CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1     Background of the Study

Working capital management in cooperative business is concerned with the management of the enterprise current account which encompasses current asset and current liabilities. The management of Working Capital in Cooperatives is one of the most special aspects of industrial overall financial management. If the cooperative enterprise cannot maintain a satisfactory level of working capital, it is likely to become bankrupt. The current asset of the cooperative enterprise should be large enough to cover its current liabilities in order to maintain a reasonable margin of financial safety. Working capital management in Cooperative deals with actual management of current asset and current liabilities in the enterprise.

Working Capital can be defined as the excess of current asset over current liabilities. Onuoha(2009). Basically, there are four conventional class of current asset which are cash, inventories, marketable securities and account recurable while current liability entail account payable, accruals and taxes working capital is used to finance production to invert in stock and to provide credit to customers. A deeper understanding of the importance of working capital by a cooperative society and it’s satisfactory management can lead not only to efficiency of capital management but also assist in fulfilling the ultimate aim of the cooperative business such as increasing surpluses, maximizing cost and return on cooperative investment.

Consequently, the extent to which working capital management affect cooperative efficiency is the thrust of this study.

  • Statement of the Problem

Working capital is the live wire of any enterprise which means that its management is quite crucial to the business. Cooperative societies of whatever type survive with efficient working capital management. The capital of the cooperative enterprise has to be effectively managed for the benefit of the cooperative business so that stated objectives can be achieved. Given every stage and level of cooperative activities, finance tends to play a significant role in the efficiency of the enterprise.

Many cooperative businesses may have adequate finance but could lack proper efficient working capital management. It is disheartening to discover that several cooperative societies seem not be performing up to expectation even in the light of apparent effective and efficient working capital management on cooperative efficiency so that informed measures could be taken to facilitate efficient working capital management in cooperatives in such a way that the cooperative business can effectively achieve stated objectives for the benefit of the members. Consequently, how working capital management affects cooperative efficiency and the modalities that could ensure effective working capital management to promote cooperative business is the thrust of the study.

  • Objectives of the Study

The objectives of this study are to:

  1. Find out how working capital management affects cooperative efficiency.
  2. Determine the extent of member’s participation in working capital management in cooperatives.

Find out the modalities in ensuring…

CHAPTER ONE

  • INTRODUCTION

The thrift and Credit cooperative has been formed with intention of improving the standard of living. The thrift and credit society started in Germany under the leadership of Fredrick Ra’ffeisen in the year 1818 who is now regarded as the father of modern cooperative thrift and credit society.

 

Germany has always been referred to as the cradle of credit cooperative. At that time, the economic condition of Germany was so deplorable and the peasantry and artisans fiet crushed under the heavy weight of indebtedness. Famine was a common phenomenon used as order of the day. The Jews ruled over the market and the poor labourers and farmers had no way out, except to buy articles of their need from them and sales their product to them. The merchants were money lenders changing very high rate of interest for the credit they gave and offered ridiculously prices for the produce they purchased. With the hopeless life of the peasantry, Raiffeisen emerged to help them out of their indebtedness and poverty years, therefore thought out plan for cooperative societies.

 

Before the advert of modern cooperative society the thrift and credit society serve at urban area, the traditional mutual system is been called and addressed by different name by various communities who practice it inform of traditional form of saving.

 

The Hausa call it “Adashe” “Bashi” in Nupe “Asusu in Ogogo etoto in Ibibio etc.” The traditional systems of cooperative leaders of the society are elected purely on the agreement of the members, while in modern cooperative.

 

Cooperative at large, the management committees are elected democratically, and any person contesting for any post must have the question of some vital requirement such as payment of entrance fees, share deposit etc and the member must be voted for any post in the society.

 

Cooperative thrift and credit society are mainly found among the urban areas, low-income earners, government employees etc. and a good number splitter around is the urban area as well.

 

1.1   BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Thrift and credit cooperative society like other sphere of life has it own problems. It is generally believed that any organization irrespective of its size has problems, if not identified and corrective measures applied is bound to hit the rock,. Cooperative thrift and credit is not left out this philosophy identifying and laying these problems is the primary aim of the write up of this project.

 

The project is aim at highlighting the obstacle responsible for the show growth of organization, it is also an attempt to highlight the aim and objectives of the organization, it is living up to expectation?

 

The problems are being highlighted analyzed and possible steps to be taken to alleviate the problems.

 

 

  • HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE AREA

Modern cooperative thrift and credit has been in existence in early 20’s 2004 to be precisely in orphanage mother multi purpose society. Before then, it was traditionally practiced, low-income earner, petty traders peasant farmers etc. contribute money weekly or monthly, they rotates one after the other which serves as urban development area for its members, and then people have difficulties to secure loan for its members from any financial institution due to the fact that mostly are low income earners, urban areas etc where they have no collateral for security while they normally requested before giving people loan.

ABSTRACT

Co –operative Audit and Control has been known to be basic  in Country’s economic growth.

