No - Accounting is a science. Just as mathematics is. Now, perhaps creative or rather less then straightforward accounting may be considered an 'art' but with no more credibility than a cat burglar considers his singular skill to be.
Both scientific art and artistic science.
Management is both science and art. Science because it uses figures, graphs and other statistical methods in order to solve organisational problems. Art because it uses skills, experiences, and attitudes, not hard and fast rules, to solve organisational goals.
By photo or in a copying machine. ________________________________________________________________________ no, i mean, how do you find the science in a piece of art, how do i look at the piece of art in a scientific fashion. I'm doing a science/art fair project for school due this Wednesday, and i need to know how to depict my art using science. I'm going to have a short paragraph under every piece of art i do talking about what science is used in my pieces of art, and I'm gonna have a couple of other paragraphs explaining how science is used in art. My project is going to be the science of art ;p

Accounting is not a science because it can be easily adjusted to achieve a favorable result. In mathematics, to solve the equation x-1=2, you have to solve it the way you're supposed to, or else you won't get the correct result. There is not much room for creativity. In accounting, however, there are many ways to "cook the book". For example, to accurately reflect the ability of a company to create value for its owners, the stockholders, accounting is mostly accrual basis, which means that you record revenues when you earn them and not when you receive cash as in cash-basis accounting, which is generally not accepted in preparing financial statements. But in accounting there exist methodologies such as the mark-to-market accounting that allows a company to record future profits on the very day a deal is signed. No matter how little cash actually comes in the door, to the outside world and to investors the company's profits can be whatever the company claims them to be. Think about the many cases of accounting scandal and fraud to see why accounting is not exactly a science. Science is a body of reliable knowledge that can be logically and rationally explained. Accounting doesn't always satisfy these criteria. It is more like an art, the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination.
