I am a Pakistani living in USA. I completed my CPA and interned with Big 4. I have also have 2 years of general ac****ing experience. I have NO IDEA what is accounting profession like in pakistan. I have heard of CA, ACCA and terms like these but don't really understand what they mean. Can someone PLEASE help me in knowing what is the difference between CA and CPA, and is CPA applicable in PAK or not. I know only that in PAK u guys do follow GAAS, however I think u go with internal standards versus GAAP here in the U.S. I want to move back to my country, but I need information on my career... what are the salaries like but most importantly what is equivalent of a CPA in Pakistan? anyone who has information can post here or email me at beenish_1@hotmail.com much appreciated!
