Abstract:
The significance of computerized accounting performance served as the basis for this investigation. The study aimed to ascertain the applications of computerized accounting information systems, evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of computerized accounting for financial organizations, and define the characteristics of financial reports produced by these systems. With a sample size of fifteen respondents, the researcher employed both qualitative and quantitative research designs. The data collection techniques included questionnaires, observation interviews, and investigative procedures. Both primary and secondary data were used. The study found that many financial statements were produced by the computerized accounting system and that computerized accounting had a significant influence on the caliber of financial reports. The results indicate a highly significant positive link between the variables, suggesting a strong relationship between financial reporting and computerized accounting of Nigerian firms. Although an organization's computerized accounting system plays a critical role in its operations, it is not without flaws that make financial management inside the company less effective. It is advised to use a computerized accounting system as a continuous culture.
