College and Cpa firms questions

College Majors Business Majors

<p>My first question:in college, are students allowed to double-major in two businesss concentrations in the same business school? For example, can a student double-major in accounting and finance? If yes, is there some kind of fee you have to pay due to the fact that you’re receiving two degrees after graduation.</p>

<p>Secondly, I plan on majoring in accounting in college in the hopes of someday running a CPA firm so my question is just how profitable are accounting firms? I know the harder you work, the more money you make but I just want a vague idea of the average income of a CPA firm.</p>

<p>You can double major in accounting and finance, check with the school you are going to about any fees for double majoring, and the secret about CPA firms is that there is probably no better prefessional to start, build, and maintain a very profitable business. My friend’s dad owns a CPA firm that only has 3 CPA’s and a few bookkeepers and he does well… I’d guess ~$90-100K/year.</p>
