45 Question 3 “The wide use of computer accounting software makes the understanding of accounting less important.” Do you agree or disagree with that statement, and why? Answers will vary. While computerized accounting programs make the posting and entry of accounting transactions faster and eliminate errors in transferring data from the journal to the ledger, this does not mean that an understanding of accounting is less important. It can be argued that it is more important in this case to have a sound understanding of accounting principles to be able to follow what is happening in the business transaction so a person can determine whether it has been entered correctly.
