Limitations of Budgetary Control:
The preparation of a budget under inflationary conditions and changing
Government policies is really difficult. Thus, the accurate position of the business
can not be estimated.
Accuracy in budgeting comes through expenditure. Hence it should not be relied on
too much in the initial stages.
Budget is only a management tool. It is not a substitute for management. It can not
replace management in decision making.
Budgeting involves a heavy expenditure, which small concerns cannot afford.
There will be active and passive resistance to budgetary control as it points out the
efficiency or inefficiency of individuals.
The success of budgetary control depends upon wiling co-operation and team work.
This is often lacking.
Frequent changes maybe called for in budgets due to fast changing industrial
climate. It may be difficult for a company to keep pace with these fast changes,
because revision of budgets is expensive exercise.

OBJECTIVES OF BUDGETARY CONTROL:
Planning:
A budget is a plan of the policy to be pursued during the defined period of time to
attain a given objective. The budgetary control will force management at all the activities tobe done during the future periods. A budget as a plan of action achieves the following
purposes:

careful sturdy and research.
The budget serves as a mechanism through which.
Managements objectives and policies are affected.
It is a bridge through which communication is establishment between the top
management and the operatives who are to implement the policies of the top
management.
The most profitable course of action is selected from the various available
alternatives.
Co-ordination:
The budgetary control co-ordinates the various activities of the firm and secures
co-operation of all concerned so that the common objective of the firm may be successfully
achieved. It forces executives to think and think as a group. It co-coordinating the policies,

chartered sea. A budget gives direction to the business and imparts meaning and
significance to its achievement by making comparison of actual performance and budgeted

Motivation:
It employees have actively participated in budget preparation and if they are
convinced that their personal interests are closely associated with the success of
organizational plan, budgets provide motivation in the form of goals to be achieved. The
budgets will motivate the workers, depends purely on how the workers have been mentally
and physically involved with the process of budgeting.
Control:
Control consists of the action necessary to ensure the performance of the
organization conforms to the plans and objectives. Control of performance is possible with
predetermined standards which are laid down in a budget. Thus, budgetary control makes
control possible by continuous comparison of actual performance with that of the budget so
as to report the variations from the budget to the management of corrective action.
Thus, budgeting system integrates key managerial functions as it links top
managements planning function with the control function performed at all levels in the
managerial hierarchy. But the efficiency of the budget as a planning and control device
depends upon the activity in which it is being used. A more accurate budget can be
developed for those activities where direct relationship exists between inputs and outputs.
The relationship between inputs and outputs becomes the basis for developing budgets and
exercising control.

to executives and departmental heads responsible for various departmental objectives.
Communication:
The employees of an organization should know organizational aims, objectives of
subunits (budgets centers) and the part that they have to play for their attainment. Budgets
effectively communicate this information to employees. Besides, budges keep different
sections of the organization informed about the contribution of different subunits in the
attainment of overall organizational objective.
Budget procedures:
Having the budget organization and fixed the period, the actual work or budgetary
control can be taken upon the following pattern.
STEPS IN BUDGETING CONROL:
Organization for budgeting:
The setting up of a definite plan of organization is the first step towards installing

control system. CIMA England defines a budget manual as a document schedule or
booklet which sets out, inter alia, the routine of and the forms and records required for

various budgets. Budgets are to be drawn keeping in view the objectives of the
organization given in the budget manual. Responsibility and functions of each executive in
regard to budgeting are written down in the budget manual to avoid any duplication or
overlapping of responsibilities. Steps and the methods for developing various budgets and
the methods of reporting performance against the budget are written down in the budget
manual. In short it is a written document which gives everything relating to the preparation
and execution of various budgets. It should be clear and there should be no ambiguity in it.
The following are some of the most important matters covered in a Budget manual:
a) Introducing and brief explanation of the objects, benefits and principles of
budgetary control.
b) Organization chart giving the titles to different personnels with full explanation
of the duties of each to operating system and preparation of departmental and
functional budgets.
c) Length of budget periods and control periods should be clearly stated.
d) A method of accounting and control of expenditure.
e) A statement showing the responsibility and of authority given to each manger
for approval of budgets, vouchers and all other forms and documents which
authorize them to spend the money. The authority for granting approval must be
clearly stated.
f) The entire process of budgeting programme including the time table for
periodical reporting. A schedule should be drawn for this.
g) Purpose, specimen form and number of copies to be used for each report and
statement. Budget centers involved should also be stated clearly.
h) Outline of main budgets and their accounting relationships.

