Human Resource is the most critical, very significant assets in any business organizations but it is not incorporated in the statement of financial position. The study examined the factors that have accounted for the exclusion of Human Resources Accounting in the statement of financial position of companies listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange. The paper also ascertained the relationship between human resource Accounting and firms performance. The study used both primary and secondary data. A regression model was used to ascertain the effects of Human Resource Accounting on a firm's performance. The study used secondary data from a published annual financial statement of all the listed companies on the Ghana Stock Exchange on the period of 2015-2018. The findings revealed that, the exclusion of human resources in the statement of financial position is due to these key obstacles such as: there is no proper clear-cut and specific guidelines for measuring costs and value of human resources; the period of existence of Human Resource is uncertain; there is no universally accepted method of valuation of human resources; no active market for human resource and the financial position of the business may be misleading. Despite the difficulties for the inclusion of HR into financial statement, it is worthy to note from the findings that, human resources contributes positively to a firm’s financial growth as evidenced by the positive effect on Return on Equity (ROE). Therefore, the paper recommends that the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) should consult prime actors and professionals in the accounting field to debate on the arguments against and considerations for human resource inclusion in the Statement of Financial Position

This paper is a theoretical discourse and review on human resource accounting which remains an issue both for research and in practice. The library-based research design was used in this study. It is an established fact that the human resource is an integral component of every business and constitutes a key intangible asset for companies. However, unlike other assets, human resource does not conform to the peculiar patterns of conventional accounting assets in a strict sense and hence cannot be treated as such. Research efforts and models such as the replacement cost, opportunity cost, present value of discounted future earnings, etc have evolved overtime to try to properly capture, measure and report human resource and each model has its own weakness that makes it daunting for human resource to be fully amenable to the postulations of the models. Many researchers have thus shifted to issues of human resource disclosures in annual reports which basically concerns itself to what is disclosed about human resources such as training, welfare, compensation packages amongst others. This again does not provide much insight to the core issue of human resource accounting which involves cost to recruit, select, hire, train, compensate and develop human assets on one hand and calculating the economic value of people to the organization on the other. The study concludes that there is need for more robust research efforts and quantification methodologies for human resource accounting and the role of financial reporting standards will be crucial in helping to achieve some sort of consensus in moving forward on this issue of human resource accounting.
