year over year, cpa firm staffs are growing by 4.7 percent while payroll overall is increasing at a 4.6 percent rate. the number of tax preparation employees is falling, however, 12.5 percent for the latest month, but up 3.2 percent for the year. women are making some large year-over-year gains as well – 4.8 percent at cpa firms and 12 percent at payroll services.
accounting firms expand at 5% rate
but why is hiring up and wages down?
by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间
accounting employment in most sectors once again hit new highs, according to new 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research.
gains over 5 percent were seen year over year in overall staff employment; cpa staff employment; women overall, at cpa firms and in payroll; payroll overall and staff numbers; and payroll staff hours. unfortunately, that last group saw their earnings swing down even more.
the 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 monthly jobs report has been following a decline in wages and a simultaneous increase in headcounts, which may signal a new dynamic at play in the industry. robert fligel, president and ceo of rf resources, the leading new york cpa firm m&a broker and executive recruiter, suggests several factors may be the cause. “i think firm are hiring more lower level people, like more new college grads; more home-grown talent; and the effect of outsourcing.”

new research: cpa firms hiring more, paying less
overall headcounts expand as average wages decline.
by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research
the accounting profession is on a roll, at least where employment is concerned. record highs are being set for all sectors except bookkeeping, which tied may’s mark, and tax preparation, which has fallen for two months.
meanwhile, women continue to make strong gains, with year-over-year increases ranging from 6.8 to a staggering 23.8 percent. and payroll continues the same path it’s been on for months: more employees, who work longer and make less.
the rise in demand for labor while prices decline would seem to defy the laws of supply and demand.
one or more of several factors may be at play. labor supply may be suddenly expanding as new workers enter the market from the sidelines. or, cpa firms may be throttling wages in order to increase partner incomes, a key factor in potentially lubricating the m&a frenzy as partners age out. or, it could mean firms are replacing high-wage workers with new technologies and pushing more work down the pyramid, raising partner-to-staff leverage — a trend detected in other research studies. in any case, it’s a phenomonon 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 is investigating.
