Arthur Cayley(Q159430), a British mathematician that is a contemporary of Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton(Q11887). Cayley has been credited for inventing matrix algebra.
Both Cayley and Hamilton had been inspired by Luca Pacioli's Double Entry Bookkeeping, where Cayley wrote a short pamphlet, named: "Principle of Double Entry Bookkepping"[1], and showed that balancing and keeping data consistent and honest being a mathematically interesting idea.
Fitzgerald's paper[2] on Quantum Information and Accounting Information: A Revolutionary Trend and the World of Topology explicitly referred to Cayley's interest in double entry bookkeeping and its connection to matrix algebra.
