Accountant/ Auditor

My field of study is business I choose this article because I will probably go on accounting at university.

A Day in the Life of an Accountant/Auditor

Accountants take care of all the transactions for individual or institutional customers, they are sometimes in charge with examining the tax implications of those actions. Accountants have to be comfortable with numbers, but they also need to oversee others work. As a “financial physician”, you’ll be the person who deliver bad news and people will be less friendly with you. The hard part of the job for an auditor is the fact of those people don’t pay attention to their own numbers. A normal internal auditor spends a little part of his time on paperwork, the rest is spent on the phone, traveling to different locations or meeting meeting with executives, clients, representatives, and other divisional auditors. The lifestyle of a tax accountants is different from auditors and general accountants. Personal income tax accountants, mostly employed at small firms or self-employed, are responsible for following clients’ revenue. They are really busy in April because everybody is doing their tax. The level of satisfaction in the profession is high, but you have to like it since the school.

Paying Your Dues

Almost all industries require a bachelor's degree in accounting, finance or a related discipline. They encourage those who are good in computer science. Some candidates want to enhance their profiles by obtaining master's degree in business, accounting or finance. Most accountants want to get the title of CPA, the requirements vary from one province to another, so they must be well informed.

Present and Future

In 1494 after de publication of a book by mathematician Luca Pacioli accountinf become a “science”. In the United States, accounting grew considerably as a profession with the passage of federal legislation mandating income tax in 1913 and the excess profits tax in 1917. The future of accounting looks great for some types of accountants for example, Corporate tax advising, tax planning, internal auditing.

Quality of Life

PRESENT AND FUTURE

Most accountants and auditor beginners are monitored essentially apprenticed to the most experienced professionals in the field those cost accounts or junior internal auditors. During the first two years, many people study for their CPA exam. Nearly half of the 15 percent who leave the profession within the first two years are to gain further education in a related field.

FIVE YEARS OUT

Mobility is the most important characteristic of the profession after five years. The professionals begin to specialize in private or public accounting, and reach levels of greater responsibility. Some start their own businesses; others become internal auditors in corporate clients. Some accountants also start in related fields such as banking, financial analysis and asset management.

TEN YEARS OUT

All accountants do not follow the same paths, there are starting their own business and those who decide to work for a company. Salary increases significantly at this point for the independent practitioner who has built a considerable client base. A variety of positions related to management are available. Some accountants become independent consultants and they begin to work fewer hours and want to have more free time for themselves and their family.

3 Reasons to have your own bussiness

Add caption

There are many career choices in the world, here in Quebec the entrance to college is a very important step in the life of a student because he will have to choose a program that will determine where he wants to work later. Currently, I am studying at Ahuntsic College in a General Administration program called Business Management, this program opens the doors to the business world. At the end of your college you can go to the university to study in business and learn all about running a business. All this knowledge can allow you to create your own business, I will give you now, three reasons to have your own business.

1. The first reason

The first reasons to create your own business is freedom, the fact that you will be your own boss. You will be the owner of your time, it will be you who decides when to work and you will decide your working hours. It is you who decides when you want to take your vacation and for how long. Also every morning before working you will be happy because you know you're going to work for you, to realize your dreams.

2. The second reason

The second reasons is if you have your own business you can develop more personal skills that will serve you in achieving your business but also in everyday life. You'll have to work in all skills related to the administration which will allow to gain experience in many areas. You 'll develop your leadership, you can
choose the people with you want to work. In which sector you want to work and start building your business.

3. The third reason

The third reason is that you can make a lot of money. We know it is not easy to create a profitable business today, many business failures know because the market is very saturated. But if you have the right information and if you possess the right knowledge your company has a good chance to be successful and generate a lot of money but you have to be educated financially. Having a good income will allow you to have a good lifestyle, able to travel more often and get what you have always dreamed.

Conclusion
Finally create a company is not something easy, you have to be patient persevering and determined. It takes hard work to get what you want in life but by working hard we will have the results of our efforts.
