Usual Lines:



"Wow Accounting ka pala, edi ang galing mo sa Math"


"Ayoko ng Math eh, kaya di ako ng-Accounting"




~ Lines related or lines that somewhat had the same thought like the speakers there are considered nonetheless. ~


Ano daw?




Yeah Whatever.






By the way, those lines are B U L L S H I T.




So, If you happened to say or thought that those lines are true, . . then you are, . . _________ .


Let's elaborate it a little,..



1st line: "Wow Accounting ka pala, edi ang galing mo sa Math"

~ This is the most terrible mistake of freshman AC students. . . they love math that's why they take up Accountancy. Good Choice? Not Quite.

~ This is also the most common mistake of most people in the Philippines when they heard of Accounting.

~ Accounts? Math!? NaAAH, . .




I'll elaborate later,. let's proceed to the next line,.

"Ayoko ng Math eh, kaya di ako ng-Accounting"

~ I hate trigo, physics, chemistry, geometry, algebra, etc. way back in high school that's why I didn't take accounting.

Gaaah,.. You may just want to say,... ~ that's why I didn't take Engineering."



Kidding aside, I love Geometry and Trigonometry. I even did well in Physics. I just love those formulas, formula derivations,.. seeking for the answer,.. *sighs*






You don't like Math.

You don't like Accounting.



What the?!


First thing,..

what is Math?

Solving? Yeah! But I bet, you are pertaining to the complicated math,.. (geometry, trigo, algebra etc. right?)


That is NOT Accounting.


Never Assume that because you see numbers or values ranging from hundred thousands to millions, then it's the hard math.



The Operations in Accounting:



1. Addition & Subtraction

~ Main operations used.

2. Multiplication & Division

~ Rare operations used but still present in very few topics.


-END-



Next, We are always provided with calculators and sometimes computer and computer programs just to COMPUTE.


In short, it's the very BASIC MATH.


even Preschoolers know how to add and subtact.


Don't you know how?



You can never say that Accounting is about Math because of those operations. So, plainly reference of Accounting as a strenuous math subject is just PLAIN WRONG.



but,..


Accounting is not Adding or Subtracting, . .

Accounting is knowing what, when, where, and how to Add or what, when, where, and how to Subtract.




failure to answer ALL those questions will cost you your life.


[I'm a bit exaggerating]


Sounds simple?



If Accounting is not Math, Then what is IT?




A N A L Y S I S




Then more Analysis, Then even more Analysis.



simple example or distinction:

Wizards Versus Sages

or

High Wizards versus Professors


A Wizard studies how to cast a spell.

A Sage studies how a spell is casted, then he manages to cast a spell too, .


Got it?



Did I make it more complicated?




Bottom line: As long as, you know how to Add, Subtract, Multiply and Divide,. You can basically study Accounting. Provided that you LOVE to THINK and you can afford to be LOVING and HARD-Working.

Pretty Sharp memory (Long term) is a requirement too.


*drops dead*

Additional thoughts:


Accounting

~ Even the dictionary's definition never said that Accounting is about solving mathematical problems.


Accounting as a lay man's term is used if you owe something.

example:

You are accounted for doing this and that.

you are accounted this sum of money because of, . ..




~ did you solve something like the x is a value of y squared,.. or the area or the torque is blah blah blah. ~???


Some self-made reminders:


1. If you don't like MASSIVE thinking then don't take this as your major.

2. If you are suffering from memory gap or memory loss then don't take accounting.

3. I f you don't like to study anymore after you graduate then don't take this course.

4. If you are lazy,.. God forbid don't take this as a major.

5. If you love going out, spending time to have fun after classes or weekends, . . better not take Accounting.


Accounting, like LAW is a demanding Lover~

6. If you like easy work, .. yeah you know what I wanted to say,..
( a single topic missed will cause you a lot of trouble)

7 If you love your life, . .I mean your Health,.. just, .. DON'T TAKE ACCOUNTING as your major.

( this applies to most of the students or people who studies/studied accounting)
