Operational Budgeting
CONCEPT REVIEW:
BASIC MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS
Source: Drury
Planning
§ Developing objectives and preparing various budgets to achieve those objectives
Controlling
§ Examining the actual results and compare them with plans, identify any deviations, investigate
reasons for these deviations, and use results for better planning for the next cycle
Points to Recall
¨ The importance of the Vision, Mission, Goals of the organization
¨ The importance of identifying the strategy chosen by the organization
¨ The benefits of using the balanced scorecard
Strategic Planning
The process of deciding on the programs the organization will undertake to implement its strategies
and on the approximate amount of resources to be allocated to each program
Management by Objectives
Tracking managers’ performances against a number of specific objectives expected to be achieved
during a given measurement period
Budget
Æ A quantified plan of action relating to a given period of time
Æ Developed in advance of the period that it covers and is based on forecasts and assumptions
(CMA)
Æ A plan expressed in quantitative, usually monetary, terms covering a specified period of time,
usually one year (Anthony)
Æ The budget and its administration are entirely management’s responsibility
Æ Also called as the “profit plan”
versus
“Budgeted revenue expenditure for the printing department this year is P60,000.”
Preparing a budget for the sake of preparing a budget is pointless. The organization must benefit
from both the process of preparing the budget and from the budget itself as a guide.
A budget is an aid to management; not a substitute for management.
Aspects of Budgeting
1. Managerial Aspect
Ø What managers and others do in the course of preparing or using budgets
2. Technical Aspect
Ø How budget numbers are calculated and assembled
Budget Period
¨ Depends on management
¨ Annual, quarterly, monthly
Budget review
Authoritative Budgeting
§ Imposed budgets; Top-down budgeting
§ Superiors simply tell subordinates what their budgets will be
Participative Budgeting
§ All parties (top, middle, and lower level managers) agree about setting budget targets
§ Eliminates the excuse that the budgets are unrealistic or unattainable
§ Must be reviewed by higher management to prevent budgetary slack
Budgetary Slack
§ Setting revenue or resource targets too low
§ Setting expenditure or outflow targets too high
