ABSTRACT

	Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are crucial in the economy. The growth of SMEs is significantly shaped by their adoption and utilization of technology - one specific advancement is the incorporation of an accounting software with the operation of the business. Hence, this study was conducted to examine how their implementation of accounting software influences their intention to explore and utilize additional accounting software applications.

	This study surveyed selected SMEs in Tagbilaran City. The study utilized a quantitative research method and made use of a survey questionnaire to gather data from 30 SME respondents who are adopters of accounting software. The data gathered were statistically analyzed using percentage, weighted mean, ANOVA, T-test, and Pearson correlation.

	The study found out that the majority of the SME respondents considered perceived usefulness, perceived ease, financial readiness, and external pressure as factors in adopting accounting software. Also, a plurality of adopters are very likely to utilize other applications of accounting software. However, only financial readiness has a significant relationship with the internation to utilize other applications of accounting software. Definitely, the four factors are vital to the initial adoption decision of the entities as they provide benefits in record-keeping and financial information generation.
