QUOTE(wawasan2200 @ Jun 6 2021, 09:43 AM) I have done my ACCA and no intention to discredit the profession i agree with you.all engineering > ACCA Accounting knowledge, standards are set by human being Engineering somehow need to understand how the universe works eg: what happen if one chemical mix with another chemical In engineering wrong means wrong, building will collapse, product will fail while accounts wrong can u turn pusing pusing i am an engineering GM and i employ accountants. I can do some of their work. Understand the fundamentals of accounting and financials. But they have no way of understanding fundamental engineering principles. |

QUOTE(DuFfz @ Jun 6 2021, 09:56 AM) Don't discredit them for we did not sit & do their job full time, we just have that view we understand the fundamental then we assume its easy and we can do it. It is not discrediting them. That is not the intent. They have their expertise areas.If it's easy why don't we do it ourselves right? i am just pointing out the adaptibility of either profession to each other's expertise. And i am in a position to share this a engineering GM in my company. |
