ABSTRACT

The objective of this research is to evaluate the extent to which ratio analysis would assist in the financial management of state owned tertiary institutions in Nigeria using Polytechnics in North Central States of Nigeria as a reference point. Specifically, the study aims to ascertain the relationship between the application of ratio analysis and effective management of staff loan schemes, efficacy of internal control processes; management of financial risks; control of frauds and forgeries and financial effectiveness of the management of revenue collection processes. In achieving the objectives of the study, cross sectional survey research design involving the distributions of structured questionnaire was used. This was supported by an ordinary least square model.
Data generated from the survey were analyzed using simple regression model. The significant findings of the study is that effective ratio analysis in tertiary institutions is sin qua non for proper financial management of staff loans schemes in the institutions, increases the efficacy of internal control processes and aids in the early detection of frauds and forgeries in the tertiary institutions. The implications of the findings is that if proper financial evaluation techniques are not employed in the higher institutions frauds and poor internal control mechanisms would triumph. To adequately assess the financial managerial performance of any institution, absolute accounting figures have to be expressed in ratio, which will be used as yardstick for assessment. Based on the findings of this study, it was highly recommended that for management to effectively analyze the financial managerial performance of some key functions of the institutions effective ratio analysis will be helpful as this reflects quantitative relationships and thus helps to form qualitative judgment about the key performance indicators of the organizations.