i) Explanation of key budgets.
FIXATION OF BUDGET PERIOD:
The budget period mean the period for which a budget is prepared and employed.
The budget period will depend upon the type of business and the control aspect.
Budget period mean the period for which a budge is prepared and employed. The
budget period depends upon the nature of the business and the control techniques. For
example, in case of seasonal industries (i.e., food or clothing) the budget period should be a
short one and should cover one season. But in case of industries with heavy capitalexpenditure such as heavy engineering works, the budget period should be long enough to
meet the requirements of the business. From control point of view, the budget period
should be a short one so that the actual results may be compared with the budget each week
end or month end and discussed with and discussed with the Budget committee. Long term
budgets should be supplemented by short term budgets to make the budgetary control
successful, as short-terms budgets will helping exercising control over day-today
operations. In short, the budget period should not be too long so that there may be
sufficient time before budget implementation. For most business, annual budget is quite
common because it compares with the financial accounting year.
There should be a regular time plan for budget preparation. It may be on the following
lines.
Long-term budgets for three to five years should be prepared for expansion and
modernization of the undertaking, introduction of new products or new projects and
undertaking heavy advertisement.
Annual budgets coinciding with financial accounting year should be prepared for
the operations activities (i.e., sales, purchases, and production etc, of the business)
For control purposes, short-term budgets-monthly or even weekly budget-should be
prepared for watching progress of actual performance against targets. Short-term
28
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
29/84
budgets are prepared to see that actual performance is proceeding according to the
budgets and early corrective action may be taken if there is any pitfall.
The responsibility for preparation and implementation of the budgets may be fixed
as under.
Budgetary controller:
Although the chief executive l finally responsible for the budgetary programme. It
is better if a large part of the supervisory responsibility is deluged to an official designated
as Budget Controller or Budget Director. Such a person should have knowledge of the
technical details of the business and report directly to the president or the chief executive.
Rolling (Continues) Budget:
This is a budget which is updated continuously by adding a further period (a
month\quarter) and deducting a corresponding earlier period. Budgeting is a continuous
process under these methods of preparation of budget. Once the first period elapses, the
forecast for that period is dropped and the forecast for the future period beyond the existing
could not be predicted and forecast reliably, this method is useful. However, it is a costly
exercise but matched by considerable reduction in operational variances.
Annual Vs Continues budgeting system:
In some organizations budgets are prepared on annual basis. But annual budgets
may not help the management to have control because variances due to rapidly changing
conditions affect the sales in quantity and prices, severe rapidly changing conditions affect
the sales in quantity and prices, severe inflationary conditions exist resulting fast increase
in the prices of inputs without reflecting in sales prices immediately and wide range of
29
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
30/84
products being produced making it not feasible to have precise estimate of levels of activity
for a year.
The procedure in continuous budgeting will be that a year will be divided into four
quarters. Monthly budgets for the first quarter and three quarterly budgets for the next year
can be prepared. For the first quarter precise estimates can be drawn up monthly. The
budget estimates for the second quarter may be revised working out separately monthly
estimates on more precise basis for control purposes before the starting of the second
quarter.
Similarly procedure may be followed for third and fourth quarters. This method a time
which need not be in respect of or coincide with the financial year. It will enable to evolve
a precise plan of action and control of variance functions at least for the immediate quarter
and a broad tentative one the subsequent three quarters on a continues basis.
Principal Budget (limiting) factor:
Principal budget factor is such an important factor that it would affect all the
functional budgets to a large extent. The extent of its influence must be assessed first in
order to ensure that functional budgets are reasonably capable of fulfillment. This is the
factor in the activities of an undertaking which at a particular point in time or over a period
will limit the volume of output. It is the governing factor which is a major constraint on all
the operational activities of the organization, so this factor is taken into consideration to
determine whether the budgets are capable of attainment. It is essential to locate the
limiting factor may be any one of the following:
Is there sufficient demand for the product? (customer demand)
Will a required quality and quantity of materials be available? (availability of raw material)
Is the plant capacity sufficient to cope up with the expected sales? (plant capacity)
Is the required type of labor available? (available of labor)
Is cash position sufficient to finance the expected volume of sales? (cash position)
Are there any Government restrictions? (Government restrictions)
30
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
31/84
For example, a concern has the capacity to produce 50,000 units of particular item per year.
But only 30, 000 units can be sold in the market. In this case, low demand for the product is
the limiting factor. Therefore, sales budget should be prepared first and other functional
budgets such as production budget, labor budget, plant utilization budget, cash budget etc.
should be prepared in accordance with this case plant capacity is limited. Therefore,
production budget should be prepared first and other budgets should follow the production
budget.
Thus, the budget relating to limiting factor should be prepared first and the other
budgets should be prepared in the light of that factor. All budgets should be co-coordinated
keeping in view the principal budget factor if the budgetary control is to achieve the desired
results.
Principal budget factor is not static. It may vary rapidly from time to time due to
internal and external factors. It is of temporary nature and in the long run can be overcome
by suitable management taking sales promotion steps as increasing sales staff and
advertising. Plant capacity can be improved by better planning, simplification of product or
extension of plant.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF BUDGET:
Different types of budgets have been developed keeping in view the different
purposes they serve. Budgets can be classified according to:
The coverage they encompass;
The capacity to which they are related;
The conditions on which they are based; and
The periods which they cover.
Functional Budget:
31
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
32/84
A functional budget is a budget which relates to any of the functions of an
undertaking e.g., sales, production, research and development, cash etc, the following
budgets are generally prepared.
Budget prepared by
1. Sales Budget including selling and Sales Manager
Distribution Cost Budget
2. Production Budget Production Manager
3. Material Budget Purchase Manager
4. Labor and Personnel Budget Personnel Manager
5. Manufacturing Overheads Production Manager
6. Administration Cost Budget Finance Manager
7. Plant Utilization Budget Production Manager
8. Capital Expenditure Budget Chief Executive
9. Research and Development
Cost Budget R&D Manager
10. Cash Budget Finance Manager
Sales Budget:
Sales budget is the most important budget and of primary importance. It forms the
basis on which all the budgets are built up. This budget is a forecast of quantities and
values of sales to be achieved in a budget in a budget period. Every effort should be made
to ensure that its figures are as accurate as possible because this is usually the starting
budget (sales being limiting factor on which all the other budgets are built up). The sales
32
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
33/84
Manger should be made directly responsible for the preparation and execution of the
budget. The sales budget may be prepared according to products, sales territories, types of
customers; salesmen etc., in the preparation of the sales budget, the sales manager should
