Yep, this is for my corporate accounting compatriots. Here are some of the things I love about my job as the Controller:
1) Month-end closing
2) Payroll
3) Sales tax
4) Quarterly payroll tax/unemployment reporting
5) Sales tax reporting
6) Financial analysis/swings in revenue/expenses
7) Accruals
8) Commissions/bonuses
9) Year-end Audits - I actually like our auditor. We're his favorite client (so he says, but then again, I make his job easy)
10) Bank reconciliations
11) Account reconciliations
12) Depreciation/amortization
13) Property tax renditions
14) AR/AP Agings
15) Pivot tables - Yes, I really do love pivot tables.
16) New customer credit checks
17) Collections - ok, really, I hate collections, I'm just good at it.
18) Municipal business license filings
19) Foreign transactions & VAT
20) Expense report audits
21) Cash apps/Cash forecasting (forgot this one)
Feel free to add to the list folks.
