the statistics depict an industry sector on the move and ready to move. only 57 percent of respondents across the industry, which includes a broad spectrum from academia to large corporation to accounting firms large and small, are working full-time in an office. but only 8 percent are full-time remote.

and wherever they are, a lot of them aren’t very happy.

in the latest episode of the accounting arc podcast, hosts liz mason, cpa, and donny shimamoto, cpa/citp, cgma, explore the evolving role of artificial intelligence (ai) in the accounting profession, focusing on both its transformative potential and the ethical challenges it presents.

their conversation sheds light on the history of ai in accounting, the distinction between different types of ai, and the implications for professional ethics and regulatory standards.

“generative ai is different than machine learning, but machine learning has been in the accounting space for a long time,” says mason, the ceo and founder of high rock accounting. “our code of ethics should be considered at every point in time, and we need to understand the tech, review it, and manage it appropriately, making sure that we’re ahead of the regulatory environment and we’re advising on what it looks like for the future of our profession.”

the disruptors
with liz farr

what would an accounting firm look like if you had never worked in public accounting? because nicole davis, cpa, and jw davis, a registered investment advisor, didn’t follow the traditional path to firm ownership. they reimagined what a firm could look like, starting from a blank canvas instead of the regimented, structured, paint-by-numbers design of traditional accounting firms.

nicole is the founder and principal of butler-davis tax & accounting in the atlanta area, while jw is the ceo.

like many disruptor-led firms, jw explains that ”one of the really big things we focus on was work-life balance.” nicole adds, “if your culture is one of stress and long hours, then you really need to rethink your business model.”

six steps to start value pricing

change is inevitable. value pricing has reached this critical stage.

by jody padar
radical pricing – by the radical cpa

can you remember doing business before cell phones or social media? you really don’t have to be too old to remember because change happens fast. in fact, if you are over 50, you probably remember when every home had a landline, firms advertised in the yellow pages, and accountants charged hourly for mundane compliance tasks.

it really wasn’t that long ago when the internet was intriguing rather than indispensable.

at some point, change becomes inevitable, and i would argue that value pricing has reached this critical stage.

bissett bullet: do your homework

today’s bissett bullet: “how often do you sense-check your proposals against previous projects? you have a wealth of information at your disposal. before you present your solutions to a prospective client, do your research.”

by martin bissett

does a precedent exist? how much did you charge clients in the past for the same work and more importantly, did you achieve an acceptable level of profitability as a result? did you allow for everything you delivered or was there a degree of scope creep and in hindsight, did you price that work correctly?

remember to take into account changes in your own circumstance as well as inflation, the benefit of the experience you have gained and any professional development you have subsequently undertaken.

today’s to-do:

check a recent proposal against something similar in the past. how do the fees compare? would you quote differently bearing in mind the above?

time is a concern, and so is performance.

by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research

the pipeline of incoming accounting professionals isn’t exactly gushing these days. to the contrary, it has slowed to an inadequate dribble.

the scarcity of qualified professionals makes talent retention more important than ever. it’s far easier and less costly to keep current people on board than to attract and onboard new people.

there has been enough behavioral evidence in practice management now observed, collated and reported upon to be able to draw a conclusion that a great leader needs to be at peace internally in order to become a great leader externally. her or his personnel/staff need to see a consistency between that leader’s values and his/her most commonly perceived behaviors.
