Abstract

This study examined the relationship between Financial Management Practices (FMP) and compliance with Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) among Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) in Dasmariñas, Imus, and General Trias, Cavite. It provides insights into how MSEs can enhance their financial practices and accounting compliance to achieve microenterprises sustainability and accurate financial reporting. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed, utilizing primary data collected from 384 Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) registered MSE owners and managers through online and printed questionnaires. Responses were measured using a four-point Likert scale, and the relationship between FMP and FAS compliance was analyzed using Spearman’s Rho correlation. The results showed that MSEs exhibited a high level of financial management practice and a high degree of compliance with financial accounting standards. Inventory management emerged as the most frequently practiced FMP, while the Statement of Profit or Loss (SPL) was the most prepared financial statement. When grouped according to business profile, no significant differences were found in the level of FMP implementation or FAS compliance. However, a strong and statistically significant positive relationship was observed between FMP and FAS compliance. In conclusion, the findings indicate that effective financial management practices contribute to higher levels of compliance with financial accounting standards among MSEs, regardless of business profile. MSEs that consistently apply sound financial management practices are more likely to produce accurate and reliable financial statements.

Abstract

A cross-sectional study was conducted in a state university in the Province of Cavite which covered the academic year 2025-2026 and explored the perceptions of accountancy students toward the use of digital learning materials as against traditional textbooks in studying core accounting subjects. Specifically, it aims to characterize the participants in terms of age, gender, year level, and monthly family income, investigate how often and in what situations accountancy students use digital and printed textbooks, examine the advantages and disadvantages of using both materials in learningaccounting core subjects, and recognize preferences. The research employed both quantitative and qualitative research with emphasis on the students’ experiences and perceptions. The entire population of 242 students enrolled under the accountancy program were included in the data collection applying in-depth and key informant interviews and focus group discussions, per year level. Responses were decoded manually following the steps of thematic analysis of Braun and Clark (2006). The findings revealed that printed textbooks remain as the main learning resources for students, with most indicating that they “often” use them while studying as a foundational resource. In contrast, digital materials are “often” utilized to augment the learning process. Further, the demographic profile of the participants is not a factor on the perceptions of students towards both digital and traditional learning materials; rather, the context of use is the main driver of their preference between digital and traditional learning materials. Students alternately use both printed and digital materials, allowing one to supplement the gaps of the other.
