"The greatest honor history can bestow is the title of peacemaker."
I'm not an accounting major, but I took the basic accounting courses that were required for my business degree, and let me assure you that the math involved in these courses was just a step above high school algebra. You may have to take statistics as part of the business program, but checking the course prereqs at my college, no more math is needed for any ACC course. I'm a programmer and I have to say that the accounting courses were the dullest, easiest classes I've ever taken. I skipped nearly every class and came into the tests asked to balance this budget or preform some calculation on this set of numbers, and provided that I knew what the vocabulary word the prof threw at me was, the actual calculations were stupidly easy. Talking to the accounting majors who, presumably, like this kind of stuff, the classes get a bit harder and more rewarding, and everyone I've talked to wants to be a CPA, so it would seem that you'll be in luck.
