In an ICAP registered audit firm (after completing ACCA exams), you may get paid the ICAP recommended stipend roughly equal to ACA trainees, or even higher, since in some cases the higher stipend is an incentive to retain you and you have proven your abilities to them.
If you dont get ICAP registration then smaller firms have a tendency to mistrust you, because ACCA's have a tendency to go for employment when they get the chance and appear less committed to most hiring principals in the audit profession. Hence, principals feel reluctant to invest critical responsibilities in ACCA trainees, when the ACCA could leave at any time (there is no such thing as NOC required), and this has happened before my eyes.
In consultancy firms and the industry ACCA part completed earn anywhere from 8k-25k, based on your examination status and how well you present yourself, even if you are fresh having no experience.
With a little experience, of course your pricing increases...and by the time you fully qualify with completed training and ACCA membership you may well be hitting 50k+ depending on your abilities.
