These are three exams, three different certificates, not all in one. If you can pass all three certificate exams, it will be really boring.
First of all, the CPA exam is sponsored by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and after passing the exam, it will also be administered by the Institute. The Certified Asset Appraiser Examination is sponsored by the Ministry of Personnel and will be administered by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants upon passing. The Certified Tax Agent Examination is sponsored by the Ministry of Personnel and will also be administered by the Personnel Department after passing the exam.
This is due to insufficient policy implementation. Yes, the state has long wanted to merge and manage these three divisions. However, since the examination can bring some income, the Ministry of Personnel is always unwilling to hand over management rights to the Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
Secondly, the industry In terms of prospects, certified public accountants are the best, because this is recognized by the International Federation of Accountants, and of course, it is recognized academically.
The second is the certified asset appraiser. Due to the revision of the new accounting standards, fair value will be used extensively in accounting in the future. This value needs to be evaluated by an appraiser. The most useless one is the certified tax accountant. A certified tax accountant is a capable tax accountant. They can do it, but not the other way around. Therefore, the Tax Accountants Association of the Ministry of Personnel always said that CPAs have taken away their jobs. Therefore, the Ministry of Personnel and the tax department prepared to formulate an industry monopoly plan, that is, all tax audit reports in the future will be made by Tax accountants are required, otherwise it will be ineffective. Damn it, the Chinese government is so immature. However, registered tax accountants are of little use even under a monopoly. Their professional skills are generally low. There are some who are high-level, but overall they are low.
