STEP 3 LISTEN WITH THE TRANSCRIPT   pay attention to the pronunciation for a reading exercise later.

It is difficult to pinpoint what an accountant does because there are so many areas  in accounting like tax and audit.Like i said before  or real estate there is a lot of areas an accountant can specialize in .

The days of an accountant sitting in a cube crunching numbers are really going away or are gone .

An accountant has to take those numbers and  figure what the meanings are behind those numbers  and very importantly be able to communicate  that meaning to upper management and those within the business  and also make decisions  that would be consistent with the numbers  and consistent with companies strategy .

So an accountant is really a partner  to upper management  aiding them in making decisions
