This study examined the extent to which investment in property, plant & equipment (PPE) made by listed manufacturing companies in Nigeria relate with the return on assets (ROA). The non-usage of composite appraisal techniques, other than traditional budgeting techniques was seen as a major problem of investment decisions on PPE. The study adopted the quantitative panel methodology of the ex post facto and correlational research design. Secondary data were extracted from the fact books of the Nigerian Stock Exchange for the period, 2013 – 2018. The number of manufacturing companies listed in the Stock Exchange during this period was 83, which was also taken as the population of the study. The sample used in the study was 69. Three hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. Multiple and simple regression analyses were used on the data collected, to find the relationship between the independent and dependent variables. The hypotheses tested indicated in the findings that property, plant and equipment had a significant relationship with return on assets of listed manufacturing firms in Nigeria when there is a joint relationship between variables of property, plant & equipment (PPE) and return on asset (ROA). Based on the findings and conclusion, it was recommended that management of manufacturing companies should ensure a holistic use of all techniques, exploring the real and growth options analyses as well as portfolio management techniques involving productive non-current assets, to earn the benefit of return on assets invested.

The study examines Nigeria challenge of the mono-culture economy due to an overreliance on oil, and coupled with the threat been stranded arising from the global campaign and signed Paris agreement in 2015 is an economic risk that could jeopardize her economic development. Answers to why the manufacturing sector has occupied a peripheral position in the Nigeria’s economic development aspiration question alongside the overarching goal of articulating pragmatic mediums and approaches for revamping the manufacturing industry from the encumbrances hindering its full capacity functioning. This research was undertaken to examine the manufacturing sector as an alternative to Nigeria’s petroleum dependence economy by dissecting its problems and how-to repositioning it for a viable diversification. The ex-post facto research method was adopted using impeccable secondary data sources. Insecurity and poor political governance were among other impediments to the manufacturing optimum performance, and strengthening the political institution for an all-inclusive government, amongst others, is proffered as panacea.

ABSTRACT Purpose: A major thread in accounting literature, which has remained a contentious issue, is how accounting alchemy can be modeled. The paper builds on existing accrual models in proposing an accounting alchemy model and tests if it is still the right medicine for earnings and book value of firms. The accounting alchemy model was based on mechanisms of earnings, book value, earnings before extraordinary items, net profit after tax, cash flow from operations, revenue, and total assets. We modified accrual models on the view that accrual models suggest that incomes/expenses are the most manipulated; contrarily, accounting alchemy proposes that assets are alchemized. Originality/value: This paper proposes a new empirical model of accounting alchemy and practically assesses the validity of the model in Sub-Saharan Africa, where there are no studies. The proposed accounting alchemy model can be used in Asia, Europe, and other parts of the world to see if the study results can be replicated. Design/methodology/approach: Ex post facto design was used, and secondary data were obtained for selected quoted firms in Sub-Saharan Africa comprising Nigeria, South Africa, and Kenya from 2012 to 2016. A sample of 64 firms was selected in the consumer and industrial goods subsector, and data were analyzed via descriptive (mean, standard deviation, correlation) and inferential (regression, fixed, and random effects) statistics. Findings: Findings indicated that earnings and book value are significantly affected by accounting alchemy. This implies that accounting alchemy is not the right medicine for firm’s earnings and book value. The result has practical application for researchers and the regulatory framework of accounting.

Aims: The study examined the impact of insurance sector development on foreign direct investment in Nigeria. Study Design: The ex-post facto research design was employed to observe the study components in retrospect. Secondary data spanning 1996 to 2017 was sourced and collated from the World Development Indicators, Central Bank of Nigeria statistical bulletin and National Insurance Commission annual balance sheets. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Banking and Finance, Niger Delta University, Wilberforce Island, Bayelsa State, Nigeria. The study was carried out between November 2019 to January 2020. Methodology: The ex-post facto research design was employed to observe the study components in retrospect. Secondary data spanning 1996 to 2017 was sourced and collated from the World Development Indicators, Central Bank of Nigeria statistical bulletin and National Insurance Commission annual balance sheets. The time series data was estimated using the least square technique. Results: The results indicates that; the total asset size of the insurance sector exerts a negative and statistically insignificant impact on foreign direct investment inflow to Nigeria, total insurance business investment exerts a positive and statistically insignificant impact on foreign direct investment inflow to Nigeria and finally, total insurance premium exerts a negative and statistically significant impact on foreign direct investment inflow to Nigeria. Conclusion: The study concludes that insurance sector development does not attract foreign investment inflow to Nigeria. The study recommends that the insurance sector should be revamped in order to absorb risk and uncertainty and be a vehicle for risk transfer and minimization. A policy of restructuring would help instil public confidence, boost insurance policy sales, increase insurance premium and invariably increase the availability of investible funds to boost economic activity. The study suggests that these would help attract foreign direct investment to meet domestic funding needs of Nigeria.

The efficiency of asset management for various reasons has been the focus of companies, managers and investors doing building and construction business in Nigeria. The main objective of this study was to ascertain the effect of asset management efficiency on corporate performance of building and construction companies in Nigeria. To accomplish the main objective three specific objectives were formulated. These include examining the effects of asset turnover, inventory turnover and working capital turnover on profit after tax (proxy for performance). The study adopted the ex-post facto research design and secondary data were collected on the independent and dependent variables for ten (12) years, i.e. 2006-2017. The data were analyzed using simple regression method and it was found that net asset turnover and working capital turnover did not have significant effect on performance of building and construction companies in Nigeria. On the other hand, inventory turnover had significant effect on corporate performance of building and construction companies of Nigeria. It was recommended that management of building and construction companies should among other things adopt modern techniques of asset management that would translate asset turnover to corporate performance.
