Italiano term
debiti di cancelleria
Da Italiano a Inglese
Affari/Finanza
Contabilità/Amministrazione
This is part of a footnote from an academic document, describing a series of accounting tricks used to make documents unfathomable - the rest of the phrase is "ad esempio... con i preventivi di spesa assai inferiori alla realtà, con debiti definitivi presentati come debiti di cancelleria, con cifre ingrandite e rimpicciolite a piacimento ecc."
Any help would be much appreciated!

Discussion
Anyway, it does look like a passing reference. My suspicion is that the author is thinking in English with this word,but more info on the doc would help. Is it totally generic and academic, or does it relate to a specific industry or even a specific company. If so what does the company do, make stationery? You can see the whole picture, I can only see one tiny square of it.
