The overall aim of this research is to assess the degree of accountability being exercised and the problems being encountered in accounting for construction companies.
The outcome of the research showed that the control and management of stock in the companies has not been as adequately as it should be, in the optimal realization of the organizational objectives. Based on the finding of this research, the researcher recommends that companies should set up a separate committee within their operation and entrust them with the functions of policy decision in stock planning and control.
Also there should be adequate segregation of duties as to the physical counting of inventories.
Furthermore, alternative method of acquiring stock rather than importation should be exploited by the construction companies. Also the companies should consider setting up policy guidelines for manpower development and training of their staffs. Lastly, since the world is going computerized, the construction companies should join the bandwagon and use computer in handling its stock control and procedure With these recommendations the problems of this research topic will be take care of.
