Dialogue A
(I= Interviewer 主试人  A= Applicant 受试人)

(knocking at the door gently)

I:Come in,please.

A:Good afternoon,sir.My name is Wang Ling.

I:Good afternoon,Miss Wang.According to your application form,you are a university graduate in accounting and have al-ready got 2 year's work experience in a manufacturing factory.Now,can you tell me what made you decide to leave your former factory and apply for the vacancy here?

A:Well,my  former  working  unit  is  a  medium-sized  enterprise.Though  I  am  familiar  with computerized accounting systems,I can find no application there.That's the reason why I want to come here to face the new challenge.

I:What are your responsibilities at you present work unit?

A:My  work  involves  various  routine  bookkeeping  and  basic  ac-counting  tasks  including  journal entries,verifying data and reconciling discrepancies,preparing detailed reports from raw data,
and checking accounting documents for completeness,mathematical accuracy and consistency.

I:Are you familiar with PRC Financial Accounting and Tax Regulations?

A:Sure.

I:OK.Can you tell me something about this balance sheet now?


A:Of course.This balance sheet contains three major sections,that is,assets,liabilities and owner's equity.So,you see,the total current 1iabilities of your company are  $2,372,000,and owner's equity is  $  5,400,000.That means that the total assets,which is equal to the sum of the creditor's and the owner's equities,are  $  7,772,000.

I:What are they?

A:Such as paper money,coins,checks,money orders,bank deposits and so on.

I:What should we do when dealing with cash?

A:As a rule,we should control the handling and recording of cash.Cash should be handled separately from the recording of cash transactions so that errors can be readily disclosed and the possibility of irregularities is reduced.

I:How does it work,then?

A:That means all cash receipts are deposited intact in the bank,and all major payments are made by check and an imprest fund is used for petty cash disbursements.

I:So you mean that we can have a double record of cash transactions.

A:Yes.One record is made by the company's recordkeeping procedures,and another is furnished by the bank.

I:Did you get a good record in English?

A:Yes,I obtained nearly full marks each term.I like English very much.Besides,I was aware of the importance of learning English well.Nowadays every enterprise would prefer to hire a man who has a good command of English.So I worked hard at college on English.

I:Are you familiar with America-styled accounting?

A:I think so.When I was at college,I worked as an assistant account with American General Electric China Inc.for two summers.

I:That's very good.You seem to have the right kind of experience.I'll let you know the result of this interview next week.

A:Thank you.Good-Bye.

Dialogue A
(I= Interviewer 主试人  A= Applicant 受试人)

(knocking at the door gently)

I:Come in,please.

A:Good afternoon,sir.My name is Wang Ling.

I:Good afternoon,Miss Wang.According to your application form,you are a university graduate in accounting and have al-ready got 2 year's work experience in a manufacturing factory.Now,can you tell me what made you decide to leave your former factory and apply for the vacancy here?

A:Well,my  former  working  unit  is  a  medium-sized  enterprise.Though  I  am  familiar  with computerized accounting systems,I can find no application there.That's the reason why I want to come here to face the new challenge.

I:What are your responsibilities at you present work unit?

A:My  work  involves  various  routine  bookkeeping  and  basic  ac-counting  tasks  including  journal entries,verifying data and reconciling discrepancies,preparing detailed reports from raw data,
and checking accounting documents for completeness,mathematical accuracy and consistency.

I:Are you familiar with PRC Financial Accounting and Tax Regulations?

A:Sure.

I:OK.Can you tell me something about this balance sheet now?


A:Of course.This balance sheet contains three major sections,that is,assets,liabilities and owner's equity.So,you see,the total current 1iabilities of your company are  $2,372,000,and owner's equity is  $  5,400,000.That means that the total assets,which is equal to the sum of the creditor's and the owner's equities,are  $  7,772,000.

I:Just a moment.What is the creditor's equity?

A:The creditor's equity is the same as liabilities.

I:How much are accrued salaries payable?

A:They are  $  15,000.

I:Could you tell me something about cash control?

A:Yes,of course.In accounting,cash means all items that are acceptable for deposit in a bank.

I:What are they?

A:Such as paper money,coins,checks,money orders,bank deposits and so on.

I:What should we do when dealing with cash?

A:As a rule,we should control the handling and recording of cash.Cash should be handled separately from the recording of cash transactions so that errors can be readily disclosed and the possibility of irregularities is reduced.

I:How does it work,then?

A:That means all cash receipts are deposited intact in the bank,and all major payments are made by check and an imprest fund is used for petty cash disbursements.

I:So you mean that we can have a double record of cash transactions.

A:Yes.One record is made by the company's recordkeeping procedures,and another is furnished by the bank.

I:Did you get a good record in English?

A:Yes,I obtained nearly full marks each term.I like English very much.Besides,I was aware of the importance of learning English well.Nowadays every enterprise would prefer to hire a man who has a good command of English.So I worked hard at college on English.

I:Are you familiar with America-styled accounting?

A:I think so.When I was at college,I worked as an assistant account with American General Electric China Inc.for two summers.

I:That's very good.You seem to have the right kind of experience.I'll let you know the result of this interview next week.

A:Thank you.Good-Bye.
