PURPOSE OF ACCOUNTING FOR CIC
Monitor activity: Businesses usually monitor their activities because they need to know how the business is doing in
terms of sales, payments received, expenses paid, and so on. Because, for example, if the
CIC PLC sales drop, they can
see where they are going wrong and
way to make sales increase. (John bellwood,2019,pg 4-7)
To fulfill legal compliance:Business entities such as CIC Plc, trusts, and communities are run and governed in
accordance with various legislative acts.
(CFI,2022)
To aid decision-making CIC Plc to make future decisions, accurate financial statements are important.
One of the primary goals of accounting is to make the right decisions at the right time. Thus, accounting

provides
CIC a foundation for future planning by utilizing past records. (CFI,2022)
Recording transactions: if the CIC PLC does not follow those rules of recording the transactions made by
them
, they will be unable to report their financial performance and their taxes and expenses will be
incorrectly calculated when the time comes to pay them.
(CFI,2022)
Ensure control assets :When CIC Plc control their company account’s and assets it is because they need
accurate records from transactions and also to see closely how the activities of the company are being

carried out. Because for example if in case the Cic plc suddenly had a problem of money going down but

the sales are still the same then this means that something is happening to company, and the owner needs

to figure it out, this is why companies tend to control their finances and assets.
