    " I've heard that accountants think that they have super powers,?"

    I used to work at a mining company that had 4 operating mines. Part of our pay package was a bonus of up to 15%/month based on production, costs and safety performance.

    The "Head Office" used to get the bonus too.... except they didn't get 15%. Oh no.... they got the combined bonus of all the mines. Not Average, but Combined. If in a given month all the mines got 15%, the "Head Office" got a 60% bonus.

    The had a rude shock when we merged with another company to form a new mining house.

    The new Board issued an internal statement "From now on they will no longer be called the "Head Office". They don't make the money, they just count the money." No more 60% bonus when we got 15%. No more 3 day annual cruise in the Whitsundays when all we got was an annual BBQ. A few of the accountants left in a huff. We just hired new ones.
