INTRODUCTION

A cooperative (also known as co-operative, co-op, or coop) is an autonomous association


of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social, and cultural needs and
aspirations through a jointly-owned and democratically-controlled enterprise. According to
REPUBLIC ACT No. 9520, there are seven cooperative principles which are: Voluntary and
Open Membership; Democrative Control; Member Economic Participation; Autonomy and
Independence; Education, Training and Information; Cooperation among Cooperatives; and
Concern for Community. The seventh principle which is the Concern for Community is related
to this study. This principle means that cooperatives work for the sustainable development of
their communities. Cooperatives frequently have social goals which they aim to accomplish by
investing a proportion of trading profits back into their communities. This proportion of trading
profits, which also called net surplus, is being allocated in one of the Philippine cooperatives’
fund which is called community development fund. Community development fund was being
spent for the sustainable development of cooperatives’ communities through policies approved
by their members.
The Philippine Cooperative Code of 2008 (RA 9520) requires all types of cooperatives to
allocate their net surplus every year. The net surplus of every cooperative shall be distributed to
the reserve fund, education and training fund, community development fund, optional fund, and
the remaining net surplus shall be made available to the members. In this research, different
community development fund management will be studied. Article 86 (3) of RA 9520 states that,
“An amount for the community development fund, which shall not be less than three per centum
(3%) of the net surplus. The community development fund shall be used for projects or activities
that will benefit the community where the cooperative operates. On July 15, 2019 a
memorandum circular no. 2019-11 also known as the “POLICY GUIDELINES GOVERNING
THE ALLOCATION AND UTILIZATION OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FUND
(CDF) OF THE COOPERATIVE” has been implemented to all cooperatives. This will support

1
the RA 9520 and pursuant to Section 3 (I) of R.A. 6939 it will strengthen the policy in governing
the allocation and utilization of the community development fund of the cooperatives.
The primary objective of every cooperative is to help improve the quality of life of its
members but they also have responsibilities to the communities within their boundaries. Having
an effective and efficient management of cooperative community development fund is very
beneficial for the community in their environment. It will not only help the community to bloom
economically but it can also help the cooperative to build a good relationship to the community.
There are many ways of spending cooperative’ community development fund. Some examples of
these are helping the needy and oppressed like helping the children and senior citizen in the
community by giving them gifts such as school supplies and toys for children, medicine for
senior citizens, and whatever they need that are necessary for their daily survival. They can also
hold seminars about health and daily lifestyle, business, and etc. The cooperative can also help
their community by restoring the natural resources of the environment especially if they are
using natural resources in operating their enterprise. For example, planting trees as a
compensation for cutting of trees for constructing a building to promote sustainable development
and environmental protection. By doing these, the people in the community can continue to
enjoy the natural environment while experiencing economic growth.
But, where does the cooperative spend their community development fund? When do
they spend it? How they spend it? Does it really help the community? Does the MC no. 2019-11
really affects the management of community development fund? This research will answer these
questions along with the different management of cooperatives’ community development fund in
La Trinidad, Benguet.

Literature Review
The Community development fund or CDF shall be used for projects or activities that
will benefit the community where the cooperative operates. The concern of the study is to
determine how this fund is allocated and to what area are prioritized in the distribution of the
fund. Health and sanitation; education; mutual aid or death aid; calamity assistance;
environmental concerns; support to elderly, persons with disabilities, solo parents, children,
gender and development, anti-drug campaign, and peace and order; infrastructure; and livelihood
for non-members should be considered in the utilization of the CDF (Lotes P. Lab-oyan,
2019,"Community Development Fund of Cooperatives",
http://www.baguioheraldexpressonline.com).
Based on the recent study conducted by the Benguet State University-Institute of Social
Research that was published by Sunstar Baguio, on actual usage of the CDF, cooperatives in the
Cordillera Administrative Region spent an average of P51,827 per year based on a survey of
actual community projects and activities implemented by cooperatives in the last five years. The
most common community development projects implemented by cooperatives are support
services or programs in relation to primary and secondary education; health; environment; and
culture. Often in cooperation and collaboration with line agencies and barangay LGUs, there is
success in the implementation of these projects conducted or funded from the Community
Development Fund of cooperatives.
Furthermore, one point of interest that this study aims to achieve is to determine if the
utilization of the CDF is inclined with its purpose. The data analysis for CDF for Mwea
constituency shows that, though the project purposes were to benefit the community, only the
influential people were involved in implementing them.

