Accounting firms across the country are reporting strong revenue growth and continued increases in staff compensation at all levels, according to results from the AICPA’s 2025 National Management of an Accounting Practice (MAP) Survey.
The MAP survey, the largest benchmarking survey of public accounting practices in the U.S., includes responses from firms of all sizes, with 81% of the responses from those with revenue of $5 million and below.
The survey respondents reported a median 6.7% increase in total net client fees (firm revenue) over the prior year compared to the 2023 survey, which reported a median growth rate over the prior year of 9.1%.
Firms reported growth in revenue from audit & assurance and tax services, and the trend of growth in client accounting advisory revenue also continued from prior surveys. See more findings.
