Accountancy is a field of study within commerce that originated in ancient civilizations and evolved significantly during the industrial age, becoming a key pillar of modern economic and business systems in the 21st century.
It is named after the term "account", which derives from the Latin word computer, meaning "to calculate" or "to reckon". Accountancy developed as a systematic method of recording, classifying, and summarizing financial transactions — helping individuals, businesses, and governments maintain transparency, financial control, and informed decision-making.
