CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background to the Study
Corporate financial report provides fundamental information to a wide range of groups; its main
purpose is to provide information which is supposed to give a true and fair view of the
management’s stewardship, company’s performance and financial position for the various users
of the information to make informed economic decisions (America Accounting Association,
1961). Financial reporting is the process by which corporate entities provide interested parties
(users) with information on their transactions during an accounting period (Mbobo & Ekpo,
2016). Among the interested parties are shareholders, creditors, tax authorities, customers,
financial analysts, and lenders. The parties need quality financial reports for economic decision

position, financial performance and cash flows of an entity that is useful to a wide range of users
in making economic decisions. Such information is communicated through financial statements.

stewardship of the resources entrusted to it by revealing economic information on assets,
liabilities, equity, income and expenses, including gains and losses; contributions by and
distributions to owners in their capacity as owners; and cash flows. Such information, along with

other information in the notes, assists users of financial statements in predicting the entity’s
future cash flows and, in particular, their timing.

essential information needed by various stakeholders especially investors for making informed
economic decisions. Investors in search of investment avenues use the accounting information
contained in the financial statements of the intended investing company in pricing of shares.
Market participants seek high-quality financial reporting or information to mitigate information

market. Thus, companies that provide high-quality information have an added advantage in their
