Becoming a CPA may be one of the most challenging career tracks but it is also one of the most rewarding. CPA is the highest accounting qualification in the US and is accepted globally.
1) The official name of the CPA Exam is the Uniform CPA Examination. The examination is same for all the 55 US jurisdictions (State Boards of Accountancy). The eligibility varies from state to state. Commerce graduate/ Cost Accountants/ Chartered Accountants are generally eligible for Delaware, Colorado and other few states.
2) The fees for all the four parts of CPA exam is $1,000 approx, it varies little bit from state to state.
3) The CPA exam is a total of 14 hours long computer based exam and is divided into four sections. You can take exam in any order and must pass within 18 months window.
