From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Accountancy or accounting is the art of communicating financial information about a business entity to users such as shareholders and managers. The communication is generally in the form of financial statements that show in money terms the economic resources under the control of management. Such financial information is primarily used by lenders, managers, investors, tax authorities, and other decision makers to make resource allocation decisions between and within companies, organizations, and public agencies. It involves the process of recording, verifying, and reporting of the value of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses in the books of account (ledger) to which debit and credit entries (recognizing transactions) are chronologically posted to record changes in value (see bookkeeping). Accounting has also been defined by the AICPA as "The art of recording, classifying, and summarizing in a significant manner and in terms of money, transactions and events which are, in part at least, of financial character, and interpreting the results thereof."

Asked by hamham - Sun Jul 29 06:49:48 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. I am currently majoring in Accounting; I chose it cus it was ranked the top major in my school. If u are good in math u will find it easy. From my personal experience, studying Acc. is fun and interesting. A lot of ppl tried to convince me to switch to another major, but I didn't. It is really satisfying to ur ego when u c urself majoring in a hard course and succeeding in it. PS. u should always practice and solve problems which is more fun than memorizing!
