USC has one. Cal State Northridge, Loyola Marymount, and some of UC schools have it. But, if I were you I go for Master in Taxation to expand my chances of landing on safe job..

what is master budget in managerial accounting
what is master budget in managerial accounting?
this is a homework question of introduction to managerial accounting, the name of the chapter is "operating budgets: bridging planning and control". the teacher wants us to work on an example that a university library prepares an annual master budget, and asks us to prepare 3 individual budgets that would be part of the master budget the thing is I really don't understand what a master budget means. so i dont even understand the hint from the teacher that "direct labor budget and direct material budget won't make sense here" anyone can give me a clue so i can continue with the homework?

The master budget lays out the general expenses and income for the whole library. The individual budgets use their alloted amounts under the master budget to figure out their own division's expenses and income.

Is there a difference btwn a Master of Accounting and Master of Science in Accounting
Is there a difference btwn a Master of Accounting and Master of Science in Accounting?
I will be starting on my MBA at UTampa, with an accounting concentration, in the January. I have an Applied Econ degree from FSU, and I felt this is the best way to ease into the accounting arena. However, is the MAcc better than the MSA? I plan to take the CPA exam upon completion of both (MBA and MSA) degrees.

No, they are the same. Master of Accounting is just a different way to put it. They are both Master of science, Accounting degrees. Good Luck, Also taking the CPA exam only requires a Bachelor's of Science, Accounting, and 24 credit hours of accounting classes. So basically 5 years of schooling. So you can get your CPA before your Masters. That is the way it is in South Carolina check it out. (That is if you want to get a jump start of a job if you cant wait then wait)

I recieved the MAcc degree from FSU and can tell you the differences between the MAcc & MBA programs at FSU. The MAcc requires more Accounting classes than the MBA (even if getting an MBA with a concentration in Accounting). The MAcc prepares you to pass the CPA exam and enter the Accounting profession. The MBA prepares you for a high level job in the corporate arena, with more managment and Finance classes than you would take in the MAcc program (altho there is a little overlap - I took a couple of classes with the MBA students). The accounting classes in the MBA program are more basic/elementary than in the MAcc program (in fact, one of the MBA accounting classes will NOT be accepted as part of the 150 hour rule requirement to sit for the CPA exam in FL). However - these are the differences between FSU's programs. If you are comparing Tampa's MSA with FSU's MAcc, you should print a list of required courses for each (FSU's MAcc classes can be found on FSU's Accounting page: http://cob.fsu.edu/acc/macc.cfm ) and then make the comparison. You can also compare stats like the former graduates' pass rate on the CPA exam. Good luck!

University of Illinois - Urbana Champaign has a MSA program that is for students that have a business background other than Accounting. In addition, U of I is known as one of the premier accounting programs for both undergrad and graduate studies.

Can I start accounting at the master's level
Can I start accounting at the master's level?
Let's say I graduate with a non-vocational bachelor's degree (history, math) - can I apply and get into a master's accounting program? Or is this limited to administration degrees? How about finance?

The Master of Accounting program at The Ohio State University provides you with a broader and deeper understanding of how accounting functions within an organization. This is not a fifth year of technical accounting education.Creating the best prepared and most qualified job seekers is the number one goal of the Fisher College of Business Career Management Team.

You could try looking up a few programs and seeing what they require - here are the requirements to enter the masters in accounting program at UMass Amherst, for example. They require a minimum of 18 credit hours in accounting and 24 credit hours in business courses. http://www.isenberg.umass.edu/accounting/Graduate/MSA/Applying/ So no, it doesn't look like you can just jump into a masters program without the background.

Absolutely you can. For admission, most Master of Accounting programs require a few undergrad accounting classes (and possibly a few other business classes like economics). Look at the requirements of the program you're interested in. All you would need to do is take the required classes, and then apply. Master of Finance programs will typically require students to have a business related undergrad degree, or a degree in other quantitative fields, like computer science, physics, or math. Best of luck!
