Account presented to member of clergy is absolutely correct (8)
I believe the answer is:
accurate
'absolutely correct' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'account presented to member of clergy' is the wordplay.
'account' becomes 'ac'.
'presented to' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'member of clergy' becomes 'curate' (I've seen this before).
'ac'+'curate'='ACCURATE'
'is' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for accurate that I've seen before include "Exactly right" , "Meticulous" , "telling it like it is" , "Precise, correct" , "Precise and exact (8)" .)
