Зачатки учёта практиковались во всех цивилизациях ирригационного типа.	Record-keeping has been practiced in all civilizations since the dawn of agriculture.
Первые известные примеры такого рода — глиняные таблички периода Вавилонского царства.	The first examples of this were clay tablets from the period of the Kingdom of Babylon.
К такому же типу примитивного учета относятся, например кипу — система узелковой письменности инков.	The same type of primitive record-keeping includes Kipu, the nodular writing system of the Inca.
Вести бухгалтерский учет начинали уже в Средневековье, а именно:	Chronicles of accounting began in the Middle Ages. Precisely:
476 г. — начало Средневековья.	the year 476, the beginning of the Middle Ages.
Традиции римской бухгалтерии продолжали сохраняться.	The traditions of Roman accounting continued to be maintained.
Росту точности и юридической обоснованности учетных записей способствовала концепция римского права и возникновение торгового (хозяйственного) права.	The concept of Roman law and the emergence of commercial (business) law led to greater accuracy and legal grounding in official records.
Во втором тысячелетии купцами стали создаваться посреднические суды.	In the second millennium, merchants began to found arbitration courts.
Они вырабатывали определенные требования к записям: хронологический порядок записей, отсутствие пропусков в бухгалтерских книгах между записями, каждая операция подтверждается документально и т. д.	They developed specific requirements for records: a chronological order of records, the absence of blank spaces in accounting books between records, the documentary confirmation of each transaction, etc.
В эпоху средневековья формируются два основных направления учета: камеральная и простая бухгалтерия.	During the Middle Ages, two branches of record-keeping were developed: budgetary and simple accounting.
Камеральная исходила из того, что основным объектом учета признавалась касса, ожидаемые поступления, а также выплаты из нее.	Budgetary accounting was based upon the idea that the main goal of record-keeping concerned the payments desk, with the expected inward and outward payments.
Регистрации подлежали все поступления и выплаты денежных средств, а доходы и расходы устанавливались заранее.	All incoming and outgoing money needed to be registered, and income and expenditure was established beforehand.
Простая бухгалтерия предполагала учёт имущества, включая кассу, а доходы и расходы становились для бухгалтера искомыми.	Simple accounting assumed a record of property, including a payment desk, but income and expenditure remained unknown to the accountant.
Все имущественные счета велись по принципу дебет — кредит, но в информационную учётную систему еще не включались счета собственных средств.	All property accounts were carried out according to the principle of debit-credit, but accounts of personal money were not included in the information record system.
