According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook, there were more than 1.4 million accountants and auditors in 2019 (https://bit.ly/3DYhhSC). Based on the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) Accountancy Licensee Database (ALD) of CPAs, as of August 24, 2021, there are 669,130 actively licensed CPAs (https://nasba.org/licensure/howmanycpas/), approximately 48% of all accountants. Other researchers have estimated a substantially lower percentage. It would be natural to expect that any changes in certification testing or other requirements might have an effect on the number of CPAs.
