Earning
An Accounting Degree
Accounting
is concerned with the provision, interpretation, and application
of financial and other economic information essential to the efficient
conduct and evaluation of an organization's activities.
It
includes a study of data processing and reporting methods, and
of the many related measurement and conceptual problems such as
how to assess and report the effects of inflation on the organization's
earnings and financial status.
Because decisions
made by various users are partly based on accounting information,
accounting has to adapt to changing business and social needs.
In order that the professional accountant be able to meet and/or
initiate change, his or her education must therefore extend beyond
a mastery of techniques and practices to include a study of their
conceptual foundations, rationale, and limitations; and must include
an examination of alternative accounting models.
