Accounting Department

The Accounting Department was s a department in the Ministry of Magic, presumably a sub-division of another department, such as the Central Department.

Duties
This department was tasked with processing and overseeing financial information and Ministry budgets, which, presumbaly included the Wizardry Budget and the Hexing Tax. Since Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry were government founded, it also presumably was involved in determining how much gold the Ministry could provide the Hogwarts Board of Governors with each year..

History
At some point in late 1991, the Wizardry Budget was leaked to the public,

During the 2010s, an interdepartmental memo written by an Auror, Grim Fawley, was sent to and subsequently filed with the Accounting Department regarding the closing of an investigation into the whereabouts of his wife for financial reasons, insisting that the numbers they provided was inconsistent with the actual costs of the investigation. This memo was not replied to.
