Accounting is often called the language of business. Organizations plan, assess and report the results of financial condition and cash position, using accounting principles to prepare financial statements that express business operations to both internal and external users of financial information.

External users assess creditability, performance, risk, and investment potential, while internal users assess the efficiency of resource allocation, performance and achievement of strategic objectives in the daily management of a business. All organizations, whether large or small, rely on accountants to record and report the activities of the business.
