Background of the Study
Revenue generation is essential for the sustainability of public services and infrastructure development. Public sector accounting standards (PSAS) provide guidelines for the accurate recording and reporting of government financial transactions. In Takum Local Government Area (LGA) of Taraba State, the implementation of these standards influences the effectiveness of revenue generation processes. However, challenges such as lack of compliance, inadequate training, and weak monitoring systems have undermined the potential of PSAS in enhancing revenue generation. This study examines the effect of public sector accounting standards on revenue generation in Takum LGA.
