problems of inefficient accounting information. It is believe that an
improvement in this regards will enhance the performance of the corporation.

questions were raised in the form of hypotheses, which were developed
comprising the null and alternative hypotheses. The methods of data
collection were primary and secondary data method. The data collected were
analyzed by use of simple percentages while chi-square was used to test the
hypothesis formulated for validity. Findings show that accounting information
is an indispensible tool in the management of Nigeria Railway Corporation

responsible for the performance of the accounts departments in Nigeria

procedures. Since the financial statement are sources of document of
accounting information, efforts should be made in generating more relevant,
timely, effective and accurate accounting information necessary for
