How much can the owner of a CPA firm make? I'm planning to get the CPA license and start my own small CPA firm. I want to hire bookkeepers and outsource the work overseas to save on overhead costs. I already have a large family of about 80 people, so I believe I can make at least 100 clients in my first year and do their taxes.
Answer Wiki. There are no independent variables in observational studies. In an observational study, the researcher compares subjects against a control group and comes to a conclusion. Hypothetical example: if we have a research study comparing the risk of developing liver cancer between (1) people who drink some alcohol daily, and (2) teetotalers.
The independent variable is the variable that the researcher manipulates in the experiment. This variable will then be hypothesized in order to influence the dependent variable. The independent variable has a big effect on the entire experiment, and is very important in drawing the conclusion of the experiment.
