How to help your CFO fight the Great Accountant Shortage

It’s mid-summer–typically a time for freshly minted accounting grads and CPAs to enjoy the outdoors before starting their new careers. However, the AICPA estimates that 3 out of every 4 accountants hit retirement age in 2020, and the US is currently short 340,000 accountants compared with 5 years ago. Couple that with the fact that mid-career retention has also struggled, and undergraduates are less likely to commit to the 150 credit hours required for certification, and it's no wonder why Controllers and CFOs might be sweating–it isn’t the heat! Has the accountant shortage impacted your business and your ability to close on time and generate error-free statements?
