  • What is the difference between finance and accounting? Are finance and accounting different and separate fields, or are there overlaps? Let me provide my Finance Storyteller perspective on finance versus accounting, I look forward to engaging in further discussion with you in the comment section below!
    A very generalized view of the difference between finance and accounting is the following: finance is managing the company’s financial resources, accounting is recording and reporting the (financial) transactions of a company. Finance is viewed as forward looking, planning future transactions. Accounting is viewed as backward looking, recording past transactions. This distinction of finance versus accounting sounds good, but might be an oversimplification versus how things work in the real world.
    So let me propose (in this video) a more granular and gradual view of finance and accounting, as a continuum.

    thank you for this, would it be possible to do an mba in finance after completing bba in accounting (or vice versa)? would the concepts be completely alien or be reletively easy to cope?

      I think it should be doable, if you are willing to work hard for it. And remember, having a good understanding of how to T-account your way out of any difficult situation is priceless!!!

    I'm pretty good at mathematics and I can't decide which will be better for me as a career. Finance or Accounting?

      I can't decide it for you, but would like to advise you that an education is a means to an end, and that many people at some point in their life will work in a very different sector or industry from where they started out....

      Both accounting and finance have good prospects. If you make a choice for now, it's never too late to learn more and develop additional skills. Make sure there is a good balance between challenges and skills.