take into consideration the following factors:
1. Past Sales Figures and Trends.
2. Salesmens Estimation.
3. Plant Capacity.
4. Availability of Raw Material and other Supplies.
5. General Trade Prospects.
6. Orders in Hand.
7. Seasonal Fluctuations.
8. Financial Aspect.
9. Adequate Return on Capital Employed.
10. Competition.
11. Miscellaneous Considerations.
Production Budget:
Production budget is a forecast of the total output of the whole organization broken
down into estimates of output of each type of product with a scheduling of operations (by
weeks and months) to be performed and a forecast of the closing finished stock. This
budget may be expressed in quantitative (weight, units etc) r financial (rupees) units or
both. This budget is prepared after taking into consideration the estimated opening stock,
the estimated sales and the desired closing finished stock of each product. The works
manger is responsible for the total production budget and the departmental managers are
33
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
34/84
responsible for the departmental production budget. In preparing the production budget, the
following factors are considered.
The time lag between the production in the factor and sales to the customer should
be considered so as to allow fro the time required or the dispatch of goods from the factory
to the place of the customers.
The stock of goods to be maintained both at the factorys go gown and at he sales centers.
The level of production needed to meet the sales programme. Monthly production
targets should be fixed and it should be seen that production is kept more or less at uniform
level throughout the year. The material labor and plant requirements should be ascertained
to have the desired production to meet the sales programme.
The sales and the production are inter-dependant because production budget
is governed by the sales budget and the sales budget is largely determined by the
production capacity and by production costs.
Cost of production Budget:
After determining the volume of output the cost of procuring the output must be
obtained by preparing a cost of production budget. This budget is an estimate of cost of
output planned for a budget period and may be classified into material cost budget, labor
cost budget and overhead budget because cost of production includes material, labor and
overheads.
Materials Budget:
In drawing up the production budget, one of the first requirements to be considered
is material. As we know, materials may be direct or indirect. The materials budget dealswith the requirements and procurement of direct materials. Indirect materials are dealt with
34
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
35/84
under the works overhead budget. The budget should be related to the production budget
and the period of the budget should be of short duration because this budget has an
important bearing on the cash budget.
Purchase Budget:
Purchase Budget is mainly dependent on production budget and material
requirement budget. This budget provides information about the materials to be acquired
from the market during the budget period.
Purchase budget should be prepared by the purchase manger by getting relevant
information about capital items, tools, general supplies and direct materials required during
the budget period from other related departments. Like other budgets, the purchase budget
has to be approved by the budget committee. After approval it becomes the responsibility
of the purchase officer to see that purchases are made as per the purchase budget.
Sometimes additional purchases which are not covered by the purchase budget are made
under the following circumstances.
If there is increase in production not anticipated while preparing the purchase
budget and purchase of larger quantities of materials becomes necessary.
If accumulation of stock becomes necessary to avoid shortage of materials.
If overstocking is desired to take advantage of lower prices and there is fear that
price will increase in near future.
The purchase manger should get additional sanctions from the higher authorities for
making the additional purchases not covered by the purchase budget.
Direct Labor Budget:
35
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
36/84
This budget gives as estimate of the requirements of direct labor essential to meet
the production target. This budget may be classified into labor Requirements budget and
recruitment budget. The labor recruitment budget is developed on the basis of requirement
of the production budget given and detailed information regarding he different classes of
labor e.g., fitters, welders, turner, millers, and grinders and drillers etc., required for each
department, their scales of pay and hours to be spent. This budget is prepared with a view
too enable the personnel department to carry out programmers of training and transfer and
to find out sources of labour needed so that every effort may be made to remove difficulties
arising in production the available workers in each department, the expected changes in the
labour force during the budget period due to the labour turnover. This budget gives
information about the personnel specification for the jobs for which workers are to be
recruited, the degree for skill and experience required and the rates of pay. Where standard
costing system is applied, the labor cost budget is dev eloped on the basis of standard labor
cost per unit multiplied by the quantity of anticipated production determined in the
production budget. If standard costing system is not being followed in the organization, the
information of labour cost may be obtained from past records or estimated cost.
Sometimes another budget known as Manpower budget is prepared. This budget
gives the requirements of direct and indirect labour necessary to meet the programme set
out in the sales, manufacturing, maintenance, research and development and capital
expenditure budgets. The labor terms are expressed of rupee value, number of labour hours,
number and grade of workers etc. this budget makes provision for shift and overtime work
and for the effective training for new workers on labour cost.
Manufacturing Overheads Budget:
This budget gives an estimate of the works overhead expenses to be incurred in a
budget period to achieve the production target. The budget includes the cost of indirect
material, indirect labour and indirect works expenses. The budget may be classified into
fixed cost, variable cost and semi-variable cost. It can be broken into departmental
overhead budget to facilitate control. In preparing the budget, fixed works overhead can be
estimated on the basis of past information after taking into consideration the expected
changes which may occur during the budget period. Variable expenses are estimated on the
36
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
37/84
basis of the budgeted output because these expenses are bound to change with the change
in output.
The Cost Accountant prepares this budget on the basis of figures available in the
manufacturing overhead ledger or the head of the workshop may be asked to give estimates
for the manufacturing expenses. A good method is to combine the estimates of the Cost
Accountant and the shop executive.
Administrative Expenses Budget:
This budget covers the expenses incurred in framing policies, directing the
organization and controlling the business operations. In other words, the budget provides as
estimate of the expenses of the central office and of management salaries. The budget can
be prepared with the help of past experience and anticipated changes. Budget may be
prepared be prepared for each administration department so that responsibility for
increasing such expenses. This budget covers the expenses incurred in framing policies,
directing the organization and controlling the business operations. In other words, the
budget provides an executive. Much difficulty is not experiences in developing such budget
as most of the administration expenses are of a fixed nature. Although fixed expenses
remain constant and are not related to sale volume in the sort run, they are dependent upon
sales in the long run. With a small change in output, they do not change. However, if there
is persistent fall in output, administration expenses will have to be reduced by discharging
the services of some members of the staff and taking other economy measures. On the
other hand, with persistent increase in output or business activity, administration expenses
will increase but they may lag behind business activity.
Budgeted Income Statement:
A budgeted income statement summarizes all the individual budges i.e., sales
budget, cost of goods sold budget, selling budget, and administrative sales budget. This
budget determines income before taxes. If the tax rate is available net income after taxes
can also be computed.
37

