Canada: Accounting industry grows

The country's accounting industry continued its strong growth in 2006, Statistics Canada said yesterday. The federal agency said accounting operating revenues grew 12.1 per cent to $11.1 billion in 2006. That followed 13.7- per-cent growth the previous year. Most of the revenues in 2006 came from traditional accounting services such as auditing and assurance (30 per cent), taxation (25 per cent), and bookkeeping and payroll (11 per cent).
