Question

What jobs are available to someone with an associate degree in accounting, and how much can they make?

Answer 1

Bookkeeping positions, accounts payable, customer service clerks, things like that.  Pay depends highly on experience: with no experience you will start equivalent of around $10 / hour on average.  Working up with 5-10+ years at the right places you can get into lower 40k's.  Pretty much capped there unless you become entrepreneurial and open up your own business where the sky's the limit.  Otherwise, you're urged to get a bachelor's degree in accounting if you want to see yourself rise into middle or even executive management because it's not happening with just an associates degree earned.
