cima deals with decision making, acca mainly concerned with audit,, so an acca can be an auditor, but not a decision maker,, however cima can do both jobz

Shehzad, I have neither the time nor the inclination to get into some pathetic sparing match with you. Grow up.

However, I will says this -

Until you make some informed comments with clear evidence of research, I will continue proclaiming your amateurish critiques of leftwing ideologies for what they are; uneducated rants, of those who are arrogant enough to think that they can attack what they do not understand. I will also continue to provide you with a bibliography, for whatever subject you happen to be butchering at the time, until you show that you are capable of making coherent well thought out argument, and not just spew antiquated rhetoric.

generally, even if cima,s r not allowed to do audits,, they r good auditors,, as well as best management accountants in the world,,
on the other side,, acca,s just do audit,, just checking of accounts,, simplest work
and according to the management accounting point of view, cima is most valuable from other degrees like,icmap,cma,sma
and acca, is even worst than the pakistani ca,,and just like certification

<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></font id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">I can appreciate your sentiments here. Howver, some of us have heard certain arguments, assertions, claims, hypotheses, parables, etc. so many times that we forget that the persons making the statements may be unfamiliar with their refutations. As a result, responding to certain assertions is often whittled down to a terse one-liner which may come across as crass or mocking.

hi friends
This is my first reply on this forum. I have been watching the statements posted by different members at times.I dont like the way every time u ppl compare different fields like CA & ACCA or CIMA & ACCA or ICMAP for that matter.
we ppl should admit that every field is the best if we r comitted to it.
bye

<br />Well you see the point is the difference in the subjects between ACCA and CIMA as ACCA is Financial and Auditing side, CIMA is Finance and Management side which makes it an important part of the Management Team of an organisation.The Management side of CIMA is so strong that the Final Level of CIMA contains four subjects compromising of Management Accounting.

ITS NOT WHAT YOU STUDY , ITS HOW YOU STUDY IT.
<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></font id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"> CIMA is more commonly used in industry, ACCA in private practise, although not exclusively.Im qualified ACCA and work in practice (but originally worked in industry). ACCA is geared for practice and industry whereas CIMA is mainly aimed at Industry only as they do not issue Practicising Certificates. ACA (also known as ICAEW) is mainly practice orientated. ACCA allows you flexibility to work in both practice and industry as the qualification integrates the two - however a syllabus change is imminent in 2007 but the practice/industry focus will still be there.

CIMA is the preferred qualification with employers in industry/commerce. CIMA to award a practising certificate to members allowing them to work/'promote' themeselves as Chartered Management Accountnats, though its not an audit qualification. CIMA members working in practice tend to do so in financial and business management consultancy.
