Certified Public Accountant (CPA) like bridgend accountants is a designation offered to qualified accountants, who have passed the Uniform Certified Public Accountant Examination in the United States and have the required state education and experience. The CPA license protects the public from inefficient individuals performing substandard accounting work. New York State passed the first Accountancy Law in 1896, in order to test the qualifications of public accountants. It led to the issuance of a state license to allow people to practice as certified public accountants. Accounting then emerged as a profession with licensing requirements, code of professional ethics and certain standards of the profession. Later, other states also followed this lead and eventually fifty-four states and jurisdictions enacted the public accounting legislation.
