Following an old suggestion of mine, Greg Stafford has adopted double-entry
bookkeeping as a cult secret of Etyries, and this appears in the Rough Guide
to Glamour.

Note that Lunars use red and black inks the other way around in their
ledgers -- they always want to lift their business "out of the black" and
"back into the red". (Cf. also my "Letter from a Monopolist" in Tales #16
for the criminal "blue market"...)