2
Non-governmental and private sectors are important players in governance and
cooperatives lie hidden as either both. It is stated that the success of a cooperative is beneficial to
the local economy. Allocating a part of its surplus to the community for its development. (Dr.
Edna Co., “Taking Stock: Philippine Experiences in Cooperative – LGU Collaboration”)

Theoretical/Conceptual Framework/Paradigm of the Study


To identify the challenges faced by the cooperatives due to the Memorandum Circular no.
2019-11 and to fill the knowledge gap, the team will use a quantitative research. In quantitative
research, the team will gather many reliable evidences and information as much as possible
instead of getting a short quantity but high quality information. This method was use to gather
much data as we need and compare it to each other and draw a conclusion about it. The team will
gather data in the cooperatives in La Trinidad, Benguet. Among the four main types of
quantitative research, which are Descriptive Design, Correlational Design, Quasi-Experimental
Design, and Experimental Design, the team will use the Descriptive Design, Descriptive design
is also sometimes called Survey Research and it is the most fundamental tool for all quantitative
research methodologies and studies. Descriptive Design seeks to describe the current status of a
variable or phenomenon. The researcher does not begin with a hypothesis, but typically develops
one after the data is collected. Data collection is mostly observational in nature (Hina Fatima,
2019).
There are two types of research paradigm which are called positivist paradigm and
interpretivist paradigm. Positivist paradigm is usually being used in a quantitative research while
interpretivist is usually being used in a qualitative research. Since the team will use a quantitative
research, the team will also use a positivist paradigm. Positivists believe that the findings of one
study can be generalized to another study of a similar kind regardless of it is conducted in a
different environment and situations (readingcraze).

Significance of the Study


It is known that cooperatives are a great help to the community. They provide
employment to the residents and the goods and/or services they offer are greater in comparison
to other. The significance of the study is to identify the challenges faced by the cooperatives in
La Trinidad, Benguet that are already following the Memorandum Circular no. 2019-11. It will
increase the awareness of the people in the community and its members and how cooperative
manages its transaction. Raising awareness is much needed as Cooperative Development Fund is
one of the direct help that a cooperative give to the community. The findings will help the
administrators of the cooperative align their goals and objectives toward the growth of the
cooperative and improve its operation. This is to inform and expand the understanding of
incoming and existing members of the cooperative on how cooperative works and their
responsibilities as part of the entity. The result of the study may be used by the administrators in
implementing new policies and strengthen their operations to grow and increase its value. The
acquired information may also be used by the cooperatives identify areas of improvement in their
operation while expanding its horizon and serving the needs of its member. The results of this
study would make a significant difference to the cooperative community in the province. The
cooperatives would be aware about the current operations regarding the management of their
funds as well as the financial problems they currently experience so as to be of better position to

3
uplift the livelihood, welfare, and economic status of the communities whom they served. The
results may use by the cooperatives to identify areas of improvement in their operation while
expanding its horizon and serving the needs of its member. It serves as a guide for the
administrators of cooperatives in better administering and managing cooperatives. The
cooperative policy makers would get ideas to update or improve old policies as well as the
making of new policies for the regulation of cooperatives. This would likewise provide insights
for Cooperative Development Authority about the effects of their implemented Memorandum
Circular no. 2019-11 that they may take into consideration when administering interventions for
the continuing growth and development of cooperatives in the province.

Aims and Objectives of the Study


The fundamental aim of this study is to evaluate and assess the management of
Community Development Fund as a tool for community development. The objectives of
the study are:
 To assess the effectivity of CDF management of Benguet Cooperatives.
 To identify the challenges faced by the cooperatives due to the implementation of the
CDA Memorandum Circular no. 2019-11.
 To examine the level of management involvement in the utilization of the fund.
 To identify the causes of poor management of cooperative funds focusing on its impact in
community development
 To identify the effectiveness of the cooperatives’ current management in spending their
CDF by comparing outputs against stated objectives.
 To determine what projects have been supported by the CDF.
 To determine how the cooperatives select projects on which CDF is utilized.
 To analyze how cooperative funds are being allocated and how it contributes to
community development.
 To provide possible strategies and ideas to help Benguet cooperatives in properly
allocating their funds in developing the community.
 To give awareness to the cooperatives about the needs of the community.
 To present possible actions to take for better improvement of CDF management.

METHODOLOGY

Study Design
This study focuses on cooperatives operating at La Trinidad, Benguet. The ultimate
respondents of the study are the representatives of each cooperative registered under Cooperative
Development Authority to obtain information regarding its operation through the questionnaires
prepared by the proponents and validated by Research and Development Center of University of
Baguio. The proponents choose descriptive design to collect information from the respondents
regarding its cash fund management. The responses will be accumulated to assess and
understand the transaction and operations of the cooperative as well as the differences and
commonality of the answer of each respondent before drawing a conclusion.

Sample/ Population of the study

4
The sample population is determined by the location of the research in this case we are
conducting our research in La Trinidad, Benguet about its cooperatives. We listed the available
cooperatives to be interviewed their names are listed below:

The target population for this research includes the representative of each cooperative in
La Trinidad, Benguet. In this study, we will gather information through the representatives of the
cooperatives to be interviewed. For some studies, this number of population may not be enough
but it can surely satisfy the research to be conducted. Gathering information about community
development fund management of cooperative through a knowledgeable representative will be a
great help.

