Key Points

The American Accounting Association defines accounting as “the process of identifying, measuring and communicating economic information to permit informed judgements and decisions by users of the information.”

Accounting involves two main elements: (1) an information process summarizing financial events; and (2) a reporting system that communicates financial information to interested parties.

Double-entry bookkeeping first emerged in Northern Italy in the 14th century, where trading ventures began to require transactions that involved more than one investor.

Management (or internal) accounting and financial (or external) accounting are generally the two key branches of accounting.

Management accounting provides relevant and useful information to people inside the business, such as employees, managers, owners and auditors. It provides information for decision making and company strategy.

Financial accounting, on the other hand, also provides information to people outside the business, such as investors, regulators, analysts, economists, and government agencies.
