The Rules of Acquisition were written by Gint, the first Grand Nagus of the Ferengi people. According to a dream Quark had (which may or may not have been accurate), calling them "rules" was a marketing ploy, as nobody would buy a book entitled The Suggestions of Acquisition. Also in this dream, Gint made reference to Rule #239, implying that at least that many had been written by Gint. (DS9 episode: "Body Parts") According to some sources the rules were written out of order, and Gint only wrote Rule #162 (DS9 references: The Ferengi Rules of Acquisition, Legends of the Ferengi)

abstract	The Rules of Acquisition were written by Gint, the first Grand Nagus of the Ferengi people. According to a dream Quark had (which may or may not have been accurate), calling them "rules" was a marketing ploy, as nobody would buy a book entitled The Suggestions of Acquisition. Also in this dream, Gint made reference to Rule #239, implying that at least that many had been written by Gint. (DS9 episode: "Body Parts") According to some sources the rules were written out of order, and Gint only wrote Rule #162 (DS9 references: The Ferengi Rules of Acquisition, Legends of the Ferengi) In 2151, Krem stated that there were 173 Rules of Acquisition. This implies that the rules were not all created at once, and have been added to over the centuries. (ENT episode: "Acquisition") By 2370, at the latest, all 285 rules had been written. (DS9 episode: "Rules of Acquisition") In 2371, Grand Nagus Zek re-wrote the Rules of Acquisition, giving them a more altruistic spin, after an experience with a Bajoran orb. The new rules were entitled The Rules of Acquisition, Revised for the Modern Ferengi. However, these revised rules were never published, and were only revealed to Quark and Rom on Deep Space 9. (DS9 episode: "Prophet Motive") As part of the reform of Ferengi society instituted by Zek, the Rules of Acquisition were no longer taught to children. (DS9 episode: "The Dogs of War")
