* "Account" is not the same as "user" in this context. Your firm or organization has a contract with ACENET (or you probably wouldn't be reading this.) On Siku, that contract is represented by an "account" with a name like "pd-abc-123".
* "QoS" stands for "Quality of Service", but it might be better to think of a "QoS" as a software object which remembers how many CPU hours etc. an account is allowed to use, and how much has been used already. Each paid account is associated with its own QoS, and the QoS has the same name as the account, like "pd-abc-123".
* "Billing units" measure the use of the system. One CPU-minute is worth one billing unit; 4G of and associated RAM for one minute is also worth one billing unit. A GPU-minute is worth 35 billing units. See below for a formula, and examples.
