Background of the Study

Anka LGA, like many public institutions, faces challenges in managing financial resources and ensuring accountability. Responsibility accounting, which involves assigning financial responsibility to specific departments or managers within an organization, could enhance public sector performance by improving transparency, control, and resource allocation. This study will evaluate how responsibility accounting is applied in Anka LGA and its impact on performance.
