We here at Roger CPA Review comb through the best accounting blogs to bring you the creme de la creme – at least in our humble opinion* – presented here for your reading pleasure.
Like the idea? Let us know and we’ll be happy to make this a regular feature as new accounting blogs show up on our radar all the time!
Keep in mind that this is by no means a comprehensive list, just a few of our favorites that we would hate to keep to ourselves. In fact, we are constantly impressed by the sheer number and volume of great accounting content coming out of the blogosphere.
Skeptical CPA
This blog’s description reads: “I am a CPA in Texas with an MBA from the University of Chicago. I have seen a lot and made many mistakes. Hopefully by now I will have learned something from them. Just as importantly, you may learn something from my mistakes” but after a little regular reading, it’s clear that Skeptical CPA offers much, much more. Though written by a CPA, the site focuses on a variety of issues from the Federal Reserve to regulation, law to accounting, Skeptical CPA covers everything from a no-nonsense, been-there-done-that perspective.
Update frequency: daily, if not multiple times a day
FEI Financial Reporting Blog
Love financial reporting? Then you’re going to absolutely adore FEI’s Financial Reporting blog. Regulatory and reporting issues in the accounting industry are far more important than they may appear to some new accounting grads; no one is saying you have to fall in love with regulation but if you want to keep up on industry changes (+ fair, balanced analysis), this is the place to be.
Update frequency: several times monthly
*Adrienne notes here that she may be speaking for herself in saying these blogs are some favorites, and invites both colleagues and CPA exam candidates alike to contribute any do-not-miss reads of their own in the comments section!
