Abstract
Public relations (PR) expenses are a significant aspect of corporate operations for Nigerian organizations, playing a crucial role in managing the relationship between the organization and its various stakeholders. However, the accounting treatment of PR expenses in corporate organizations in Nigeria has been a subject of debate and inconsistency. This research aims to explore the current practices and challenges faced by Nigerian corporate organizations in accounting for PR expenses. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. Data will be collected through surveys and interviews with finance and PR professionals in Nigerian organizations to gather insights into the accounting practices and challenges related to PR expenses. The quantitative data will be analyzed using statistical techniques to identify trends and patterns, while qualitative data will be thematically analyzed to provide in-depth understanding and explanations. The findings of this research will contribute to the existing body of knowledge by shedding light on the current practices and challenges faced by Nigerian corporate organizations in accounting for PR expenses. The study will also provide practical recommendations for improving the accounting treatment of PR expenses in Nigerian organizations, which can help enhance transparency and accountability in financial reporting. Overall, this research is important as it addresses a gap in the literature regarding the accounting treatment of PR expenses in Nigerian corporate organizations. By providing insights into the current practices and challenges, the study aims to guide organizations in improving their accounting practices related to PR expenses, ultimately leading to better financial reporting and stakeholder communication.
