It depends on the caliber of the accountant/accounting firm and the complexity of the work.
Generally, for very easy, routine work, and the cheapest accountants in town - you could expect to pay between $40 and $75 per hour.
For moderate work, with an established firm - base rates start at $85 per hour, and CPA and manging partner rates are about $120 per hour.
For work done by the best of the best — a Big 4 Firm, expect to pay at least $180 per hour.
To give you an idea of time— A basic personal income tax return takes about 90 min- 2 hours.
Accounting for an estate - if an attorney or the executor do all the legwork and have all the necessary documents - could take between 4 and 20 hours of work. This depends on the complexity of the estate as well.
