Why: With no child occupations seeded, this score is derived directly from the APQC process name and lens. The PCF category 'Perform general accounting and reporting' and the description emphasizing 'recording and preparing final accounts' and 'using accounting information' point exclusively to knowledge work. Because the process centers entirely on information transformation and financial data management, it firmly supports a high digital scalar.
