Accounting is the process of sending financial information about a business to the relevant users or organizations such as shareholders, creditors (including banks or retailers), financial analysts, economists and government entities. Accounting can be divided into two main categories: Accounting and Financial Management. Accounting managers focus on reporting to people within the business and provide information to employees, managers, owners, managers and auditors. The ultimate goal is to provide managers with the basis for making major decisions related to management and operations.
