Answer:

It makes for accountability in public accounts

Step-by-step explanation:

Article three 49a of Texas laws states that the comptroller of public accounts or treasury of the state must be made accountable at the end of every fiscal year by presenting a statement to show financial condition of treasury accounts to the governor and legislature for last fiscal year showing receipts and disbursements from the account. This ensures accountability as regards public accounts of the state
