This paper reports on an investigation comparing the employment salary of bachelor degree in accounting graduates with associate degree in accounting graduates two years after their graduation. Using hierarchical regression analyses, this study shows the predictive strength of participants' academic qualifications, age, gender, GPA, professional qualifications, field of employment and type of employment on salary-level. Findings reveal that participants with a bachelor degree in accounting earn significantly more than those with an associate degree in accounting and that academic qualification, age, professional qualification and field of employment to be significant predictors of salary. Educational implications of these findings are discussed.
