Central Point of the Case: The case talks about Vershire’s Biggest division, the
aluminium cans, giving a brief about the evolution of aluminium cans over steel cans. The
case focuses majorly about the Budgetary control System, being pivotal to the organization,
comprises of the sales budget, manufacturing budget, performance measurement and
evaluation and also the management incentives though which Vershire ensures that all the
divisions are in line with the corporate goals and objectives and are evaluated accordingly.
Learning from the case: Involvement of district sales manager to finalise budget
while sales forecast assumptions were drawn at the corporate head office, this budgeting
system is not much flexible, but pushes managers to meet the objectives. Plant production
activities are influenced by the sales department, which in turn reflects the customer
sentiments. Linkage of the promotions and compensations of the employees’ based on the
profit performance of the plant, which may lead to the trade-off scenario between quality and
cost, and might also affect the objectives of the plant. Timely communication between
managers of various levels as there are less tiers in the organisation structure.
