Will you please specify what you mean here, my friend. Are you looking for someone who is commerce graduate or in the field of commerce...?
I am not familiar with what you say rocket science. What I know is that commerce is not a form of science but business or merchants...
Have a great day!

Hello Mountcarmel
I have completed a bachelors degree in Accounting and finance :). Accounts is definately interesting if you are good with figures and numbers, Besides if you love to prepare budgets or enjoy preparing statements of income and expenses, accounts should definately interest you. Besides accounting includes different types subjects and you can specialise in one further after your bachelors. The subjects Include:-
1Taxation:- Deals with topics related to Calculation of TAXABLE INCOME and much more.
2Cost accounting:- Deals with "PER UNIT COST" Of a certain product, Cutting down costs of productions and stuff.
3Financial accounting:- Deals with making financial statements of company/partnership/jointventure/amalgamation accounts.
4Auditing:- Deals with Audits conducted in companies, vouching of documents, verifying books of accounts, adhering to accounting Standards Etc.
I find Cost and financial accounting deal with practical accounting and preparing statements, whereas Taxation and Audit have huge theories involved as well, more so in Audit. Taxation is very interesting though :).
thank you.
