Accounting or accountancy is the study of how an organization records financial transactions and analyzes and communicates the results of such transactions. Utilizing standard accounting financial statements, accountants analyze operating results and discuss ways users can utilize this information. Accountants are employed in private business, non-profit, and governmental settings. The four year degree prepares students for entry level positions.
