Answer 1 :
If you can replicate that kind of success at A-level, you should be condidering a top university. Even so, graduate accountants can expect to start at 18k. After full ACCA (or other chartered body) qualification, it will rise way into the 20's. And this is obtainable three years after graduation. Time and experience will naturally increase this, but it depends on who you work for and your level of competency.
Answer 2 :
depends on your position, industry, size of company - there is no one pay level for everyone with 5 yrs experience - some people get promoted after 5 yrs or move to better paying job offers from bigger companies, etc
