CHAPTER ONE
1.0              INTRODUCTION
1.1              BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
In Nigeria today, the attention of most stake holders is in the management and maintenance of small scale business to promote grass root development. This idea is a fight which the federal government is putting through to all levels of government, including state and local government. To this effect, the stake holders has arranged and organized special bodies including financial institutions to finance and promote the growth of this said small scale business in all levels of government through out the federation.
Thus, before going deep into this work, it is penitent to define the concept of small scale business in other to ascertain the true meaning. The definition of small-scale business may vary from one country to another or from different schools of thoughts, since there is no universal accepted definition. According to Klott Lawrence (1973) small-scale business is any industry/business which is independently owned and operated and not dominant in its area of operation. It can also be defined generally as business owned, managed by one or two persons, influenced by the family in decision making, has no undifferentiated organizational structure, market share is small and employ less than fifty (50) persons. National Economic Reconstruction Fund (NERFUND) defined small-scale industries as those whose fixed assets value do not exceed N10m. on the other hand regards any enterprise whose annual turnover is less than (500,000) Five hundred thousand naira as small scale.
Furthermore, the National Directorate of Employment (NDE), defined small scale industries to include projects with capital investment of below five thousand naira and a staff strength of three (3) persons. The center for management Development gave the definition of operations, employing up to fifty (50) full time workers. Investment in plant and machinery but excluding land and building shall not exceed five hundred thousand (N500,000) naira power. Lastly, the center for industrial research and development of Obafemi Awolowo University- Ile-Ife defined small-scale industry “as those whose total asset in plant, equipment and working capital do not exceed N250,000  and with not more than 50 employees.
In the context of our society, the owner of a small scale business is assumed to include any person who runs a business. Thus, the man who owns a department store, bookshop, beer palour, printing press, beauty salon etc is an entrepreneur, or small-scale business owner. The small-scale business contributes a lot to the development of our economy. This business at some time back started from the scratch to big enterprises. In Nigeria today half of the  population are engaged in small scale business in various capacity which in turn yield money for them and the economy those that export their goods to other countries in international trade earn foreign exchange to the nation, thus improving the naira value. In other words, the ungoing programme of the NDE in creating and making employment easy for unemployed graduates in our economy, which has turned or made small-scale business to grow to a large extent involving business of all works of  life. The latest addition is in the communication industries, which now employ greater percentage of Nigerian as self employed. Since the down of GSM in Nigeria.
The big question then is how well are these small firms financed and planned to stand the test of time in the over fluctuating Nigeria economy. This then brings to our mind the important of financial planning of any small scale business for profit maximization, break even analysis and prevention of winding up or collapse. This is what the research work is posed to find out.
