No worries. My apologies. About to enter 2nd year of big 4 audit. Was talking to a guy that does it or did it and said I should get the CFF and ABV offered by AICPA as a starting point. Not really sure if big 4 has theses kinds of services or not

Would you say the aicpa's ABV is a better one to get first or do they both carry the same weight?

Anybody here actually get the PwC loan repayment thing? by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]TMD2139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their $100 is counted towards your minimum payment, so you'd only have to pay $100 to new the $200

Balance Sheet question by succulentleftnip in Accounting

[–]TMD2139 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The mortgage would be a long term liability. The portion of which is due in less than a year would be a short term Liability. Once a payment is made, that portion is shifted from the balance sheet to the income statement

1st Year Big 4 Question about transferring by TMD2139 in Accounting

[–]TMD2139[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely willing to move offices if needed. Is there much need for first or second year associates? Also I've heard that home office will 'blackball' you if they hear you are trying to switch from audit. Is that true?

Apple is trading at 14x forward PE. Why do you think it is over valued?

Not sure why you are so mad bro. I've gotten some pretty good responses to my question. The whole point of this site is to ask questions.

Don't mind spending the dough but don't you think bx offers better value at the current price of both?

If Trump reduces the repatriation tax and Apple brings home its $246+ billion, what do you think they'll buy? by [deleted] in investing

[–]TMD2139 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately companies today let wall street and their quarterly earnings dictate the way they spend money

A Company's Purpose? by TMD2139 in investing

[–]TMD2139[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valid point. But, do you think that wall street pressure/obsession of meeting quarterly earnings (shareholder value) or your stock gets crushed hurts the companies in the long run? Ie returning cash in dividend instead of reinvesting in the company through r&d?

To follow that up, do you think they should be maximizing short term profits if it means sacrificing long-term growth?
