I have bachelors degree in accounting doing bookkeeping for a company. I’ve seen CPAs made obvious mistakes. It’s both ways but a CPA is held a higher standards.
As someone with only 2 years experience. I'm happy I'm doing most things right. The only thing I need to take from this is making sure we have multiple equity accounts for multiple partners/shareholders.
Im in my first year at a smaller cpa firm doing a mix of audit work and some tax preparation. This was good to see I seem to get quite a few returns put on my desk with negative expenses and revenue items. Also love when they have one line item called "meals and entertainement" or "Travel and entertainment" and the client has no clue how much of it was actually entertainment and how much was travel or meals or the nature of these meals to know whether its 50% or 100% deductable who the hell knows. Ive seen a $5,000+ expense under the line item "ask my accountant" and also revenue item called "reconciliation adjustment" lol. It's wild out there man.
