- If you're going to make money in your business, you're going to need an accountant, but which kind? There are so many, sometimes it's hard to find the right solution.
If you decide to hire your accountant in-house, this video should help you plan your next steps. If, on the other hand, you want to outsource your accounting work, check out www.ignitespot.com (shameless plug) and we can get you into accounting shape.
I am a CPA. Never, never turn down bookkeeping work. Never. And demand top dollar for it. Always promote the benefits to your client to having a CPA do the bookkeeping and tax work for the sake of accuracy and monthly tax planning. If you wean your clients while marketing, and can achieve 50 clients at $500 a monthly plus Management Advisory Services, tax planning and tax fulfillment, you can make well over $400K a year.
Do you have any tips for people studying accounting? Like how to get their foot in the door.
Yes, pass the CPA exam and you will make a helluva lot more with those 3 initials
Thanks! Do you have a social media I can follow?
Book keeping is a old school process with machine learning and AI book keeping
Salaries are way off unless this was made in 1997, not 2017.
I'm a controller and make $105k annually. I don't know any controllers in my industry who make under $85k a year
Most mid-level accountants/financial analysts also typically make from $60k-$75k a year.
Thanks for the info. I'm currently entering accounting classes for a career change but didn't like the numbers this guy was stating. I currently make 60k but with no advancement in sight. I figured accounting would have a better outlook as far as pay scale.
Seth Ford Thank god, im going into uni and about to do an accounting and finance bsc. I was quite dissapointed in the salary range, though thankfully its good that you earn much more.
Seth Ford How long did it take you to get to where you are??
I think using minimal figures gives people a negative but realistic outlook on their career path. I only make $18k a year working part time at UPS, so making 45k is a huge step in the right direction for me in terms of making more money. But if I can become CFO (although that is surreal) then I could potentially make $700K+compensation. Unfortunately, what I learned in this cruel reality; don't expect your employer to pay you what you think what you are worth, especially if you have a family to take of. But that does not mean the fight is over. Always plan for the worst and be happy doing it.
Hi Seth, are you currently living in the States?
Five Types:
1. Bookkeeper
2. Accountant
3. Controller
4.CFO
5. CPA
He said that Bookkeepers and Accountants are not the same thing.
He said this on the context that most people see no difference between the two.
Because Accountants can do Bookkeeping too.
Basically, Accountants are on a much high tier than Bookkeepers.
Great video, I was very impressed with work.check our youtube video ua-cam.com/video/8SqU7rck7IY/v-deo.html
uh-uh CPA goes after accountant. CPA s are not auditors (in the sense he was making) CPA is very overwhelming title , garnered , but "hyped' I guess is what I'm saying . Solid but hyped
Certified Party Animal but I keep timing out.
I know this is just content but these salaries are off. There are a few positions he left out as well. Just remember location makes a big difference. An Accountant/Staff Accountant is pretty (entry level) and is usually $45-65K. A Senior Accountant/Accounting Supervisor (mid-level/entry level management) is typically $60-80K. An Accounting Manager/Finance manager/Assistant Controller (mid-level management) is somewhere in the $80-100K range. A Controller (Senior-level management)can be $85-125K and CFO (Executive-level management) $100-250K. Which title you hold depends on the industry, location and whether the company is publicly traded mat matter as well. Most people who have CPA's or MBA's can be any of these but they are usually after the entry level titles. Auditors are not even the same thing. They don't even deal with anything other than reviewing the information after the fact. They are mostly theory, no practical application. I hope this doesn't come across as negative but I have been around for about 12 years and I started form the bottom and I also analyze payroll so I get to see everyone's pay.
M S any recommendations based for majoring?
I am trying to build business in fitness and I wanted to know what are the challenges of being in good shape when having a profession in accounting?
GREAT overview! Plan on using in my Financial Accounting class this fall as an introduction to the profession!! I can talk about it until I am blue in the face. Having come from the Big 8 (now Big 4) and starting a number of businesses I have lots of experiences to share. But you, the "expert", defined as being over 50 miles away and presenting intelligent content, will help inspire my students. Thank YOU!!!
