how savvy cpa firms are fighting back.

by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research

a new state cpa society report on the dwindling number of college graduates who are pursuing cpa credentials underscores an issue that’s already being confronted by some forward-thinking accounting firms.

the statistics are daunting:

  • nearly half of college accounting majors never sit for the cpa exam.
  • a third of those who take the cpa exam never complete it.
  • on average, it takes 6.5 attempts for candidates to pass all four parts.
  • only 27 percent of test-takers finish all four parts on the first try.
  • 75 percent of current cpas are projected to retire within the next 15 years.
