    elephant215 just posted what is the salary for entry lvl in accounting at LA, I see some replies saying it should be around 50k-60k for entry lvl, but I have used glassdoor and payscale, the average salary for accountant position is around 60k. I am just wondering how do you guys get the more accurate salary information. Right now I am living in SF-Oakland-Fremont average, doing GL accountant, and the salary is little bit more than 60k (Total 3 years accounting experience). Am I doing okay so far? I don’t need to be above, but I don’t want to be paid under average either. And I am interested in the job description of cost accountant. I have no problem to work in a manufacturing environment. I would like to become a cost accountant when I have enough accounting experience to help me get some cost accounting position interviews. Could anyone give me some insight about cost accountant. Does cost accountant pay little bit more than GL accountant? And what is the working hour for cost accountant per week. Thank you so much.
