It's not that one certification is better than the other. Enrolled Agents are strictly focused on taxes which gives them an advantage in that area, while the CPA covers a broader area.

It really comes down to the individual's ability. Just based off of the certification, I would go with an EA for taxes, a CPA for financial reporting, a CMA for internal decision making, a CIA for auditing, and a CFE for investigating employee fraud.

What is an EA in accounting?

EA stands for Enrolled Agent. It is a certification by the Internal Revenue Service that someone is qualified to practice before them. To become an EA, one must pass a test given by the IRS, the purpose of which is to try to ensure that only qualified people practice before the IRS.
