Abstract:

CPA partners who were members of the AICPA were surveyed regarding the 150-hour rule to be licensed as a CPA. The survey explored CPA partners’ 1) educational path, 2) recommended classification of additional credits, 3) the key benefits of meeting the 150-hour rule, 4) specific courses recommended, and 5) opinion of completed courses. The majority recommended additional study in accounting and the key benefit was additional knowledge. Those subject to the 150-hour rule were more likely to complete a master’s degree or a double major and when asked which completed courses were worthwhile stated accounting courses 70% of the time.