In this respect, little or no attention is been given to this venture, Co –operative Audit and Control.

For a country to achieve its desired economic growth development and equipment allocation of revenue, its annual auditing is very necessary .moreover, once our respective co –operative society is well audited in a free and fair manner, frequent and inflation of assets would de detected.

But, the lack and inadequacy of this very concept has given a country a misconception in its dealing with the existing co –operative societies.

Finally, this research work would go a long way to reduce this said predicament by giving an insight into the necessary values and importance attached to it.  Thus, to audit our respective co operative societies, such problems would be definitely eliminated.

CHAPTER ONE

1.0      CO-OPERATIVE ORGANISATION AUDIT AND CONTROL

1.1   INTRODUCTION

A Co-operative is a union made up of a group of people and an enterprise. It is made up of a group of people with common goals, who run an enterprise in order to achieve their aim objective.  There is no co-operative without a group of persons and an enterprise through which they achieve their aims.

The enterprise of a co-operative is only a way through which the group of member achieve their aims. It is an instrument of achieving the socio economic goals of the members. A co-operative has two demands, that means that is  made up of both a group of individuals and enterprise.

The co-operative is a sociological group which possess common interest, goals, aims and objectives for all members of the group. The group of persons making up the co-operative is on a long –term basis. It is relatively permanent and of temporary or on idle basis. These are different roles to be played within the content of the group which must be mutual in the sense that they complement each other.

 

There may be individualistic or collective role.  This means that these are some roles which individuals are expected to play while these are others which should be carried on by the group. Example of group role is election at the group. Example of group role is election at this general meeting. These will be common values within the group.  These means that certain action of behaviors will be regarded as positive of negative within the group.  There must be some common understanding about what actions and reactions that are acceptable or not acceptable.  This is a way of translating its bye –law into norms which are based on common values and acceptable to all.  These norms could represent the standard norms which stipulate the way of carrying out individual and collective roles.

 

For a group to exist in the long term, these must be a two way communication:  between the individuals to know the rules of changes in the affairs of the group.  If these is no communication, the group will reek down.

 

Every group should have a structure through which it functions which lead to the formation of a hierarchy. A group in which everybody is equal will not work. Some people must be higher while others will be lower than others. For instance, there will be the president, secretary, members of management committee etc.  the group must also be identifiable.  That is, it must have some characteristics which will make it easy for it to be identified within of outside the group. Each of these points will help in achieving the goals of the group.

 

 

1.2   THE PROBLEM OF AUDITING AND CONTROL

The problems of co-operative organization and control could be traced to many factors.

In the first place, to audit a co-operative organization the members should know actually through education the values and benefits derived from it. Illiteracy among the members is a big backwardness facing the organisation.  The great importance of co-operative education cannot be  over emphasized a medical practitioner, Doctor William King, in his words said that there is a great importance attached to co-operative expert, Mr. Stemera said that “we are giving a choice between two alternative, that is co-operative with a large amount of capital and no education, and a co-operative society with a small amount of capital but with knowledgeable members, our experience inclines us to choose the letter.

 

The more co-operative education the member possess the easier it will be for the inspector to guide and assist them. Co-operative society with ignorant members in a very heavy burden on the inspection and the item devoted to its supervision is not achieved. Co-operative education is not the study of physics sciences like physics of politics. It simply means knowledge of the meaning objectives and running of the co-operative society, the duties of the members and the committee the knowledge of the society’s bye – law and the relevant sections of the co-operative law.

 

The education can be imported in a formal or informal way. Members can arrange a study of the co-operative laws. This method is formal. It will be a good thing if any time the inspector attends a co-operative society’s meeting, he spends about fifteen minutes teaching the members certain sections of their bye –laws. Informally, the co-operative inspector discusses matters with the members or answers their questions.

 

Moreover, it is essential that every members of the co-operative society should receive co-operative education. They are expected to know what the objective of the organisation are. A member should be thought his duties and responsibilities to his society, as well as his rights and privileges arising therefore.  He is expected to know also certain provisions of the co –operative law and society law.

Profit is shared among themselves.  The same problem is applicable to producer co-operative society. They needed capital for the purpose of high cultural production for the purpose of economics of large scale production.  But, where such money is not within their reach, that very objective could not be implemented.

Finally, the most capital problem being encountered by co-operative society is the money for employing auditors to audit their annual account. If this should be the case, then, actually the society is facing a big economic and financial predicament.

For instance, where the co-operative society fails to audit its annual account, the financial position of this organisation could not be defected. It could lead to a lot of problems.

First liquidation, fraudulent act and poor planning. It will stop to enjoy economic of large scale investment.  Fraudulent act and other necessary inflation of the organization as assets would be in practise. This problem of auditing the organisation should be strictly checked and eradicated so as to achieve a better for the society’s

 

1.3   PURPOSE OF THE STUDY   

It helps a nation or country to achieve its desired economic growth, development and equipment allocation of revenue. Its annual auditing is very necessary. Moreover, once our respective co-operative society is well audited in a free and fair manner, fraudulent and inflation of assets would be defected.

