Answer 2 :
if there is a male boss, yes, but we also have to consider if the blonde female is hot
Answer 3 :
You cannot say so? Some are blonde bimbos. But some are tough as nails, intimidating and competitive. But generally blondes are perceived as hot/sexy and not too highly intellectual! But if you are in competition with them, don't assume they are easy. Judge wrongly to your own peril!
Answer 4 :
Any judgement made on the gender would, by definition, be discrimination. This applies when favouring females over males, just the same as if favouring males over females. Its also quite likely that favouring blonde hair would be racial discrimination, on the basis that blonde hair is only common in north European racial groups, and is virtually unheard of in black African and most Asian groups. So if you did consider a blonde, female accountant to be more "competitive" you would be discriminating potentially making yourself liable for a large compensation settlement in favour of any non-female, non-blonde candidates.

Can you work as both a Tax Accountant as well as an Insolvency Practitioner?
Can you work as both a Tax Accountant as well as an Insolvency Practitioner?
I'm an Accounting student, working towards being chartered. I'm interested in both Tax and Insolvency. Is it possible to pursue both areas, or can you only specialise in one? When I say 'Insolvency', I also mean to include Corporate restructuring etc

Answer 1 :
When they use their personal cards, get the transaction record and the official receipt, to record...debit Advances to Officers/Employees, credit Accounts Payable. When they pay through the company check, debit the Accounts Payable then credit Cash in Bank...
Answer 2 :
It depends upon how your company treats the personal part of the purchase. It should be entered against a loan account for each employee and either they should reimburse the company, be deducted from their wages or treated as a benefit in kind and added to their P11d and then they are taxed on it. You cannot reclaim the VAT on these items.
Answer 3 :
All personnal should submit an expenses form with attached receipt of the expenses. Expenses should be authorised by a senior manager.Please make payment against the total of the expenses form. Accounting: (1)debit expenses in profit and loss account and credit Individual personal account (2) Debit Individual Personal Account and credit Bank ( when you pay the employee)
Answer 4 :
a former employee of mine is a a self employed accountant and an expert at Quickbooks, if you want his contact details email me
Answer 5 :
Debit the company expenses for the company part of the value (make sure you do the VAT element too) and debit an employee loan or expenses account for their personal expenses (again be careful about the VAT as this cannot be claimed back) and credit bank in the usual way. When they repay the money debit bank and credit the loan or expense account and as always be careful about the VAT.

What Subjects Should I Pick If I Want To Be An Accountant?
What Subjects Should I Pick If I Want To Be An Accountant?
I am only in my 2nd year of high school at the moment but I am picking my subjects in two weeks and I was just looking for some advice.

Answer 1 :
mathematics, accounting, calculus, trigonometry
Answer 2 :
You will need at least one higher math class, and if you have any other business-type courses, I would recommend those as well.
Answer 3 :
maths is a cert, english also and either physics and/or chemistry as it will help with equations.
Answer 4 :
Law, Bookkeeping, Statistics, Economics, Cookery. It's such a dull job at least you can eat well!!
Answer 5 :
Perhaps things such as - Business Studies ICT Make sure that the subjects that you've picked are what you want to do. Just because they're good for the job, doesn't mean that you will enjoy them. Good luck!
Answer 6 :
accounts, business studies, maths :)
Answer 7 :
Maths defiantly. Business studies and perhaps economics i would say. Have a chat with a careers advisor aswell maybe, they can be very helpful
Answer 8 :
I would guess that maths and English would be most important. As well as being good at maths you would have to be able to write letters and communicate effectively. If you have the option of doing economics or business studies that would seem like a good idea too. Good Luck and Best Wishes
Answer 9 :
Accounting related classes
Answer 10 :
check your school library for the UCAS book and check what requirements each university requires that will tell you the subjects required for your courses
Answer 11 :
You don't need to specialize in high school. Take college prep classes, heavy on the math of course, but don't leave out things like foreign language or music if you like them. You need an education at this point in your life, because you may change your mind several times. So now is the time to try many things to see where your interests and abilities really are.
