Its quite simple although may vary from situation to situation. Accounting or Finance Dept are responsible for maintiaing Accounting and Financial activity of the organisation. So they are the one's who have the better understanding of accounting practices within the organisation.

Yes, they design and implement the policies.

But those polcies has to be set or designed in line with the Strategic Goals set by the top management.
