  • Sasan Apologizes to Accountants at Intuit Connect

    Sasan Apologizes to Accountants at Intuit Connect
    Nov 8 2024
    Blake and David examine Sasan Goodarzi's apology and lukewarm reception regarding the recent controversial TurboTax ad campaign. They also take a look at Intuit's new Enterprise Suite product, which aims to compete with NetSuite and Sage Intacct by offering multi-entity accounting capabilities at a lower price point. Moving on, there's talk of Anthropic's new Claude computing capability, EY's resignation as Super Micro Computer's auditor, and Google's declining search market share in the face of AI competition.SponsorsLiveFlow - http://accountingpodcast.promo/liveflowRelay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/relayCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casChapters(00:41) - Intuit Connect Recap (01:37) - Intuit CEO's Apology (09:32) - Intuit's Market Strategy (15:45) - Intuit Enterprise Suite Demo (30:00) - QuickBooks New Features (36:32) - Upcoming AI Webinar Announcement (37:06) - Feedback on AI Presentation (37:47) - The Future of Tax Preparation with AI (39:34) - AI in Action: Cloud Computer Use Demo (49:46) - Fraud in Political Campaigns (52:53) - Opportunities in Small Town Tax and Bookkeeping (57:08) - EY Resigns as Super Micro Auditor (01:07:39) - Conclusion and Upcoming Events (01:07:56) - Google's Ad Revenue Threatened by AI Show NotesEY resigns as Super Micro auditor, causes stock to fall 33%https://www.cnbc.com/2024/10/30/super-micro-auditor-resigns-after-raising-concerns-months-earlier.htmlIntuit Connect 2024: Sasan Goodarzi on AI & the Future of Accountinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xzKztkuhRYIntroducing computer use, a new Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and Claude 3.5 Haikuhttps://www.anthropic.com/news/3-5-models-and-computer-use'All hell has broken loose': Inside Elon Musk's high-stakes pro-Trump door-knocking efforthttps://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/elon-musks-high-stakes-trump-door-knocking-effort-america-pac-rcna176255BDO must face AmTrust investors' fraud case after US appeals court backtrackshttps://www.reuters.com/legal/government/column-bdo-must-face-amtrust-investors-fraud-case-after-us-appeals-court-2024-11-04/Google’s Grip on Search Slips as TikTok and AI Startup Mount Challengehttps://www.wsj.com/tech/online-ad-market-google-tiktok-9599d7e8Need CPE?Get CPE for listening to podcasts with Earmark: https://earmarkcpe.comSubscribe to the Earmark Podcast: https://podcast.earmarkcpe.comGet in TouchThanks for listening and the great reviews!

  • What Will Replace 150-Hour Rule? | EY CPAs Fired For Taking Too Much CPE

    What Will Replace 150-Hour Rule? | EY CPAs Fired For Taking Too Much CPE
    Oct 30 2024
    In this episode, Amber Setter returns to discuss the AICPA and NASBA's newly proposed competency-based pathway to CPA licensure, offering a 150-hour-rule alternative. They argue that the complexity of the plan might create more bureaucratic barriers rather than simplifying the process. There's also talk on the challenges facing the profession, including stagnant salaries and declining CPA numbers. Rounding out the show, they examine a recent story about EY firing employees for attending multiple online CPE courses at once.SponsorsLiveFlow - http://accountingpodcast.promo/liveflowZoho - http://accountingpodcast.promo/zohoCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casTabs - http://accountingpodcast.promo/tabsChapters(02:30) - Blake's Session on Automation Toolkit (05:11) - Sponsor Acknowledgements (05:34) - Discussion on AICPA and NASBA Competency Pathway (06:35) - Amber Setter's Insights on the Proposed Pathway (10:47) - Concerns and Practical Challenges (16:21) - Potential Impact on CPA Candidates (30:29) - Live Stream Viewer Comments and Questions (36:02) - Debating CPA Education Requirements (36:29) - Personal Journey to Becoming a CPA (37:18) - State Differences in CPA Experience Requirements (39:34) - NASBA's Influence on State Boards (41:47) - Challenges in CPA Firm Hiring Practices (42:38) - Value of Prior Work Experience (42:55) - Different CPA Licenses Across States (45:06) - Master's Degree in Accounting: Is It Worth It?
