Planning ProcessPlanning ProcessBudgeting is a tool of planning. Planning involves specification of
the basic objectives that the organisation will pursue and the fundamental policies that will guide it. In operational terms,
it involves four steps:
(1) Objectives
Objectives are broad and long-range desired state or position in future.
(2) Goals
Goals are quantitative targets to be achieved in specified period.
(3) Strategies
Strategies represent specific course of action to achieve goals.
(4) Plans
The final step is the preparation of budgets/profit plans. It converts goals and strategies into annual operating plans..

BudgetBudget
A budget is defined as a comprehensive and coordinated plan, expressed in financial terms, for the operations and resources of an enterprise for some specified period in the future. The essential elements of a budget are:
(1) Plan
(2) Financial terms
(3) Operations and resources
(4) Specific future period
(5) Comprehensive coverage
(6) Coordination
![Page 5: Budgetary Control](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052205/54761e92b4af9fc7648b45a5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The first ingredient of a budget is its plan. It includes two aspects which have a bearing on the operations of an enterprise. One set of factors, which determine a firm’s future operations are wholly external and beyond its control. The second set of factors affecting future activities are within the firm’s control and discretion, that is, they are internal.
A budget is a mechanism to plan for the firm’s operations and resources. The operations are reflected in revenues and expenses. The plan also covers the resources of the firm. The planning of resources means the planning of the various assets and the sources of capital to finance these assets. The assets could be fixed assets as well as current assets.
Budgets are prepared in financial terms, that is, in terms of monetary value such as the rupee, dollar, and so on. The reason is that the monetary unit is a common denominator.
1. Plan
2. Operations and Resources
3. Financial Terms
![Page 6: Budgetary Control](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052205/54761e92b4af9fc7648b45a5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
A budget relates to a specified period of time, usually one year.
A budget is comprehensive in that all the activities and operations of an organisation are included in it. It covers the organisation as a whole and not only some segments. The modus operandi is that budgets are prepared for each segment/facet/activity/division of an organisation.
Budgets are prepared for the different components/ segments/divisions/ facets/activities of an organisation so as to take care of the situations and problems of each component. The budgets for each of the components are prepared in harmony with each another. This is called coordination.
4. Specified Future Period
5. Comprehensiveness
6. Coordination

Budget PurposeBudget Purpose
The main objectives of budgeting are:
1. Explicit statement of expectations
2. Communication
3. Coordination,
4. Expectations as a framework for judging performance
![Page 8: Budgetary Control](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052205/54761e92b4af9fc7648b45a5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
One purpose of budgeting is to state expectations in formal terms so that most of the underlying assumptions may be identified. A firm has the
basic objective of optimising long-run profit. Its long-range goals also include survival, consumer satisfaction, employee
welfare, personal power and prestige, and so on.
Another purpose of budgeting is to communicate or inform others of the goals and methods selected by top management. Since budgeting
deals with fundamental policies and objectives, it is prepared by top management.
However, a budget does not lay down a statement of expectations in rigid terms. A budget should be modified when necessary in the light of
the changes in the factors/assumptions on which the original estimates were based.
1. Explicit Statement of Expectations
2. Communication
![Page 9: Budgetary Control](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052205/54761e92b4af9fc7648b45a5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Yet another purpose of budgeting is coordination. The term ‘coordination’ refers to the operation of all departments of an organisation in
such a way that there is no bottleneck or imbalance.
Finally, a budget establishes expectations as a framework for judging employee performance.
In view of the above, coordination is a major function of budgeting. Budgets should be drafted in such a way that the operations
of the various departments are related to each other for the achievement of the overall goal.
3. Coordination
4. Expectations as a Framework for Judging Performance

TYPES OF BUDGETSTYPES OF BUDGETS
The overall budget is known as the master budget. A master budget normally consists of three
types of budgets:
(i) Operating Budgets (i) Operating Budgets
(ii) Financial Budgets(ii) Financial Budgets
(iii) Special Decision Budgets (iii) Special Decision Budgets

Operating budgets relate to physical activities/ operations such as sales, production,
and so on.
Operating budget has the following components

Financial budgets are concerned with expected cash flows, financial position and
result of operations.
Financial budget has the following components

Cash BudgetCash BudgetCash budget is a device to help a firm to plan for and control the use of cash. It is a statement showing the estimated cash inflows and cash outflows over the planning period. The principal aim of the cash budget, as a tool to predict cash flows over a period of time, is to ascertain whether there is likely to be excess/shortage of cash at any time.
The preparation of a cash budget involves several steps.
The first element of a cash budget is the selection of the period of the budget, that is, the planning horizon.
The second element of the cash budget is the selection/identification of the factors that have a bearing on cash flows.
The factors that generate cash are generally divided into two broad categories:
(i) Operating (ii) Financial

Special Decision BudgetsSpecial Decision BudgetsThe third category of budgets are special decision
budgets. They relate to inventory levels, break-even analysis, and so on.
Fixed Budgets
Budgets prepared at a single level of activity, with no prospect of modification in the light of changed circumstances, are referred to as fixed budgets.
Flexible Budgets
The alternative to fixed budgets are flexible/variable/sliding budgets
Fixed and Flexible BudgetsFixed and Flexible Budgets
![Page 25: Budgetary Control](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052205/54761e92b4af9fc7648b45a5/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Flexible BudgetsFlexible BudgetsThe term ‘flexible’ is an apt description of the essential features of these budgets. A flexible budget estimates costs at several levels of activity.
Its merit is that instead of one estimate, it contains several estimates/plans in different assumed circumstances. It is a useful tool in real world situations, that is, unpredictable environment.
A flexible budget, in a sense, is a series of fixed budgets and any increase/decrease in the level/volume of activity must be reflected in it.
![Page 26: Budgetary Control](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052205/54761e92b4af9fc7648b45a5/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Each expense in each department/segment is to be categorised into fixed, variable and mixed components. A budget may first be prepared at the expected level of activity, say, 100 per cent capacity. Additional columns may then be added for costs below and above, 90 per cent and 110 per cent capacity and so on.
The conceptual framework of flexible budgeting relates to: (i) Measure of volume and (ii) Cost behaviour with change in volume
