How much do tax pros make?
Answer:
It varies by region, firm, expertise and experience. The previous answer fit the span pretty well.
Call H&R Block or some other tax prep company.
Depends on where they work
Depends on your experience. When I started doing taxes (18, no experience), my boss paid me $6.00/hr + 5% bonus(about $15,000.00 a yr.) I am going for my EA this year and once I get that, I expect to make a minimum of $20.00 per hour plus a 10% bonus (About $50,000 a yr.)
No offense in case anybody out there works for H&R Block, but they are not "tax pros." An experienced CPA can make well over 100,000 per year. A few years ago at Ernst & Young, (the country's 3rd largest accounting firm) the average partner salary was 450,000.
A tax professional at the top of the class (an actual professional with a graduate degree and a CPA certification - not a tax "preparer") will currently come out of school to offers between $50 and $60k in Florida.
Going forward from that first year our firm is doing raises between 10 and 20% based on billable hours and in what type of tax you specialize. We also get a percent of all clients that we bring to the firm.
