Answer 1 :
It's a very broad question you are asking. Let me see if I can break this down for you. Accountants has many sub-segments or emphasis. There are certified auditors, cost accountants, or tax accountants. Out of the 3, cost accountants, at he beginning should make the most because it is the most tedious job of the 3. Very boring, noting exciting. Looking at budgets and costs all day long for a company. 2nd highest should be tax, since tax accountants need to be very familiar with tax laws and updated regulations. A very difficult task, some say it's very boring, some say it's very exciting. Depends on your personality. Last should be auditors. Several reasons: 1) This job is in very high demand. Because in order to be a CPA, you'll need audit hours in the old days. (With new CPA requirements, you'll only need to work under a CPA for a year to become a General CPA). Financial consultants is too board as well. There are Certifed Financial Analyst, CFPlanner, etc. These guys get paid way higher than the accountants.
