Applications of a high-speed electronic computer to a business-accounting problem

The use of a high-speed electronic computer is described in two systems of equipment for carrying out invoicing, customers´ accounts, stock control and wages computation for an organisation having 30,000 customers and 2,000 employees. The first system gives the more complete solution to the problems, using equipment which is not yet fully developed. The paper goes on to describe how the problems can be solved by a system using equipment commercially available at the present time.
