CPA Firm Accountant Test

The CPA Firm Test is designed for candidates active licensed CPA's or a member of an equivalent professional body. 

This test assesses accounting knowledge and skills for roles in CPA firms (manager level and below).   

This test is specific to the USA with annually updated questions to reflect current taxation legislation and financial reporting requirements.

If you're interested in a more industry / commerce related test have a look at the CPA (Corporate) Test or the Management Accounting Test. Also see the Non-CPA Public Accounting Test for roles requiring a lower level of technical skills.

This test covers five core accounting activities:

  • Accounting
  • Financial Reporting (US GAAP)
  • Taxation (Federal)
  • Business Advisory & Analysis
  • Business Growth & Forecasting

Gain insight into a candidate's skills and knowledge in each of these five activities and identify performance in the activities most relevant to the vacant role, as well as a comparative overall score and performance against a norm group of other licensed CPA's.
