Questions & Answers about Es lógico que el contador revise el ingreso de ayer.

Why is the verb revise in the subjunctive instead of the indicative revisa?
The phrase Es lógico que (It is logical that) is an impersonal expression that states an opinion or evaluation. In Spanish, when you express an opinion or judgment about an action using [Ser] + [adjective] + que, the verb that follows must be in the subjunctive. That is why we use revise instead of the normal present tense revisa.
I learned that "accountant" is contable. Is contador just a synonym?
They mean the same thing, but it depends on the region. In Latin America, contador (or contadora for a woman) is the standard word for an accountant. Contable is definitely understood, but it is much more commonly used in Spain.
Does ingreso only mean "income"?
No, ingreso is a very useful vocabulary word with a few meanings. It comes from the verb ingresar (to enter or deposit). While it means "income" or "revenue" in a business context, it can also mean "entry" or "admission" (like into a hospital or university), or a "deposit" into a bank account.
Why isn't there a "personal a" before el contador since he is a person?
You only use the "personal a" when a specific person is the direct object of a verb (the one receiving the action). In this clause (que el contador revise...), the accountant is the subject—he is the one doing the reviewing. Therefore, no "personal a" is needed.
