Morphology

accountantship = accountant (transparent) = account + ant + ship

The noun denotes the office, rank, or status formed by adding '-ship' to the clear base 'accountant', so the meaning is directly derived.

Etymology

The word accountantship is made from accountant (a person who 'counts' or keeps money records) plus the ending -ship, which means 'state' or 'position' as in friendship. So, accountantship is the 'position of being an accountant'.
