What I do every day
I analyze and maintain financial information for clients and make sure
their financial records are prepared and reported accurately. I specialize
in preparing individual tax returns. Other accountants advise companies
about tax laws, investigate bankruptcies, audit financial statements,
examine employer compensation plans, and analyze employee health
care benefits. Using software programs, I organize records and financial
data easily.