Selling and Distribution Costs Budget:
This budget is the forecast of the cost selling and distribution for budget
period and is clearly related to the sale budget. All expenses related to selling and
distributions of the various products as indicated in the sales budget are included in it.These expenses are based on the volume of sales set in the sales budget and budget and
budgets are prepared for each item of selling and distribution overhead. Long term
expenses.
As advertisement are spread over more than one period. Selling and distribution
overheads are divided into fixed and variable category with reference to volume of sales.
Separate budgets are prepared for variable and fixed items of selling and distribution
overheads. Certain items of selling and distribution costs as cost of transport department
are included in the departmental production cost budget from control point of view rather
that including in selling and distribution costs budget.
Plant Utilization Budget:
This budget lays down the requirements of plant capacity to carry out the
production as per the production programme. This budget is terms of convenient physical
units as weight or number of products or working hours. The main functions of this budget
are:
It will show the machine load in each department during the
Budget period.
It will indicate the overloading on some departments, machine or group of machine
and alternative courses of actions as working overtime, off loading, procurement or
expansion of plants, sub-contracting etc., can be taken.
Idle capacity in some departments may be utilized by making efforts to increase the
demand for the products by providing after sale service, conducting advertisement
campaign, reducing prices, introducing lucky prize coupons, recruiting efficient
sales staff etc.
38

