The accounting profession is undergoing
significant changes, an example of this can be
the CPA reforms in the CPA exam pattern. The
recent updates to the CPA exam demonstrate that
the 100-plus-year-old licensing standard now
places greater importance on business processes,
automation, and data analytics, and emphasizes
the need for a digital and data-driven mindset.
Here are 5 accounting trends to watch in 2023

Increased Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
AI is transforming the way accounting tasks are
performed, including automating repetitive tasks,
analyzing large data sets, and identifying
anomalies in financial data.
4
Rise of Blockchain Technology
Blockchain technology is gaining popularity in
the accounting industry, as it provides a secure
and transparent way of recording financial
transactions, reducing the need for
intermediaries and enhancing efficiency.
5
Demand for Sustainability Reporting
As consumers and stakeholders increasingly demand
transparency and accountability from businesses,
there is a growing need for sustainability
reporting, which measures and discloses a
company's environmental, social, and governance
(ESG) performance.
6
Emphasis on Data Analytics
Data analytics is becoming an essential skill for
accountants, as it helps them to extract insights
from large data sets, identify trends and
patterns, and make informed business decisions.

Accounting Standards
Throughout the year, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issues accounting
standards updates about changes that could affect
financial statements and how to keep them GAAP
compliant. The exam has also phased out certain
topics, including testing on the differences
between IFRS and GAAP standards, and specialized
knowledge on estate taxes and trusts.