 

1.4   SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The main beneficiaries of this study are the public, the accountancy firms, professional accounting bodies and government.

  1. Public: This study will enable the public appreciate the duties and capabilities of the auditors.
  2. Accounting firms: Auditors help in dictation of errors in the accounting firms. Such as error of commission, omission, principle and compensation.
  3. Professional Accountancy Bodies:
  4. Government:  This study may show the necessity for government to review certain laws there hinder auditors from performing their role in ensuring survival and growth of such firms and make new law are necessary.  Besides, government will benefit from survival of such enterprises as it will derive income through taxes and job opportunities will be created.

CHAPTER ONE

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

          History has shown that development can occur only when every member that constitutes the society participates in its development. Hence development should be seen as a collective responsibility of all the people that make up the society irrespective of sex, age class.

Though the colonial administration gave little recognition to the socio-economic status of women thus women’s role in economic empowerment  was relegated  to kitchen and catering to the needs of their children and husband. While empowerment and trade were for men.

 

Now the Nigerian woman has gone beyond the stage of merely agitating for liberation or equal right with her male counterpart. The nation’s current constitution of 1979 accepts the obligation to accord women the same treatment as is accorded to men in all spheres of life, particularly in all areas covered by the convention. Women, today contribute over  80% of the nations food supply.

 

Though women contribute over 80% of the nations food supply, their economic power are still limited. They have limited access to ownership of land and housing, limited participation in nation building. The role of women in economic empowerment is determined by the society and also by the societal perception of the status and place of women and the extents of their participation in economic development of their family and the society in general.

 

With the recognition of women as vital instrument for economic empowerment and the realization of the vital role of women in the field of Agriculture, health and commerce, Education, the need to properly organize equip and harness the potentials of women towards  national development remains inevitable.

 

One cannot therefore, over emphasis the important role which co-operative movement can play in Nigeria, especially in this era of food shortage and economic depression. It is certain that the co-operative society plays in increasingly significant role in satisfying material, social and potential needs of their rural and urban women in Nigeria. It was as a result of this that the Federal Republic of Nigeria in her third National Development Plan (1975 – 1980) had a policy objectives of fostering the growth of co-operative movement as instrument for achieving increases Agricultural Productivity and rural transaction, some of these programmes such as Better Life for rural women, Family Support Programme and Family Economic Advancement Programme are yet another move by the government to ensure women participation in development.

 

Co-operative societies are organized groups, which are created to accomplish one or more functions including production, purchasing, supplying and the provision of credit facilities to its members.

 

Inspite of the government emphasis on the need for Nigeria to form co-operative societies in order to achieve self sufficiency in food production especially during this period of depressed economy. We are yet to experience the women’s full participation in co-operative societies. Ijere (1981) estimated that out of a population of 80 million, only 2.4% of Nigerian women were co-operative. It is against this backdrop that the present study goes on to investigate the role of co-operative  society in Economic Empowerment of women and the problems militating  against the full participation of women in co-operative society with a view of making recommendation.

 

 

1.2         STATEMENT OF PROBLEMS

It has been universally accepted that no nation can achieve a full economic power and sustainable growth it she leaves women out of development process. It is quite imperative for developing nation to consider both sustainable human development and economic growth as function of investment on girls and women as resources or engines of growth or social engineering. However in Nigeria, we find that to varying degrees. Women especially rural women constitute socially economically and politically disadvantaged group when compared to their male counterparts.

 

The introduction and formation of co-operative society in Nigeria is being targeted to correct the imbalance .Thus the problem to be solved in this research work are centered on the nature, organization role and relevance of co-operative society towards the economic and educational development of women .This research also intend to see co-operative societies solve the economic needs of women .

 

In Nigeria, guest for Education and Economic power have made a lot of plans and strategies to be implemented and amongst these measures in the recent past has been the clarion call for the formation of co-operative societies.  This work will therefore enable us highlight its contribution and explore areas that need improvement for Economic Empowerment of women .The research will go further to make reason able suggestion with a view to putting zeal for its formation to be extended to the rural women . The research will go further to make reasonable suggestion with a view to putting zeal for its formation to be extended to the rural women.

 

1.3         RESEARCH  QUESTIONS

This study is guided by the following questions.

(i)                Do co-operative societies contribute to national development?

(ii)             To what extent do women engage in socio-Economic roles that contribute to national development?

(iii)           To what extent do women experience difficulties in their role performance towards Economic Empowerment?

(iv)           What problems confront co-operative societies?

(v)             To what extent does lack of fund effect women in the struggle for economic emancipation?

(vi)           To what extent does illiteracy effect women participation in co-operative?

(vii)        What kind of aid or intensive do governments give to co-operative secretive?
