Here’s a little more information about what you’ll find in the Future of Accountancy Report:

“The 2013 Intuit Future of the Accounting Profession Update provides a view of the significant demographic, economic, social and technology trends and forces that will affect the accounting and tax profession over the next decade. It was developed as a review of the trends projected in 2011 and to explore potential impacts on the forecast from changes that have occurred since then.

To prepare this forecast update, the Intuit Accounting Professional Division and Emergent Research conducted several forecast “think tanks” and interviews with accounting professionals, academics,
industry analysts and the media. Information collected through this research process was used to review and update the original 2011 forecast.”

And be certain to check out the 2020 Forecast for the Accounting Profession PDF as well:

“This report provides a view of the significant demographic, economic, social and technology trends and forces that will affect the accounting and tax profession over the next decade. The starting point for this forecast is the Intuit 2020 Report, released in October 2010, which identified 20 emerging trends and shifts that will shape business and society over the next decade.

To prepare this follow-up report, the Intuit Accounting Professional Division and Emergent Research conducted a series of forecast workshops, exercises, and interviews with accounting professionals,
academics, industry analysts and the media. These sessions identified the important trends and implications that will affect the accounting industry.”
