- Source: FEC.gov itemized individual contribution aggregates. Not independent expenditures.
CPA as occupation, AICPA PAC as recipient
CPA is the occupation string as stored. The recipient is C00077321, AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE. Accountant is a different key if stored separately. Matching rows sum to $5,337,935 across 22,102 contributions. The occupation hub is $44,519,078 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only CPA. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.
About 12.0% of a large CPA occupation total on 22,102 lines is a trade-PAC cell, not the occupationâs only destination. The join key is the occupation string plus committee ID C00077321. It is not a finding that a trade association, employer, or candidate bundled the gifts. Filers listed CPA; the receipts are attributed to C00077321 in this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll.
A minority share of a large CPA grouping
The CPA occupation grouping shows $44,519,078 in itemized individual money. The AICPA PAC cell is $5,337,935, or 12.0% of that total. The remaining $39,181,143 went to committees other than C00077321. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder.
Cpa keeps the $44,519,078 grouping and its other recipients. AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE keeps C00077321 volume from every occupation. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupationâcommittee cells so this join is not mistaken for a company PAC or for independent expenditures.
22,102 contributions and a ~$241 mean
AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE received $5,337,935 from CPA-coded receipts across 22,102 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $242 per contribution. 22,102 lines are not 22,102 unique people. Repeat givers, multiple earmarks, and cycle stacking raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure for this cell.
The source note is explicit: these figures are FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee, not independent expenditures. Committee-to-committee transfers and unitemized gifts are outside the $5,337,935 total.
CPA titles versus firm PACs and USAspending
A 12.0% share of CPA-coded dollars into C00077321 does not mean the occupation caused an election outcome, and it does not mean AICPA PAC is the occupationâs only political destination. Occupation and committee are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards.
Quote $5,337,935 as 12.0% of $44,519,078 into C00077321, with 22,102 itemized lines, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Do not add sibling occupation keys. Do not fold independent expenditures into the cell. Do not treat 22,102 contributions as a headcount of people currently holding the job.
How to cite CPA Ă C00077321
A complete claim names CPA and AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE (C00077321), then $5,337,935, 22,102 contributions, and 12.0% of $44,519,078, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. The occupation hub still holds $39,181,143 outside this committee. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the committee, not either hub restated.
Occupation hub, AICPA overlay, and Accountant as a sibling
A state accountancy-board roster or a firm PAC would be a different object. This join stops at itemized individual receipts tagged CPA and attributed to C00077321. All occupations ranks sibling titles. All FEC ties lists other occupationâcommittee pages. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Mean gift $242 is $5,337,935 divided by 22,102 lines, and the occupation remainder outside C00077321 is $39,181,143.
Repeat the four numbers together: $5,337,935 into C00077321, 22,102 contributions, 12.0% of $44,519,078, committee AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE. That sentence is the join. It is not a company treasury and not a federal award total.
