As far as I know Arts is combining 3 subjects. So if you do Accounting in Arts, you study accounting plus two other subjects. It gives you a broad range of options to choose from and in 2nd year you can decide to change one of the subjects if you aren't enjoying it.

Hard to answer which is 'better'. Depends what you are looking for. Pure accountancy will probably give you a degree that is connected to the accountants association of Ireland or similar, whereas you may need further study after the arts degree. I am open to correction though.
