Difference Between a CPA Accountant and a Regular Accountant
When considering accounting services in Calgary, it's important to understand the difference between a CPA accountant and a regular accountant.
Certification and Education
A CPA Accountant in Calgary has completed rigorous education and training requirements, including a university degree, professional education, and practical experience. They must also pass the CPA exam, a comprehensive test covering various aspects of accounting, tax, and finance. Regular accountants may have accounting degrees but must not meet these stringent certification standards.
Scope of Services
CPA accountants can provide a broader range of services compared to regular accountants. These services include bookkeeping, tax planning, financial analysis, and business consulting. They are also authorized to represent clients in dealings with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). Regular accountants, while skilled, may offer different levels of specialized services or representation.
Regulatory Standards
CPAs are held to high professional and ethical standards set by the CPA regulatory bodies. They must adhere to continuing education requirements to maintain their designation. Regular accountants do not have the same mandatory regulatory oversight, which can affect the consistency and reliability of their work.
Trust and Credibility
Hiring a CPA accountant like us at Bohorquez Professional Corporation provides an added layer of trust and credibility. CPAs have demonstrated their expertise and commitment to the field, which can be particularly reassuring for complex tax and financial matters.
