Results – The Accounting Information System helps the accountants and stakeholders in their decision making process, in enhancing the quality of the financial reports, and in the auditing of financial transactions of the company. Conclusion – With the help of the proposed system, accountants will no longer have a difficult time in creating their reports manually; hence, the proposed system shall help the stakeholders of the company to make sound decisions for the company. Recommendations – To improve its accessibility to its users, it is also recommended that a mobile version of the system that works both in Android and iOS platforms be developed.
