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 managers, lenders, investors, tax authorities, regulators, 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."

I know that Florida Atlantic offers a masters degree in Forensic Accounting, but I would like to know, what other schools offer this or a similar masters program? A list would be great, because so far all I've found are regular Accounting masters programs, with no specific concentration. Thanks! Asked by Kenny - Thu Jul 2 15:08:38 2009 - - 2 Answers - 1 Comments A. I hope this is in someway helpful. I've been unable to find any Forensic Accounting Master's, aside from the one you've mentioned. However, you don't require a Master's in Forensic Accounting if you're interesting in that field. Most forensic accountants that I've spoken with are C.P.A's within large firms. I'm Canadian, so I'm unsure which universities offer that specific program. Some other Master's concentrations you could look into are MBA's in Fraud Examination (I think Argosy offers it); or look into Strayer's different MBA concentrations (if I recall they had quite a few, perhaps even forensic accounting)/ But, I'm guessing you're aware of the universities which offer MBA's in Accounting, and are only looking for Forensic… [cont.] Answered by painkilla33 - Sat Jul 4 17:28:37 2009 What is the best and simple accounting software? Q. I need an accounting software that is simple to use and user-friendly for my home and business expenses. I only need it to track my expenses. I would prefer the software to contain some sort of option to connect to my bank account online in order to track checks that have cleared. I've tried Quickbooks Pro and, to be honest, I didn't really put a lot of effort into learning how to use it, but for me it just wasn't very user-friendly. Inexpensive and easy... anyone know?

Q. I'm start my own webstore from my home..I'm looking for the simpliest,most accurate, user friendly and most inexpensive accounting software possible...I have Windows XP Home Edition. Asked by Chris B - Thu Dec 20 01:25:39 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. Quickbooks is excellent, and I would always recommend it first to businesses that have complex data entry, but it runs from $100-300. If you are looking for something cheaper and just as easy, check out Quicken (the little brother of Quickbooks and made by the same company). You can get the business program for $50...and it is compatible with most bank accounts. That means, you can download your bank account information directly into Quicken from your online account and save tons of data entry time. More banks do this for Quicken then for Quickbooks and it is fairly easy to use. It will also download into TurboTax at the end of the year to help you with your taxes. Hope this helps.
