It's a lot more complex than that- sometimes you find people with an accounting degree working a finance job. The really good finance jobs often require an MBA and are harder to get because there is so much competition, in part due to the prestige being greater in high finance than in accounting. It might also depend on where you want to live, and if you want public sector work an accounting degree is better.
It's also possible in many cases to double major in both at the undergrad level, or you could get a bachelor's degree in one discipline and a masters degree in the other, a decision that would likely be affected by your career path after getting the bachelor's.
In sum, it's too hard to answer that without more info.
