Accounting Career
How much math background in actually needed in an accounting career?
I’m an English major, considering changing to an accounting major. I just figured that English majors don’t really lead to any career that pays well. Everyone I know that is in accounting is wealthy, and I was wondering about the career. For example, is math really used daily (hard core math. stuff that can’t be done on a calculator)? Is it boring? etc etc. Any insight into the career would be well-appreciated.
In my experience, no, very little high-level math is done. It’s more about figuring out what accounts the numbers should go to, not what the numbers are, so to speak.
There are lots of opportunities in accounting. You could work for a firm and do corporate taxes or audits. You could work for a small local office and work with local businesses. You could work for a corporation and handle their day-to-day accounting. You could specialize in a certain area or industry. There’s lots more than most people realize.
