outlook & analysis

challenges for the accounting profession: private equity, offshoring, training new hires

new tech will force firms to examine value pricing if they haven’t already.

by gale crosley
the rosenberg national survey of cpa firm statistics

private equity interest in the profession will continue. new pe organizations are dotting the landscape, showing interest in firms from the top to the near bottom of the market. family offices and esop investment bankers/consultants are appearing. in the future, firms will have multiple alternative sources of equity capital.

editor’s note: every year, the 2024 rosenberg national survey of cpa firm statistics asks the profession’s top consultants two sets of questions:

- how do you think the next 12 months will unfold? trends? predictions? other thoughts?
- how would you assess the last 12 months? trends? observations? struggles?

the disruptors
with liz farr

in 2016, jackie meyer needed a change.

long hours, health issues, and missing out on her kids’ activities forced her to make a radical change. she leaned into tax advisory and tried a new value pricing methodology, which “tripled to quadrupled revenue for our clientele,” even after selling 60 percent of her clients.

transforming audit for the future

“far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.” – theodore roosevelt

when you think about business leaders like bill gates or reed hastings, the founder of netflix, it’s clear that these people did not create their empires by focusing on narrow measures like realization rates or increasing their profit margin. neither of these organizations would have become the household names they are if their founders had had such narrow views, and if they had not been able to move these very large companies in new directions in response to changes in the world.
