ABSTRACT
The basic aim of this project is to
provide a simplified method of discount rate for manufacturing company using
Mount Olive Company as a case study. Due to the rapid improvement in modern
science and technology in ratifications of life there is need for the
management of the company to apply computer in their transaction of the
discount rate to make a quick decision with the existing method due to this
difficulties. This project is designed to take care of the difficulties, and
this program is written in Visual Basic programming (6.0) language which
creates database file that will keep all the transaction information when any
action is been taken.

GENERAL
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND
TO THE STUDY
Computer is an electronic device which
has been accredited as a powerful tools for solving sonic human problems in a
faster and sometimes, cheaper way. This project considered the significance and
uses of computer in sales and discount rate analysis. Computer needs less human
interventions, as it very accurate, informative in sales, and accounts can be
stored on it for a very long time. Most problems involves some data or information
upon which some actions are required in order to obtain some desire results,
thus 3 main phrase can be identify in solving problems with computer by
applying computer to Mount Olive Company. It will be automated their job and as
well as disable unauthorized person to have access to their information or
accounts.
Manufacturing company is a production
company whereby they produce different kinds of goods and services for general
public use industry computerizing the discount rate of Mount Olive company is
to introduce tools that will make their transaction to be perfect and error
free.
Introduction of computer application
to Mount Olive Company is to help their efficiency areas of sales and expenses
on transaction. Discount rate is the reduction of total amount to be paid on a
particular commodity, in order to increase the demand of that particular
commodity. With the computerization of Mount olive company quality and quantity
product will be produced, the production will be very efficient and accurate. Error
that may be associated with manual record keeping such as; inconsistency in
calculating, data mismatch, record data will be eliminated and increase rate of
process, provide proper and maximum security will be used by providing users
password. and this program is written
in Visual Basic programming (6.0) language which creates database file that
will keep all the transaction information when any action is been taken.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
PROBLEMS OF THE EXISTING SYSTEM
I
gone through the computation procedure of the discount rate, we may find it
simple clear and easy to do manually, but when the works becomes voluminous, a
large number of problems occurs. This project is therefore design to eradicate
these problems which some of them are listed below:
1.
Inaccuracy
2.
Slow preparation of report
3.
Unauthorized access to information
4.
Destruction of files and valuable
information
5.
Movement of file
1.3 AIMS
AND OBJECTIVES
The
aims and objectives of the computerization of discount rate Mount Olive Company
is to minimize error that may be associated with manual record keeping such as
inconsistency in calculating and data mitmatch.
This
is design to improved management control and increase rate of process, provide
proper and maximum security by using user password such as special word like
Alphabetic, Alphanumeric Numeric data to represent key, this will also grant
proper security for manipulating the program.
Also
entails the use of programming language in tabulating and processing of the
company activities to design user’s friendly program, proper documentation, easy
to debug and also to provide quality, accurate and efficient in nature. It may
be upgraded at any time when it is necessary.
The
entire manual problem will be provided with solutions, the program contains a
form for user to process their data and also code for execution.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
In order to tackle the problem of wrong
calculation, inability to keep costumers record at a time without
miscalculation and wrong working, the entire process of Mount Olive Company need
to be fully and properly computerized to maximize profit, minimize the cost of
production and satisfy the wants of the customers.
In addition, this research work serve as
guild line to other readers who may refer to it at any point in time when
gathering full details on the procedure and problems of computerization of
discount rate in manufacturing company.
This research will also expose the
researcher to the practical aspect of discount rate which eventually the
researcher will make used of it later in future.
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The
scope of the study is within the marketing and department of Mount Olive
Company.
Discount
plays an important role in Mount Olive Company by increasing the numbers of
customers; increase the level of product demand and also by advertising,
promoting publizing and of course marketing the company product. Discount can
also be used to introduce new product in order to retain the existing customers
or to derive growth for the company. During the course of investigation on computerizing
the discount rate is to process the discount faster without may miscalculation
and wrong working for many customers at a time. Also computer application in
this field will facilitate easy working environment and also provide the
necessary information accurately and timely. This project is limited to
discount processing transaction and customers record keeping which means it
cannot be used in any other department expect marketing/sale department and so
it cannot be access on line.
1.6 ORGANIZATION
OF THE REPORT
This
project work on computerization discount rate in a manufacturing company, a
case study of Mount Olive Company. The project is divided into five chapters,
in order to simply and to aid the understanding of the project.
The chapter one of this project
provides a general introduction on how computer is used in calculating discount
rate in a manufacturing company, also included in this chapter are aims and
objectives, significance of study, scope of the study, organization report and
definition of major operational terms used.
Chapter two deals with the literature
review and also basic computer concept.
Chapter three of this project
explained the method of data collection (i.e. methodology), analysis of data
and the existing system, description of the proposed system and the design and
implementation methodologies.
Chapter four contains the design of
the proposed system, output design, input design, database and procedure
design, also in this chapter we have the implementation, the hardware support,
the software support, the documentation, the program documentation, the
operating of the system.
While the chapter five includes the
brief summary of work done, experience gained problem encountered conclusion as
well as the suggestions for future review research.
