Thinking of Taking Control of Your Accounting Career?

We came across a website recently that listed the average CPA salary in the Philippines, around₱17,000/month for entry-leveland₱50,000/month for experienced professionals.

Surprised? Don’t be just yet. The data was based on only 182 uploaded salary profiles. Other sources might say something different. But regardless of the numbers, one thing’s for sure:The road to becoming a CPA in the Philippines isn’t easy.

The Numbers Behind the Struggle

TheCPA Licensure Examhas consistently ranked among thetop 5 hardest board examsin the country. Between1932 to 2017, the passing rate hovered around25%, and even in 2018, when it “spiked,” it only reached27%. Still tough, right?

Then came 2019, when the pass ratedropped to just 15%.

Yes, the exam is hard. But that steep decline could also be due to things like the quality of education, preparation time, or even just the stress and uncertainty that students face today.

So… Is the CPA Salary Worth All That?

We’re not saying that the harder the exam, the higher the salaryshouldbe, but let’s be honest. Considering the long nights, the years of study, and the mental gymnastics it takes to pass the CPA board,₱17K to ₱50K feels like it barely scratches the surfaceof what a CPA is truly worth.
