Minutes after your college graduation, your family is gathered around discussing your achievements and future plans. Your uncle asks what exactly you plan to do with your degree in accounting. While there are many career opportunities, you explain, you are going to become a CPA and gain experience as an auditor. “You’re going to work for the IRS!” your uncle exclaims. “No,” you clarify, “I’m going to audit companies, not individuals’ taxes.”Your uncle replies, “Great, we need more people out there to catch those corporate crooks. You’re going to make a great financial detective.” What type of accountant is your uncle really thinking of? What other designations are beneficial to such an accountant? What are the job responsibilities and activities performed by an accountant who is a “financial detective”?
