 CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

  • Background of the study

The process of managing a business or an organization consists of the basic elements of planning, control and decision making. Planning and control are parts and parcel of   our daily likes. Planning and control of cost and operations is the key to good management. Accounting control is a process of developing plans for a company’s    expected operations to help to carry out those plans.   Accounting planning has to do with setting out aims and objectives to be achieved over a period of time and control monitors how well the aims and objective are achieved. The preparation of a company’s finance is the single important aspect of its success. As a tool of management, it can increase the efficiency of the organization at a while since all the departments are involved. The accounting planning and efficiency are not achieved by an organization if they are not properly financed. The efficiency and effectiveness of any organization, therefore depend on a number of factors which may be categorized as clarify of purposes, management, planning, control and communication. There is a need to have a clear knowledge of the objectives of the organizations, otherwise it will not be possible to identify goals set target for their achievements in form of planning, control   and management of its finance.  accounting  management has to do with planning, controlling, acquiring and utilizing of funds in a way that maximized the efficiency of the firm, most especially, (finance is the evaluation and acquisition product assets, procurement of funds and disbursement of which involved funds). The finance received by any business may be influenced by the follow in fixed assets necessary for producing and distribution of products e.g. plants and machines.

  1. b) Raw materials plants and miscellaneous supplies to purchase.
  2. C) Wages and other expenses to be paid. There are alternative involved in accounting decision which include the use of internal and external source. The source is mostly used for the firms operation and should not be over looked when planning finance. They are generated from operation or retained in current assets. The external sources are made up of three main types namely: short term, medium term which consist of back   loan, hire purchase and sale and lease back equipment.  Long term consist of debenture with a fixed charge or floating charge. The need for Accounting planning arises because Accounting resources are limited and costly and even where the resources are available; the areas into which they could be applied to make profit are diverse.  Planning and control acts as a device that   enable management to anticipate changer are adopting it. No business exists without this concept and success in business is proportionate to its planning and skill with which it is controlled. Owerri municipal council officially came into existence on December 5, 1989 during the regime of Gen. Ibrahim Babangida. It is striking to note that the new Owerri urban district was created under   eastern region legal notices No 218 of 1955. Further in 1958 it was renamed country council and in 1960 it was properly called local government. In 1966, East central state was created and the local system was abolished and civil war broke out.  After civil war, in 1971 the local administration was called decision administration and Owerri   division was created comprising the present Owerri municipal, Ngor  okpala L.G.A, Owerri north L.G.A and  Owerri west L.G.A.  in 1976,  under the murtala Mohammed  state creation  exercise, Owerri suddenly bounded bank into  prominence and it regained its lost glory by becoming the capital of  Imo state   with  the development trappings  associated  with the New role Another major local government  review  headed  by chief  Arthur  mbaneto  was  carried  out during  the regime of Gen. Ibrahim  Babangida and on December 5, 1989, the federal government gave Owerri urban, the original Owerri people  a municipal council area which comprises the following villages: umuoronjo, Amawom, umuonyeche, umuodu and umuonyina popularly called Owerri- nchi-ise. Other areas included are: The federal and state housing estates, as well as commercial and industrial layout. Owerri municipal is now seriously  assuming the regional head quarters of the East, with the federal government locating most of its zonal offices  in Owerri, viz: customs, immigration, equally followed suit because of  its strategic location in the heart of Imo state.  According to 2005 national causes figure, Owerri municipal is tentatively put to be 127, 213, where 62, 990 are male and 64, 223 are female. However, this projection has almost been double. Owerri municipal council is strategically located at the center or heart of Imo state. This has caused its dominance of other semi-urban L.G.A.  In Imo state to suffer and upsurge in population and traffic congestion every day. Reasonably, the federal and state government as well as non-governmental and international organizations intervenes appropriately: its peaceful nature will result to total clean-lines as it has assumed for now.
