Project on Modern Business Management
Business decision making usually involves choices between alternative courses of action.
These alternative courses of action are often subject to constraints of various types.
Alternatives are then evaluated, and the decision made. It is usual to then monitor or
check the actual decision to see whether in fact the results were in line with what was
expected. If not, questions need to be asked. Monitoring can provide useful insights into
what went wrong and how to rectify it.
Our answers to the above questions will strongly influence and be influenced by the legal
business form we are going to select. However, that form may change with growth and
needs of the enterprise. One example of a form changing would be a sole proprietorship
might be evolved into a partnership (which could add shared expertise and resources) and
then to a corporate structure, which could enhance management continuity and financing
capabilities (if shares are sold).
Many factors must be considered when choosing the best form of business ownership or
structure. The choice businessmen make can have an impact on multiple aspects of their
business, including taxes, liability and ownership succession.
When organizing a new business, it is important to take time to review the pros and cons
of each structure. Basically, the form of organization depends on the type of business,
how many owners or investors are involved and how tax and liability issues will best be
handled. Some businesses, especially for tax and liability reasons, will want to
incorporate from the beginning. Others may operate for their lifetime as sole
proprietorships. Any time two or more unrelated people are involved in a business, they

Accounting is concerned with the provision of economic information that will be useful
to those directly (and to some extent indirectly) connected with an organisation. The
information provided should be useful in assessing both the performance of those who
manage the organisation and the performance and position of the organisation itself.
Once the interested parties have made these assessments, they will be in a position to
make more informed economic decisions concerning the organisation.

2.1 Statement of the problem
A training program is the answer to jump-starting the business. The right kind of training
program can help a small-business owner to elevate the performance of his/her company
and its employees from good to great and even excellent as it usually stated by scholars
in management. Taking this fact into consideration, we are attempting to provide short-
term trainings to local businessmen or traders who are actively engaging in the business
In order to promote the overall business in Bale Zone, particularly in Goba, Ginir and
Dello towns in particular to make decisions, giving training is most pressing need and
unquestionable issue.
The training will be initiated by Zone revenue office by identifying skill gaps of traders.
Based on this to equip the traders knowledge and skills in Goba, Ginir and Dello towns
and woredas with this and other, we have planned to offer short-term training on four
topics: (1) Organizing and Financing Modern Business, (2) Business growth strategy, (3)
Accounting and Its Roles in Modern Business, taking the time constraint into
consideration. 4. Tax and legislation related issues
The project directly and indirectly benefited different bodies such as government, private
and public organization, city and zonal trade and industry offices, Small-Medium
enterprise, and societies in general. The project will consider small- medium enterprises
in Goba, Ginir and Dello. The project only reflects on 1103 small-medium enterprise that
will select from each stratum. Moreover, the project’, will invite trade and industry
