In all that accounting money is just seen straightforward as money, how to calculate your taxes, how much a good and service is worth, how you spend and save your money and record it and income in the books. Not that income is of different worth and not in parallel with money. All accounting I learned money is a straight value and of equal worth everywhere. I guess Ive heard it from a political point of view now because I took taxes in college too and never heard it. I learned auditing, about supply and demand studying for my cpa- never heard any of that else before. In all that accounting I’ve learned all of money is a straight worth including earned from income. Retained earnings, profit. I’ve done payroll, night auditing for a hotel. Bank recs, accounts payable and receivable. All the vendors and clients I worked with saw income as a straight value of money for themselves. Never knew income is a different value than money unlike cost of goods and services. I don’t know how many other people see it like that either like me. The money I’ve earned I’ve always seen it directly from the hours I’ve worked and how I got my jobs because of my education and experience over time. Maybe it’s different for my employers and businesses.
