A register of expenses (and some incomes) concerning the Finnish estates of Anna Clemetsdotter Hogenskild. For each year, a variety of expenses pertaining to the estates of Nynäs, Vik, Kyllelä, and Lahis are registered. These include consumption of food, wages, miscellaneous expenses, etc. Some incomes have also been included.

Two loose bifolia (1–34 and 32–33) seem out of place and perhaps belong to some other manuscript, probably a tenant register.

By folio:

Fol. 1r: sums, 1551–1553 (tenant register?) (fols. 1v–2r are blank).

Fols. 2v–11v: 1551, income and expenditure (fols. 12r–13r are blank).

Fols. 13v–21v: 1552, income and expenditure (fol. 22r is blank).

Fols. 22v–31v: 1553, income and expenditure.

Fols. 32r–33v: sums, 1551 (tenant register?) (fol. 34r–v is blank).

 Paper 34 folios. 15,5 20,5 Text area varies. Foliation in pencil in the upper right-hand corner. I(VI13 + IV21 + V31 + I33)34 One bifolium enclosing three quires and a single bifolium. In good condition. Text in a single column, not ruled.

One hand typical of mid-16th-century Swedish cameral records. Brown ink.

No decoration.

The three quires are sewn through their centrefolds and then together. The two bifolia (fols. 1 and 34; 32 and 33) are loose.

A register of income and expenditure with a few loose folios that have perhaps been wrongly placed here when attempting to reconstruct the manuscript. Part of a large block of records from the mid-16th century pertaining to the estates of Nynäs, Vik, Kyllelä, and Lahis.

The financial records of Nynäs and related estates came to the Swedish Crown, and later the Swedish National Archives, when the possessions and archives of Hogenskild Bielke were confiscated following his execution in 1605 (see Introduction to these descriptions).
