FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT AND PERFORMANCE ON SELECTED MANUFACTURING COMPANIES IN NIGERIA

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT AND PERFORMANCE ON SELECTED MANUFACTURING COMPANIES IN NIGERIA

ABSTRACT

This study aimed to critically examine the effects of fair value measurement and performance of manufacturing companies in Nigeria. However, since the major objective of any business organization is to make profit and continue in business, what they face in the course of doing their business and the method of accounting they use in reporting their profit may make this noble objective to be unrealistic particularly during inflationary period. Thus, the desire to examine whether fair value measurement increase performance on selected manufacturing companies in Port Harcourt ignited this study. To achieve this objective, four research questions and three research hypotheses were formulated to guide this study. A well structured questionnaire was used as the major instrument to gather data from the 185 staff and management of the selected companies which includes Explosive and Plastic Company Limited, New China Rubber & Plastic Footwear Industry Limited and Nexans Kabelmetal Nigeria Plc and a sample size of 120 was randomly selected. The data collected from the respondents were analyzed using simple percentage and Chi-square statistical tool was employ for testing the hypotheses. The study concluded with some recommendations that accounting bodies in Nigeria should organize workshops for the accountants and managers of companies to create enough awareness on current cost accounting and the need to depart from the historical cost accounting method during inflationary period.
