Becoming a Certified Management Accountant

The purpose of this panel is to describe the requirements of becoming a Certified Management Accountant (CMA). A CMA is one of many directions that an accountant can take. The CMA, unlike the CPA, is a worldwide licensure. In order to become a CMA several requirements must be met as well as a two part test. CMA’s are focused on cost accounting and the financial analysis. A CMA on average will earn 32% more than someone who is not certified and, on average, will make $105,850.

The Correlation Between Religious Faith and the Need for Closure

This purpose of this study was to find the correlation between an individual’s religious faith and their need for closure. A person’s need for closure directly corresponds to their need to reduce uncertainty. People are looking for answers to their questions, which then helps them reduce their uncertainty giving them a sense of satisfaction. This is backed by the most updated research from our text Close Encounters by Guerrero, et, and other database websites. Our hypothesis states people with a high level of religious faith will be more likely to have a lower need for closure in relationships. Upon completion of this study and final data compilation you will find that our study will lean considerably towards our hypothesis.