Data gathering tools


For the purposes of this research, face-to-face interviews were used to gather data.
Face to face personal interview is considered to be the most common data collection
instrument for qualitative research, primarily because of its personal approach (Anastasia,
2017). Considering data collection tools, the interview is conducted by the use of pre-
constructed questionnaires which was used as an interview guide for the interviewer and
was prepared to guide the researcher in performing the interview for the satisfaction of
the research objectives.

The following are some of the interview questions:

1. Please tell us a little bit about yourself and what you do for the cooperative.
2. What are *cooperative name*'s goals for the community?
3. How is the cooperative's CDF being used to help the community?

5
 How do you conduct your social audit?
4. Do you believe that the programs enacted by the cooperative are sustainable for the
community?
5. How much of the net surplus in percentage is being allocated to the CDF?
6. Do you believe that this percentage is enough to fund the community development
programs in such a way that the programs will be sustainable moving forward?
7. What are the internal controls put into place in the management of the communicty
development fund?
8. Have there been instances wherein the recorded amount and the actual amount of the
community development fund differed?
9. Would you say that these internal controls are sufficient?
10. How has the community response been with regards to the programs enacted by the
cooperative?
11. Personally, how would you like to improve the management of the CDF?
12. What experiences do you have with respects to this particular CDF personnel/
manager position?
13. How often do you conduct projects involving the CDF?
14. When was the last time you’ve conducted projects regarding:
a. Health and sanitation b. Education c. Mutual aid d. Calamity assistance
e. Environmental concerns f. Elderly supports
15. Did the project continued to grow and develop in the community after the
cooperative’s assistance?
16. Could you tell us about how the community continued to sustain the project after the
cooperative’s assistance?
17. What The duties and responsibilities of officers and employees are segregated and
separated.
18. Are the signing authorities clearly defined?
19. Are the accounting records are properly maintained and secured?
20. How do you develop a comprehensive annual work plan for board approval,
including time schedule, budgets and scope?
21. Do the coop follow the developed budget plan?
22. Do the coop prepares audit report on a timely basis?
23. Do the coop provides status reports on a quarterly basis?

6
24. Do the coop follow the implemented Memorandum Circular no. 2019-11?
25. What are the challenges faced by the cooperative in following the MC no 2019-11?
These are accompanied by follow-up questions from the researcher to gain a more
in-depth understanding during the interview.

In addition, the researchers decided to use an observation method. The goal of


using observation as a method is to develop an understanding of the phenomena that is as
objective and accurate as possible provided by the limitations of the method and that it
enhances the quality of data collection and provide more reliable information (DeWALT
and DeWALT, 2002). Observation is done based on the researcher’s experiences upon
encountering several outreach programs and projects contributed by the cooperatives to
the community.

Data Gathering Procedures


The researchers made use of various sources in gathering data. The researchers
have used the allotted time given to read different materials that are relevant to the study
being conducted in developing the questionnaire so as to serve the intended respondents.
The questionnaire consisted of a set of questions that were put forward to participants
drawn from the population under study. After being approved, a requesting letter to
conduct the interview will be presented to the Dean of School of Business Administration
and Accountancy to the selected locale of the study. Some certain questions were
prepared, so as for the researcher to guide the interview encountered during the interview.
The respondents will be informed about the nature of the study. The informed consent of
each respondent will be secured to ensure freedom of choice and provide avenue for the
respondents to voluntarily consent or decline participation in the study. The interview
that will be use in the study is face-to-face interview. The interview involves direct verbal
interaction between the researchers and the respondents. The researchers have maximized
the use of intent to gather related information from journals, researches, and websites.
The researchers are aware of the possible difficulties that there may be throughout the
data collection process

Treatment of Data
The responses to the interview questions by the cooperative respondents were
statistically analyzed with the data requirements of the study. The gathered data were
carefully examined and determined if it is a reliable information or not. Only reliable
information was used in the study. For the researchers to interpret the data gathered,
descriptive and summary statistics were used which shall encompass the measure of
central tendency. Measure of central tendency describes the center position of a
distribution for a data set which shall be determined by computing the mean. The
frequencies, ratios and proportions of the responses shall also be computed. A 0.05 level
of significance will be utilized to result with a 95% confidence level. The 5% level of
significance represents the probability of rejecting a null hypothesis by the test when it is
really true.

Ethical Considerations

7
In order to have a comprehensive research guideline, ethics on research is crucial.
Therefore, in conducting this research, it is assured that research participants should not be
subjected to harm in any ways whatsoever, their safety will always be a priority. Recent
information and valuable data will be used in this study. Before conducting any interviews to the
respondents, it is within reason that consent from these respondents are given and participants
have rights to withdraw from the study at any given time if they wish to do so. Appropriate
permission will be ensured to for the usage of the given information and data. Privacy and
confidentiality will not be taken lightly to ensure the respondents’ safety and security. The
disclosures of the information given will be based on the permission whether they are willing to
disclose their identity or otherwise. Furthermore, the usage of any secondary information and
valuable data from any source will be acknowledged with appropriate reference. Hence, the
ethical aspects mentioned above will be followed with strict compliance in the making of this
