Abstract

A lo largo de su historia centenaria la sociedad de Tranvías Eléctricos de Granada ha mantenido una clara estabilidad en la estructura de las cuentas anuales que año tras año presentó al mercado. Entre 1904 y 1972, dicha continuidad sólo se vio afectada por un par de etapas de cambio técnico-contable que coinciden con significativos cambios en la estrategia y en la estructura de la Sociedad. El estudio a largo plazo de dichas series proporciona una interesante vía de penetración en la historia del sector así como en el estudio de las prácticas contables aplicadas por una Sociedad que se llegó a contar entre las más importantes del sector en España. Year after year, throughout its centennial history, the Tranvías Eléctricos de Granada Co. has maintained clear stability in the balance sheets it has presented to the market. Between 1904 and 1972, this continuity was only interrupted on two occasions, both coincident with significant changes in the society's strategy and structure.The long term analysis of this serial history provides an interesting insight into the study of the tram sector and, in particular, into the real accountancy practices applied by a Society which came to be one of the most important tram companies in Spain.