CFO STARTS from 200k. Not 75k. And accountant with 3 years of experience can make more than 75k now a days.
Really eye opening video.
Thank you John C. Brose.
Just because you are so very thoughtful.
This is a great video with valuable content. Thank you.
I appreciate how you explained this topic, Eddy.
I’m in college right now working on becoming a CFO and this boosted my confidence as I know I’m someone who views everything and takes look into minor details as well as major details and planning out things would really fit me as a person

THANK YOU FOR SHARING
I need some help to clear my doubts on Basic accounting like Bank Reconciliation statement, Suspense account, Fictitious asset, Accumulated depreciation, Bad debts, Provision for doubtful debts, Accounting ratios, Accrual entries, Concepts or principle of accounting, VAT calculation, cost and revenue, cash flow statement, Unearned revenue or deferred revenue, Contingent liabilities.
Thank you.,
If you have an ACCA certification, where do you stand?
I want to become an accountant even more now
Aleo same
Get your bsc in accounting then get required credits and get your acca or cpa designation. Get your per and get you licence from your accounting state board. It sounds long and hard but its really and enjoyable and it will pay off.
Just start with Acca, it gives you basic foundation

Don't chose your career as an accountancy, not a easy job at all
Where did the salary figures come from? Sounds like earnings from my grandpa's days.
Here is industry accounting salary in Australia(Sydney and Melbourne) as at 2022, and based on your experience you can expect to earn within the range given below.
Bookkeeper salary range is $40k-55k (minimum hold certification in bookkeeping )
Junior accounts staff salary range: $50k-60k (hold certificate IV or diploma in accounting and mostly experience)
Accountant salary range: $60k-70k (bachelor's degree in commerce/business and majoring in accounting)
Senior accountant salary range:$70k-80k (minimum 3 years work experience)
Accounts payable/receivable team leader: $70k-90K (depends if teams get too large then this roles is created)
General Accounts Manager: $80k-105k (salary depends if studying towards completing CPA/CA or has already completed, the size of the organization and yrs as a manager)
Senior manager/financial director: $100k-125k (based on the size of the company and growth)
Assistant Controller: $125k-150k ( depends on the company size and the performance of a company in comparison to pervious year)
Controller: $150k-$400k (based on company size and annual company growth)
CFO role is completely different from Controller thus it is hard to become one as a controller. The most effective route is through FP&A.
Most of the CFOs in AU earn within $250k to $800k but in a well established company or top 500 fortune companies it can go up to $4million.
These are helpful. I'd like to see more about how to book keep for a small business. Sometimes I'm struggling to know if I'm doing things right or making stuff up. lol help please
Great video I'm in school and I'm gaining knowledge from UA-cam
+Dwan Gremillion glad it helped!
You have commerce
Any update on your career?
What about CMA?
A few or so Third Party Management systems that i have been threw, so here we are today. 101
You are great!
Back in the day and age of older styles of life and what ever it meant to some and other's whom knows.
Great content and presentation
What about someone that can do the job of a controller but isn't a certified accountant... how much can they make?
After watching this video my main question would be, do I need to hire a firm to do CPA and controller work? Is it common practice for a CPA to handle the controller work as well?
A CPA can do both, however, you may be paying a high hourly price for your controller work. If you're a large enterprise or considering going public, then it would make sense. Otherwise, you could get someone without a CPA license to act as your controller as long as they have a strong education and several years of experience in the role.
Signing Authority for RBC in Dryden Ontario? Is this really true or was it really true? Well, yes it was absolutely correct.
What does a junior accountant/bachelor's degree in accountancy earn?
Where does management, cost and corporate accountant fits?
Number 2, scaled based on the size and type of entity ie. government.
as a person without any finance or business background I didn't really understand this. I think if you used real life examples like 'a fashion brand hires an accountant to do xyz, this is how it helps them'
I have a bachelor degree in accounting. As a fresh graduate, should i apply for bookkeeper position first, or i can straight away apply to accountant position. Which is a more proper way to start my career with no working experience.
