Steps to becoming Chartered Accountant including Uni?
I am in second year of college and will be taking Accounting and Finance at University, after this course I was wondering how difficult it will be to get a job, a rough salary and what I would need to do to become a chartered accountant. I really don't want to skip the steps as I feel Uni will be an experience lost. Thanks for input.

Answer 1 :
My Dad has no qualifications and he is a successful accountant- although he is not Chartered. Try a college course and maybe become an office 'junior' mat the same time. Then look into university and/or ACCA qualifications. My step-mum is also an accountant, but she studied Finance at Leeds University and then did ACCA later on. There are lots of roots into this, its all about which one suits you best.

Answer 1 :
no. prepare them yourself to save money, then get your accountant to check and sign off
Answer 2 :
No but there are audit requirements if your company reaches a certain size, and you need to make a statement that none of the shareholders have requested an independent examination of the accounts.
Answer 3 :
you can do them but you may need to have them audited - any good accountant should save you more than their fee - are you a tax expert? if not very careful you can end up with a big tax bill - remember the tax rules change with every budget - do you really want to spend days understanding what you can and cannot claim??
