I like your videos. Do you have any tips for Excel? There's so much to it and it's difficult not knowing exactly how adept you have to be for employers. They seem to expect you to know everything.
Hi and thank you. You should definitely learn the basics i.e. formulas for basic adding of cells and averages. Also how to make the spreadsheet look presentable i.e. adjusting the column sizes and spacing. Then go into intermediate items like using data from rows and columns to create a pivot table and charts. Once you master that, practice harder formulas like VLookUP and SumIF. Knowing these elements will put you ahead of many others.
thank you for this video! I am understanding a lot more about accounting! do you have to like math in order to do the work of an accountant? I don't like math and I am not good at it! my highest score in a math class for college was statistic, and I got a c! so if I am not good at math, will I ever be good at doing the work of an accountant? how will a person be able to do the work of an accountant if they are not good at doing well in math classes in high school and in college
Hi. You don't have to like math. Your software and calculator will give you all the answers. You mainly do adding, subtracting, multiplying and division. Division comes in a lot with Ratios and KPIs. You will need to be able to "see" if the numbers look wrong or aren't adding up. These will be red flags that something was entered wrong or the item given had bad numbers. In higher positions, you will need to interpret the numbers and help others to understand them.
