dc.description.abstract	This study presents an investigation on the role of financial statements towards the performance of companies in investment decisions at Coca- Cola Kwanza Limited (CCKL), Dar es Salaam Region. Specifically, the study evaluated the importance of financial statements at CCKL in investment decision making; the accounting system used at CCKL to provide accurate, timely and relevant financial statement; identified problems and challenges faced when preparing financial statements at CCKL and suggested possible solutions. The study also assessed whether there was any need to improve the financial statements reporting at CCKL. The research employed a case study model with both quantitative and qualitative analysis approaches employed. To achieve that goal, both primary and secondary data were collected, and analyzed. Primary data collected through personal interviews, observations and questionnaires (CCKL) came from a sample of 60 respondents randomly selected. Examination of various records, other related literature in books, journals, reports, academic research documents were meant for secondary data. Findings show that financial reports are important in deciding the right investment decisions for a company. In view of that, the study recommends that management establishes a Pre-Audit unit to enable financial statements to be prepared in line with financial reporting framework s or any other regulatory accounting frameworks.	en_US