How about being an auditor? i heard we can learn and expose with many things, even the seniors can handle the whole financial statements, which is not an easy thing to get if we work with commercial companies?
Better to get the experience as auditor first.
You can try to go straight for an accountant position but most require some type of experience.
You should be applying to staff accountant ads.
Hey Zoel how is your career going? I aspire to do the same and get my bachelors degree in accounting
What do actuaries do to liven up their office party? Invite an accountant.
When does a person decide to become an accountant? When he realises he doesn't have the charisma to succeed as an undertaker.
Hello sir.. Can introvert person become an accountant.. 🤔🤔
Cost accounting?
hey man where is cma?
Sir I'm interested to doing accounting job.what to do
How about Icaew(ACA) or CIMA???? Pls if info grew tfiul to u???
Do accountants need to go out and meet the clients?
It depends what kind of accounting you are doing and where you are working. If you work in private accounting as a staff accountant, you don’t have to travel to meet clients as you just work for one company. If you work in public accounting, you don’t go out and meet clients very often if you do tax while you will go out and meet clients very often if you do audit.
When introverts want to Accountant 😅
the job for the process that oversees the whole accounting system is called the?
Internet
The best = ACCA & ICAEW
can i be an account for my own business, if i'm certified of course?
Yes you can and you can make a ton of money if you are a good salesman, and delegate the minor work so you are freed up to go out and sell more.
The sad thing is that CPAs don't know the basics of bookkeeping;. hence, they almost always mess up an accounting system
really I don't know that before
I have seen it many times!
It's not wrong. It's necessary to fix the problems of bookkeeping. Ie. adjusting entries to realign with generally accepted accounting principles. It's often more work to reverse entries etc. to fix the issues and in the long run this will cost the business more money for CPA hours.
Ain't no segregation of duties in small companies lol, in a small company. Hire a CPA, they will do your accounting and projections and keep you up to date on FASB.
How can i became accountant while studying Bed degree at Ukzn, Please help i want a B com Accounting
Siwe Mzobe well for starters, becoming proficient at English will help.
Did proper English like the last comment make you an accountant Siwe Mzobe?
Doing my bachelors degree in accounting at the moment, I’m half way done and have a pretty good gpa (3.8) but I’m scared I’ll be a bad accountant. It’s not because you have good grades that you’re good at what you do... especially since I basically learn most of the practice numbers by heart... way too much information to know in such little time... I just hope I don’t end up sucking :/
Holding in there, i didn’t land myself a internship for this summer though. So I guess I’ll find out if I suck there haha
@@meganb731 Hang in there bud🍀 there may be better opportunities waiting for you😉
I just finished my accounting degree and barely made upper 2nd class honors, is find myself leaning more to forensic accounting though
Internship will help with that. Bust your butt and grow with that company. They could (possibly) pay for your Masters and CPA.
I think you're just having anxiety about it.
music is distracting
In Russia it is all done by one person🤭
Is it Putin?
This is ridiculous. Financial Controller must be a qualified accountant with atleast 3-5+ post qualification experience and not a bachelor or masters degree holder.
This information is just funny.
30-60k for an accountant. lmao maybe a jr in college
Why not indian chartered accountants
because this is an American video, I'm assuming.
ACCA is based in UK and CPA is based in USA
SAIPA
This is outdated information even for 2017. Bookkeepers, are more than ever before, technology specialists. And not all bookkeepers are created equal.
Salaries are wrong
lol
This is not accurate
best tipp is to outsource those guys and pay like a fraction of what they might cost. praise the 3rd world countries hahahah
Very wrong information.
CIMA
Under the last of the 5 types of accountants he describes CPA's as the TAX "GUY". You must be kidding. In this day ? I've been a consultant for 45 years, the first 5 I spent the whole month of November every year attending the AICPA TAX INSTITUTE at the Waldorf in NYC. I am 76 now, retired, and back when I was in my 30's, 1,000 CPAs attended, 999 Male and me. Yes, I was the one and only female attending. Today, the best CPA's are female in my opinion. Shame on this speaker. Really an ignorant person.
