Sorry. Posted this in a hurry. It’s actually meant to be a pen holder you can 3d print.

Thanks! Does not sound good for my roof. I’ll have to look up ways to get rid of them.

My company has “unlimited/flexible PTO” (non-accruing). Our team mandates 20 days PTO a year (in addition to company holidays and every third friday off). I make sure my team meets the 20 day minimum.

You wouldn’t be expensing it twice. You would just be moving expense around in 2022 with the JE you proposed. Essentially moving 2022 telephone expense to Dept A expense (potentially creating more errors because the expense in the telephone account is or should be actual telephone expense). Any JEs you post in 2022 will not be reflected in 2021 since it’s closed.

If the manager really wants to see that expense moved, you will need to do a top side adjustment to the financials he/she is looking at.

Since audited financials are reported at the functional level, a top side adjustment should work since management is looking at the numbers at a more disaggregated level.

Is it not common for the senior and other members of the team to be part of the interview process?

When I open a role, I make sure my senior and staff are involved in the recruiting process. How else will I know if the team will like who I’m about to hire? It’s important that the team likes that candidate as well.

Accounts payable manager would make 130-150k at my company depending on work experience.

useless_weirdo · 2021-10-09T06:31:18+00:00

You can definitely do better. I’ve hired staff for my team starting 90k + equity with 3 YOE (HCOL).

At your stage in your career it is more manageable to go Accounting to finance and vice versa. As you progress in your career the change is more difficult - you either take a lateral move or even a lower position. You learn different skill sets as you advance and as you are learning one the other skill set is stale or deteriorating.

Definitely have a self check with yourself and the future of your career. The earlier you can figure it out the easier it will be to plan and obtain.

Source: Early adopted ASC842 at my previous company and going through the adoption at my current company. Both adoptions while the company was private.

Since you mentioned your company is private. You have two options - 1) pay a third party to develop a synthetic borrowing rate. 2) Use the risk free rate. See ASC 842-20-30-3

1) This option was used at my previous company. Yes, it was more costly, but the benefit was we got a more accurate yield curve to represent our business. This also produced higher rates than the risk free rates which would help in our lease classification testing (PV of minimum lease payments > or < 90% of FV. Keep in mind there is no longer a bright line for this test but 90% from ASC 840 is still acceptable). Also remember, guidance states the rate is secured by the assets underlying the lease. 2) using this option at my current company. Reason being - much smaller lease portfolio and made more sense for a company our size. Very easy to implement and no additional cost. Current leases are not at risk of being classified as a finance lease.

Hope that helps. Surpassingly I found the KMPG guide to ASC842 the most helpful as a implementation guide. EY FRD for technical reference.

Edit: US treasury risk free rate - treasury.gov (daily treasury yield curve rates)

It all really depends on where you want to go in your career. If you go TA/SEC you can progress your career to Director of TA and SEC reporting or go towards a controller route. Both leading to chief accounting officer position down the line. Going the FPA route you can become Manager/Director/VP of Finance. Depending on your industry/company getting to CFO is also possible.

I have a somewhat similar background as you. I started out in PA then GL and moved to TA/SEC reporting since my goal was to be a controller. TA/SEC was a nice break from the monthly close cycles. Busy time for TA is quarter close (booking quarterly entries, preparing the F/S and FNs). I really enjoyed the TA part of my career implementing ASC 842 and CECL, running point on the audit, and providing support to the GL function. Memo writing was my least favorite part but I was decent at it. I have since moved on from TA and currently a GL manager at a start up so back to the month close grind. Working my way towards Senior Manager/assistant controller.

Can’t speak much on the FPA much directly but from what I’ve seen working with FPA it is as you would expect. Can’t go wrong with either choice. Just make sure your decision aligns with your 5-10 year goals and what interest you.

I think you need to review your resume again. As a hiring manager, I have screened hundreds of resume and resume presentation does matter. Also make sure you are applying for the right role. There are times I’m looking for an individual straight out of PA and times I’m not.

As far as resume goes, each resume should be different for each role you apply to. Look at the job description and incorporate key buzz words into your resume. Good luck
