Abstract

We interrogated the usefulness of management accounting information, digital inclusion and SMEs performance: A survey of SMEs in Edo state, Nigeria. The study utilized the survey method of data collection through questionnaires and data was analyzed through the use of descriptive statistics and the use of SPSS software. Findings indicated that the usefulness of management accounting information is not utilized by the SMEs and that SMEs are not fully utilizing the digital tools to enhance their performance or those that are utilized are not significant to influence the outcome. Based on the findings of the study, the following recommendations were arrived at; proprietors of SMEs should be more committed to adhering to the practice of proper account record taking and keeping as this will help their decision-making and profitability. Furthermore, SMEs should embrace the place of ICT in the daily transactions of their businesses.
