Question: You have just completed your training as an accountant and are trying to get a job in the accounting field. Your potential employer asks you if you are interested in working in the financial accounting area or the managerial accounting area.
- Describe the primary differences between the two areas-financial and managerial. Evaluate this in terms of the following perspectives:
- You are an employee working in either of these fields. Compare how your duties will be different and asses what guidelines would be required.
- You are a stockholder deciding whether to invest in a business. Choose which reports you might like to review, and appraise if these reports be financial reports, managerial reports, or both.
- You are a creditor determining whether to loan money to this company. Choose what type of information would you want to see, and evaluate the type of accountant who would produce these, financial or managerial.
- Using proper APA format, support your answers with appropriate scholarly research, examples, and evaluation. Appraise your peers' postings and provide substantive feedback.
