Accountants are responsible for four core functions: general accounting; auditing; assurance; and tax. There are also many other specialized functions such as environmental accounting and litigation consulting. The number and types of services that can be offered by accounting firms can change as quickly as the overall business climate. Supporting accountants and auditors are a variety of departments and workers, including those in information technology, human resources, legal affairs, strategic learning, administrative services and executive support, communications/public relations, marketing, business development, and risk management.
