My favorite academic subject is mathematics. Mathematics has influenced me by teaching me that no matter how many problems there is in life you will get through it as long as you try. Basically trying your hardest for anything will end up to being successful . Nobody is perfect in the world there will be mistakes in life but as long as you keep trying you’ll get through it. I have sticked with all of these encouragement because I never got it at home. Learning math has taught me a lot. Life has lot of challenges, but as long as you have a goal you will achieve. Having something to look forward to equals to success. Math is used a lot in life. Therefore wherever you want to apply a job it would mostly involves math. For example, if you wanted to be a cashier it involves counting which is math or maybe a doctor , it also involves math because you would have to prescribe medication to your patients or if you're doing surgery you would have to measure how much to cut/remove any parts. In my opinion math is the easiest subject in school. Math is like life. As in life will give you problems and you have to take steps to solve your problems. Life is very difficult but it doesn't give you an excuse for giving up. It should be a wake up call to make you try harder. People that dont try in life don't succeed.

Accounting is the language of business. It is a profession that is being guided by principles, concepts, conventions, laws, etc. All these fundamental building blocks serve as common and general compasses to all practitioners of the profession. In some cases, they are nation-wide tailored, while in other cases, they are universally tailored.

Surely, any endeavour that involves monetary and material activities create a room for the services of Accounting. Many of the human endeavours for which the accounting profession plays significant (some times inevitable) roles include; Banking, Insurance, Manufacturing, Farming Contracting, Oil and Gas, Mining, Transportation (Air, Land and Sea), Educational Institutions, Churches, Ministries, ICT, Hire Purchase, Local Government Authorities, Estate Businesses, Export and Import Businesses, Bill of Exchange Transactions, Royalties Transactions, Consignment Transactions, Stock Market Transactions, Sports, Entertainment, Hospitals and Hospitality Industry, etc.
