One approach is to use the Slurm sreport tool which displays the account 
hierarchy tree:

$ sreport -t hourper --tres=cpu,gpu cluster AccountUtilizationByUser 
Start=0501 End=0528 format=Accounts,Login,Proper%30,TresName%9,Used  tree

I think you could perhaps also be inspired by this example:

$ scontrol -o show assoc_mgr users=XXX account=camdvip flags=Assoc
Current Association Manager state
Association Records

The line with UserName= (empty string) is the parent account.

I'm using this approach to print user limits in my showuserlimits tool,

I hope this helps.
