ABSTRACT
Money is important to our everyday lives to satisfy our needs that we need every
day, including the student. Every student has a responsibility to pass their requirements
(e.g. activities, lectures, seat works, projects, etc.) to get their passing grade. In
quantitative research that is conducted by researchers, we able to find out the relationship
between allowances of the students that their parents gave and the academic performance
that they need to accomplish. 50 Grade 12 students were used as the participants of this
study to find the relationship between allowance and academic performance. Simple
random sampling technique was used to find the participants of the study. Result shows
that majority of them can maintain their grades to have a passing grade in this school year
and majority of them can buy their needs in school because of the amount of money that
parents gave is enough for them. By using Pearson’s Correlation, we found out that there

Introduction
This chapter tells the history and problem of the study. It includes the background
of the study, statement of the problem, significance of the study, and the scope and
delimitation.
Daily allowance is the amount of money that student has and it is the basis to buy
the needs of student (Sollano, Duhaylongsod, Aviso, & Moneva, 2018). Parents are
responsible in giving enough resources to their children such as monetary resource for
their needs, personally and academically. The allowance that their parents gave may
depend on the satisfaction of their children. As the child grows, the expenses are growing
bigger that their parents need to learn how to budget and spend their money in times they
need it. Education is one of the important aspects that not only to improve their skills and
knowledge, but it is also helping them to improve one's nation (Kapur, 2018). It is one of
our parent’s treasure that we passed to our children and we promised to our parents that

However, socio-economic status may also directly affect the academic
performance in school that parents need to equip their children with support, physically,
emotionally, and mentally. Having a lack of resources may also have a negative effect of
the student and affects the life of a student, especially their academic performance in
school.
In her study, 60% are associated with their academic performance who works in
more than 20 hours. 32% and 36% of them are concerned in their academic performance
and 27% and 34% of them did not afford to buy academic materials because of the cost

information about the allowance and academic performance and find out the relationship
The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between the allowance
and academic performance and how these two variables affect the life of the student.

delimits to get their wants and needs (Legaspi, Ricalde, & Villa, 2014). In their study,
they concluded that socio-economic status can affect their levels of academic
achievement due to low income from their parents (Adzido, Dzogbede, Ahiave, &

resources that they need, personally or material. According to Kim, LaTaillade, and Kim

(2014), financial status may depends on the source of income that they get that self-
sponsored students are satisfied than they get from their parents or in scholarship grant. In
their study, they concluded that the respondents are financially literate but they did not
exert an effort to save their money in their future (Pillai, Carlo, & D’souza, 2010).

METHODOLOGIES OF RESEARCH
Research Design
A research design guides the research that you conducted and may be valid if the
conclusion is accurate (Akhtar, 2016). The researchers use correlational research design
to determine the relationship between the daily allowance of a student and their academic
performance. The correlational research design can be used to determine the relationship
among variables and predicts current data and knowledge (Curtis, Comiskey, &
Dempsey, n.d.).
The population of the study can be used includes the Grade 12 students of

From the study that conducted, here are the recommendations that we give:
1. Parents should give enough money for their children to buy their needs in school.
2. Students should know how to budget their money, so that they have money left in
3. Teachers and parents should give the importance of the money to their children
and teach them how to budget and save their money at their early age.
4. Researchers should find the research design that fits in their research topic and
