CHAPTER ONE

  INTRODUCTION

          Financial accounting covers those activities related to the preparation of certain reports which are known as financial statement. These statements reports the financial status of a firm at a particular time the firms activities and resulting profit or losses during the most recent period and the flow of resources occurring within the firm during the same period.

This statement made by A. THOPSON MONTAOMERY gives us an idea on the meaning of financial accounting. However the question arises what are the efforts of these financial account reports in the management of business? The answer poses a problem which the paper will seek to solve. Not all business persons understand the impact of financial accounting information on the management of their business, some manages business intuitively. Other, like traffic defaulters who disobey road signs, disobey the warning of communicated by financial accounting information and end up in a “Business Accident”

There are other sources of information which have impact on the management of Business and the combination of these sources give an information system in the complex nature. As FARM WOOD puts it, “it must not be thought that accounting of any form is the management control system. Instead it is part of it”. But accounting information is the only system through which both mangers and external users get a picture of the organization as a total entity.

Moreover, financial accounting information usually comes in the disguised form by “wearing” the cloak of technicalities. Such technicalities include calculation which need expert knowledge in its interpretation. But when some business because of low financial layout, cannot employ such experts hands, they tend to ignore financial accounting information system which has an effect on the management of any business concern. The problem is: Do all businessmen know this? This is the question that the researcher seeks to answer also.

 

 

 

1.1     STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM.

          Is very important for the functioning of any business. The finacial accounting system in most business organization do not potrary fully the principles of accounting systems. The flow of information, the cost of collecting any information and the internal control procedures have some loops holes.

In reality, it would be impossible for the researcher to study all the information system in all or even one of the organization. The study therefore involves a study of some typical financial accounting reporting on the management of a business. The researcher will carry out an empirical study and appraisal of a business financial accounting and see whether there is room for improvement to be made. It will therefore involve a review of the financial accounting and its related procedures.

 

1.2     PURPOSE OF STUDY

          The goal of every business is profit optimization. The management of most business exist primarily for this purpose. Whether the business ownership is separated from the management, the rules for profit optimization (or maximization as some books may choose to call it) are still the same. Profit optimization is used rather than maximization. In this paper because optimization has a social effect.

The mangement is able to do this as long as they are able to use their financial resources profitably they must know the effect which financial accounting information has on the management of the business. Financial accounting measures, by means of the reports they prepare the extent to which management has succeeded in their goals of profit optimization.

The report which serves as financial information of the accounting period has an impact on the future achievement of the business. This effect now becomes the goal of this research. The researcher seeks to know more about this effect (ie the financial accounting effect on the management of business) and also advices all business persons on the effect.
