Under straight line method,\nAnnual Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage Value)/Life time\nHere \nAnnual Depreciation = (30,000 - 2,000)/4\n                    = 28,000/4\n                    = $ 7,000 \n\n\nhttp://www.futureaccountant.com/\nhttp://www.schoolingkids.com/

Accounting tends to be one of those subjects that you either get it or your don't.  The best advice is to keep practicing the t-table exercises until you find that "A-HA!" threshold.\n\nHere are some basics.\n\nIncome Statement\nNet Sales\n - Cost of goods sold\n   (Labor, Materials, Overhead, Delivery, etc.)\n= Gross Margin\n - Selling, General & Administrative expenses\n= Operating Profit\n - Interest\n= Profit before taxes\n\n\n\nBalance Sheet\nAssets\n Cash\n Investments\n A/R\n Inventories\n PP&E\n\nLiabilities\n A/P\n Long-term debt\n Other liabilities\n Reserves\n\nShareholder's equity\n Common stock\n Retained earnings

not me, but how about we take courses at the same time.  I was wanting either:  Medical office assistant, Medical Administrative assistant, or just administrative assistant.  I got the pamphlet from Saskatoon Business College.  These are the only ones that I am interested in that they offer my other choices are:   Legal Admin Assistant, Accounting, Computer accounting technician, info tech specialist, business admin, financial services assistant.  Don't worry, I won't take the medical office assistant one if you don't want me to, dork.  I am not going to copy you.  Even if I did take it, it wouldn't be because I am copying, Amber!  I just need to further my education and that one has the least amount of math in the course.  I just want a steady income that involves as little math as possible!

I believe your best option is to obtain your bachelors degree in accounting/finance.  Inherently, this is a more attractive degree due to the amount of education obtained.  Furthermore, any respectable company will require a bachelors degree for a financial analyst position.\n\nWhile the other two options are not bad, they will not help you greatly so I would do them only if it is in addition to the second bachelors degree.  Passing the CPA exam without the work experience will not obtain you your certification, which is the true "resume value" so you would have only passed a test and would have an interest dinner conversation piece at best.\n\nThe masters degree in accounting is also nice as a supplement to your bachelors degree, but entirely unnecessary.  Most firms/corporations you talk with are not interested in a graduate degree unless it is specifically applicable to the position, which for a financial analyst position it is not.  \n\nThose are just my thoughts.. :-)

Most of today's accounting is theoretical and legal. Yes, you will have to have a basic understanding of mathematics and in college you will likely have to complete two semester of undergraduate business calculus. But in your day-to-day work you will utilize basic math and algebra as another user stated. Where the average accountants are separated from the good ones are how they interpret the results of their math and how they apply it to the laws and standards set forth by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), Security and Exchange Commission (SEC), the US Government, just to name a few. This is the part of your accounting curriculum where you will need to focus the bulk of your energies and in most universities where the schools try to weed people out. So don't ever count yourself out and don't ever discount study groups and tutoring. Chase your dreams.

You don't have to do all of those if you don't want to.  What's going to matter to the company that hires you is your ability to pass the exams, but you don't have to take the first couple exams in any particular order, and if you can pass one before you start job hunting, you'll pretty much be set.  Therefore, I recommend majoring in either Math (with heavy emphasis on Statistics) or Finance.  It certainly won't hurt to take as many classes as you can from both - and some classes in Business or Economics wouldn't hurt either.  I personally don't think the Accounting classes are overly crucial.  Good luck!

Sounds like textbook propaganda...  you're supposed to regurgitate the mush in paraphrased form straight from the text, right?\n\nFinance by \n1-borrowing (from individuals, other companies, banks, the gov, or foreign countries) (by issuing bonds, notes, etc)\n2-increasing investment (by issuing more stock, takin on additional partners, or depositing your own money into your business account)\n\nGoals and functions... yeah really bad wording.  I hate questions like this.  Some moron wrote your school book, I'd have to say.  Look, just scour your text for a straight up definition for finance and copy it word for word.  Then see if "goals and functions" are included in that definition, if not, then you might find it in that section of the text.  \n\nObviously you want to have money so that you can do business.  You also want that money managed well - as you want all of your accounts managed well ...  God I hate questions like that.  \n\nLook - business finance isn't in my dictionary of accounting terms.  It's however the idiot author wants to define it.  I'd have to say that "business finance" isn't used in your book to describe finance operations, like I talked about above... \n\nman I'm sorry I gotta quit this I'm too irritated...

it's my minor hehhehee\n\nyou should contact any local schools and ask them for more information, of-course they going tell great stuff :).. \nyou need to do i get a ideal of what class you will be taking for the major, so look on all the require class and such. If you think u can learn them or able to learn them then you go around and find school that meets your time and budget.\n\n if you going for a full-time student going a university is better than 2year school but 2 years offer class that works around your job so that why half time continuing eduction students takes it. \n\nwhat you have to focus is in these area:\n-Economics\n-accountant\n-Managment (usally know more of a Information technology version which means that most of the stuff will be handle in computers)\n-Database\n-A little knowledge in computer programing.\n\nMy sister is also thinking going to school and she thinking about Business Management or Management Infromation Systems

It depends on your thinking processes.  Although, they are closely related and complementary in knowledge they are quite different.  \n\nAccounting is very mechanical.  There are lots of rules.  Many of them have to be remembered by heart.  Meaning they are difficult to reason your way back into them.  In other words, accounting logic can be somewhat counter-intuitive. \n\nFinance is often viewed as more complicated.  But, with some efforts you can reach a certain finance common sense.  The logic is more intuitive and easier to replicate. \n\nWhen I got my MBA I often noticed that the students who were good in accounting, often struggled with finance and economics.  And, the reverse was true too.\n\nI think a good comparison is Algebra and Geometry.  Algebraic formulas often have to be memorized cold, because you would be hard pressed to replicate them through logic.  Geometry, on the other hand, you stand a much better chance to reconstruct a theorem using logic and common sense.  \n\nAlgebra is like Accounting.  Geometry is like Finance.  That may give you an idea if you are more gifted for one discipline or the other.  If you were equally excellent in high school algebra and geometry you have a very balanced quantitative mind.  And, you will have no problem with either accounting or finance. \n\nIf you need further clarification, please contact me through "Answer."

It's a smaller computer accounting software package(I know you know that, some others might not).\n\nPlease note that "smaller" does not mean "inferior" - not everyone wants a HUGE car, house/dog or whatever else - you should use what fits your needs.\n\nIf you have a good basic understanding of financial accounting, you should be able to teach yourself just by playing with it, assuming you can get a copy of the software - it should run on any reasonable home PC.\n\nStart with Learn Direct - they do most of the basic ofiice packages, depending on your location - and if they don't do sage they should be able to tell you who does.

Well financial accounting is more to do with the reporting requirements which rely on many accounting conventions like accrual concept, matching concept..etc..\n\nWhereas cost accounting is used more often to arrive at a product cost or cost of an activity, or a service,\n\nFin Acc is more broad based in the sense that it used for arriving at the profit/loss of a given period which would consider the financial performance of the organization.\n\nBut not cost accounting..which is Keeping account of the costs of items in production
