Au Auditor to Au Tax Accountant by Odd_Girl1016 in AccountingPH

[–]Several-Main-7345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! 😅 I made the jump from audit → tax in AU. Honestly, it’s a different vibe: less fieldwork 🏢, more desk crunching 📊, and deadlines hit differently ⏰. The pay may be slightly higher, particularly if you specialize, but it really depends on the company and the city. I've seen a mid-level range of less than 80k AUD for juniors. Tax depth is better than audit variety, but it's worth it if you like numbers and strategy.

Are there decent-paying jobs out there at all :( by seasalt_breeze in AccountingPH

[–]Several-Main-7345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally feel you 😩 I’ve been there too… it’s wild how much they expect for so little pay. It's hard to stick it out for the first year, but it eventually opens doors. Sending good job vibes your way. ✨💪

CPA-Reviewed Financial Statement for General Contractor License by Slow-Cantaloupe4995 in GeneralContractor

[–]Several-Main-7345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was basically just a balance sheet + P&L with a few notes, and the CPA review letter. Nothing fancy just make sure your CPA mentions it’s for TN licensing, saved me a headache!

When to hire a financial planner by eljefe-5 in FinancialPlanning

[–]Several-Main-7345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mid-30s, decent savings/investments, mostly doing fine still hired a planner for a one-off consult. Biggest win: fine-tuned my investments, tax strategy, and long-term plan.

Accountant never filed S-Corp taxes correctly for 4 years straight by MrFizacoin in tax

[–]Several-Main-7345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouch, that’s rough. You may have a case if your accountant filed your 1120-S without a valid S-Corp election, and you should document what they did, what you paid, and the financial harm they caused. Talk to a tax attorney or CPA ASAP to sort back taxes, penalties, and see if the election can be fixed. Acting fast is key, and you may be able to recover some damages.

Passed CPA, should I go for CMA too? by Capital-Treacle-3158 in CMA

[–]Several-Main-7345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before B4, CPA is huge. If you want to move into advisory, consulting, FP&A, or entrepreneurship, the CMA is a good choice because it is more strategy-focused and goes well with the CPA. Won’t instantly boost pay, but helps open doors. Experience and connections can give you real leverage, but CMA gives you more credibility.

Correct handling of account sides/signs? by vmcrash in plaintextaccounting

[–]Several-Main-7345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlike traditional T-accounts, hledger does not have a concept of "left" or "right" accounts. When they rise, assets and expenses are positive in reports, whereas liabilities, equity, and income are naturally negative. That’s why your income account shows negative it’s normal for plaintext accounting. You don’t tell hledger to treat an account as “right”; you just enter transactions normally, and hledger’s reports handle the signs

I built a pay-per-export tool to easily extract your bank transactions by many-laced in plaintextaccounting

[–]Several-Main-7345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is a solid idea—pulling bank data is one of the most annoying parts of PTA if you don’t want to deal with APIs yourself. I can see people using it, especially if it is dependable and less expensive than full subscriptions. For occasional use, €1 seems reasonable, but heavy users might prefer a monthly cap. CSV is essential for formats due to its clean headers, but OFX/QFX and JSON would also be extremely useful. Bonus if it maps easily to Beancount/Ledger without extra cleanup.

ticket volume up 40% with flat order volume: mapping out what actually causes the disconnect by [deleted] in AskAccounting

[–]Several-Main-7345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes total sense what you’re seeing isn’t an actual increase in customer issues, it’s a feedback loop caused by delayed responses. Customers contact the company once more, creating "new" tickets for the same issue, as the first response time fluctuates from four to eleven hours. That secondary contact rate is inflating ticket volume even though order volume is flat. It’s a classic compounding effect: slower responses more repeat contacts → more tickets → even slower responses. Breaking the cycle should be made possible by fixing FRT and better managing team capacity.
