Hello may I know how often will Khan Academy provide new subjects? Do share a link if you have a historical record and I will try to predict. Another question would be, is it possible for GAAP subjects be taught here in the future? I would love to learn accounts, but the economics part doesn't cover much of it... Knowledge is so scarce when you can't find the right source...But I find Khan Academy the best conveyer and teacher available. Best wishes to Khan Academy.

Hi KatRoseAngel! It's wonderful having a reply from the support advocate!

I made a post just now and from what I see most people are concerned about the features rather than content (base on what I search(Bias)) having over a hundred votes vs the latter only having 12 post(now with mine 13) with a poor 0~4 votes!

I believe a lot of people haven't see this hidden gem in your team! Accounting is just everywhere, like maths! In fact the father of accounting Luca Paciolli is the best friend of our famous Industrial revolution friend, Leonardo da Vinci!

No government or company even Khan Academy doesn't need accounting for! If Khan and his team noticed this they would know this subject is of paramount to mathematics! I guess it is because Khan himself never took up an accounting knowledge or it is rather complicated but what precious knowledge isn't?

If Khan Academy manage to do this, then this website has the potential to save the amount of future generations more than real tuition providers such as Kaplan and BPP which requires you to pay. It cannot be compared to the style of Khan Academy, this is golden.

Btw I am not asking for myself, I have the same goals as Khan Academy, I am already taking an accounting course called ACCA, hence I am asking on behalf of the future generations!

Please consider my belief and proposal! Thankyou for your time! Best wishes for Khan Academy! For the greater good!
