| Abstract: | The information of business is not only being written on computers; it's also being written by them. Which is way accountants' professional future depends increasingly on fluency with this digital tool. Until recently, the major applications of computers have been relatively limited: They stored information, calculated spreadsheets, provided reports, prepared tax returns and sent and received messages. Today, the role of computer is expanding quickly in the communications arena: They are reaching out and receiving (or sending) information from multiple remote locations and then filtering, calculating and formatting it before distributing it to those who need it down the hall, across town or halfway around the world. |
