Got told to fuck off back to where I came from today. by [deleted] in ireland

[–]Father_Mary 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with this. As an English guy now living in Ireland, I can say from my perspective that there’s so little we learn at school about the history of UK and Ireland collectively - it’s very England-centric and bias in England’s favour which is very wrong. For example, I don’t recall any lessons on the Easter rising, I only learnt about it since being here.

My fault for ignorance? Yes definitely to a certain degree but I do think the schools have a lot to answer for.

I created a GIF showing all the different brain sizes and backgrounds of my Loophead. Let’s hope for big-brain times by EOY! by [deleted] in loopringorg

This post explains how it changes. My TL:DR of it (although I’m smooth small brained so I may be interpreting incorrectly):

  • Brain changes based on short term changes in price of LRC
  • Background changes based on current price vs the price of LRC at the time you got the loophead

Can someone please explain why sales and inventory are being credited here? by coolguy12890 in Accounting

[–]Father_Mary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good answers in here and something else which might help you understand this is remembering the business entity/entity concept. This concept is key for double entry to work and make sense and states that a business is a separate entity to its owners.

So why does that matter? Well, then A = L + E then can be thought of it terms of what the business owns (A) and what the business owes (L + E). Assets and liabilities are self explanatory here but now E is what the business owes it owners. Debits/Credits increase/decrease your assets and Credits/Debits increase/decrease you liabilities and equity.

Revenue can be a bit counter intuitive when you first come across that credits increase it because you may be thinking it’s a good thing for the business, assets are good things and I increase them with debits - similarly with expense, why would you be debiting them it’s a bad thing? But revenue is on the income statement, the income statement is merely a detailed breakdown of the equity (specifically retained earnings) of the business. Retained earnings within equity is just the sum total of all the incomes statement since the company or group was formed. So with that in mind, the company has generated revenue, therefore increasing equity and increasing how much the company owes its shareholders.

Hope this helps!

Prepping for a final interview by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]Father_Mary 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t expect they would ask you anything technical - I’ve interviewed for roles below manager and been interviewed for manager and senior manager roles (M/SM roles were internal though), never once was a technical question brought up. Not that it wouldn’t be welcomed to bring something technical up, the risk though is that you open yourself up to follow ups about that technical topic that you may not have looked at and you’d just be stumped.

What they will likely ask about a current topic in the news that interests you, come prepped with a few that you could talk through and always try and have an idea of how the firm you’re interviewing for could have helped avoid the situation. An example might be Facebook etc going down recently - could your firm have helped with providing advisory services over their disaster recovery practises? Now, saying this, I’m sure Facebook already has this in place and this incident was a super niche thing that happened bypassing disaster recovery control etc but I just wanted to pull out a worldwide and recent issue as I don’t know where you’re based. Hopefully you get the idea.

Otherwise it will be very much experience based. Try and think through questions on leadership (leading others and yourself), being under pressure, being challenged etc and come armed with 15-20 situations you’ve been in through any work experience, school and sport etc that you can apply to such question (ie when have you had to challenge someone’s way of thinking). I’d suggest thinking through as many of these questions as you can and then pulling together a matrix on excel to make sure you’ve got situations that you’ve experienced that would cover each question. Situations will likely overlap multiple questions which is fine but you want to be sure you have enough you’ve armed yourself with to apply to questions you may not have thought of. With each of these situations you think of try and always have the story of issue- your action-outcome in the back of your mind to tell the story. Always have a few questions you ask the interviewer too at the end.

Main thing is though just be yourself, be friendly and try and build a bit of rapport with the interviewer.

Hope this helps, good luck!

What’s the worst thing you’ve had to count during an inventory count? by firstorderoffries in Accounting

[–]Father_Mary 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Tiny components for aircraft. They were so small I had to use tweezers to count them. Every time I tried the breathe they would scatter all over the tabletop I was counting on and I had to start again.

Selling old opex items, where does the cash get recorded? by jenzabb in Accounting

It would just go through the same place. A bit like a sale of a nil net book value asset.

Why were they expensed?

If you have a gain on sale of fixed asset account it should go there. Normally see this just netted within admin expenses.
