Findings from the study showed that 84.6% of the non-financial assets were held in property, plant and equipment while 14.45%, 0.13% and 0.81% were held in intangible assets, prepayments and other receivables respectively. Also 40.19% of the current assets were held in trade and other receivables while 35.03%, 1.73%, 20.70% and 2.35% were held in inventories, prepayment, cash and cash equivalent, and others.

They should also reduce over investment on Property, Plant & Equipment and focus on utilizing the already existing ones fully. Investment in current assets and intangible assets should be guided by other considerations to reduce the costs involved in holding inventory.
