It depends on where you are in your career rite now..what is your current position and salary...Also, what city are you located in..$60,000 for a senior position seems low but we need more information to give you appropriate advice.

Good luck

Well, unfortunately, cos. try to compare your previous salary to decide on the new offer...but having said that 60k for a senior position in Philadelphia is low per standards...A senior position in DC pays atleast 75k and the cost of living is comparable..

They might have an argument that you dont have Public accounting experience and your curreny salary is low....you can counter that by saying you have a higher offer from other company...Having said that, it is the employers market rite...it is what it is..it is delicate balance and you want be careful in negotiating..you can keep this job and continue looking for a higher salary...you will then be able to negotiate better...

Good luck
