Accounts
Explanation:
Just that.
Cuentas contables is somehow redundant in Spanish. I'd drop "contables" and refer only to accounts, as the elements involved in financial statements (assets, liabilities, etc.).

Random House
ACCOUNT
Bookkeeping.
a. a formal record of the debits and credits relating to the person, business, etc., named at the head of the ledger account.
b. a balance of a specified period's receipts and expenditures.
