“ a plan expressed in money it is prepared and approve prior to the
budget period and may show income ,expenditure and the capital to be
employed may be drawn up showing incremental effect on former
budgeted or actual figures or be compiled by zero based budgeting”.

implication of the course of action that management has decided to
follow in the immediate next Period of the time(usually a year).

operating budget. The main emphasizes in this short term budgeting

responsibility of the executive to the requirement of the policy and the
continuous comparison of the actual with budget is result either to
secure by the individual action the objective of that policy or to
provide a firm base For its revision”. budgetary control system secure
control over the performance and the cost in the different part of the
business.
The budget is a blueprint of projected plan and budgetary control is act
of adhering to the planning in fact budgetary control involve the
continuous comparison of the actual results with the budgets and
taking the appropriate remedial action promptly.

against the predetermined one if the ship is of its course the navigating
officer must report his captain immediately so that the captain may
take a prompt action to regain his correct course correct course”

comparing the actual attainment against the budget and by taking
corrective action and remedial measure or revision of the budget if
necessary.

The following steps should be considered in detail for sound budget
and for successful implementation of the budgetary control system

functional representative of Executive responsible for accomplishment
of the organisational objectives ,This chart shows:

production budget and the finance manager has to be consulted for
preparation of cash budget.

standing instruction governing the responsibility of the person and the
procedure, form and the record relating to the preparation and use of
the budget it is a booklet content standing instruction regarding the
procedure to be followed and I am scheduled to be observed.

4. Budget committee:

in an organisation, it is a powerful force in knitting together the
various activities of the business and enforcing real control over the
operations.

5. Budget controller:
Two line of the various function of budget committee, to bring them
together and to co-ordinate the effort in method of preparation of
target figures, there should be a person usual designated as project
controller who can provide a ready data relating to all functions. He is
more or less a secretary of budget committee.
6. Budget period:
CIMA defence budget period as “the period for which budget is
prepared and used, which may then be subdivided into control
period” budget period has been divided into long term budget period
and short term budget period, the short term budget period itself
indicate that it is it could be bifurcated into yearly and quarterly
budget, long term budget provide the perspective since one would be
able to view of what it is likely to be achieved and what the chief
problems are likely to be such as competition from product.

7. Budget key factor:


Budget key factor are the factor which influence the budget of firm.
For example if sales department could only sell 50000 units it is of no
use producing 100000 unit by Production department, vice versa is
production department has the capacity of producing 50000 units then
sales department cannot sell 100000 unit.

8. Budget report:
Establishing budget in in itself is of no use unless a comparison is
made regularly between the actual expenditure and the budget
allowance and the results should be reported to the management ,for
this purpose budget report should show the comparison between the
actual and the budgeted expenditures and it should be presented
periodically and promptly, the report should be prepared in such
manner that they reveal the responsibility of the department of the
executive and give reason for the various so that a proper corrective
actions may be taken.

which it relates.

unnecessary details.
 Express as far as possible in direct figures.
 Correlated to correlated to money value whenever possible.
 Free from personal bias of the person preparing it.
 Dated and signed by those who prepare and check it.

WHY COMPARE ACTUAL AND BUDGET?


One of the objectives of budgeting is to provide a base against which
actual performance can be measured. This is only worth doing if
action will be taken as a result .In too many organisations the
production of results compared to budget is seen as the end of the
process. If no action is taken on the basis of management accounts
then there is little point in producing them and even less point in
wasting management time discussing them.
