she manages properly, time is left for
some diversion.
The modern business housewife, can also be a
glamourous wife and mother bv eoinc about her
housework systematically. She only needs to plan her
daily chores, and keep within her budget, spending
wisely.
She can be a help to her husband, herself and family
by thinking well and living within her husband's means, and
take care that the family doesn't over-extend itself
-financially.
Taking a short Accounting course, enough to
understand record keeping -.and the ^importance of
accuracy and systematically recording for pepper
information wilCUv. the Jong ia?khft.a. profit^Tbere are
many ways to learn the planning record keeping method,
and a housewife who has not thought seriously on the
matter will do well to concentrate, and learn.