Capital Expenditure Budget:
The capital expenditure budget gives an estimate of the amount of capital that may
be needed for acquiring the assets required for fulfilling production requirements a
specified in the production budget. The budget is prepared after taking into consideration in
the available productive capacities, probable reallocation of the existing assets such as plant
and equipment budget, building budget etc. The capital expenditure budget is an important
budget proving for acquisition of assets, necessitated by the following factors:
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COST BUDGET:
While developing research and development cost budget, it should be clear in mind
that work relating to research and development is different from that relating to the
manufacturing function. Manufacturing function gives quicker results than research and
development which may go on for several years. Therefore, these budgets are established
on a long term basis; say for 5 to 10 years which can be further subdivided into short-term
budgets on annual basis. As a rule research workers are less cost conscious; so they are not
susceptible to strict control. A research and development budget is prepared taking into
consideration the research projects in hand and the new research projects in hand and the
new search and development projects to be taken up. Thus this budget provides an
estimate of the expenditure to be incurred on research and development during the budget
period.
After fixation of the research and development cost budget, the research executive
fixes priorities for the various research and development projects and submits research and
development project authorization forms to the budget committee. The projects are finally
approved by the senior executive. Before giving the approval, the expenditure on research
and development is matched against the benefits likely to be availed of from the new
project; after the approval of the budget, a close watch is kept on the expenditure so that it
may not exceed budget provisions. It is also seen that extent of progress made is
commensurate with the expenditure incurred.
CASH (FINANCIAL) BUDGET:
39
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
40/84
The cash budget can be prepared by any of the following method:
1. Receipts and payments method
2. The adjusted profit and loss method3. The balance sheet method
1. Receipts and payments method: In case of this method the cash receipts from
various sources and the cash payments to various agencies are estimated. In the
opening balance of cash, estimated cash receipts are added and from the total of
estimated cash payments are deducted to find out of the closing balance.
2. The adjusted profit and loss method: In case of this method the cash budget is
prepared n the basis of opening cash and bank balance of the various assets an
liabilities.
3. The balance sheet method: With the help of budget balances at end except cash and
bank balances, a budgeted balance sheet can be prepared and the balancing figure
would be the estimated closing cash\bank balance.
Thus under this method, closing balances, other than cash\bank will have to be found out
first to be put in the budget balance sheet. This can be done by adjusting the anticipated.
Master Budget (Finalized Profit Plan):
The Master Budget is consolidated summary of the various functional budgets. It
has been defined as a summary of the budget schedules in capsule form made for the
purpose of presenting, in one report, the highlights of the budget forecast. The definition
of this budget given by the Chartered Institute of Management Accountant, England, is as
follows:
Thus summary budget incorporating its components functional budgets and which
are finally approved and employed
40
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
41/84
The master budget is prepared by the budget committee on the basis of co-
coordinated functional budgets and becomes the target for the company during the budget
period when it is finally approved by the committee. This budget summaries functional
budget to produce a budgeted Profit and Loss Account and a Budget Balance Sheet as at
the end of the budget period.
Fixed Budget:
This budget is drawn for one level of activity and one set of conditions. It has been
defined as a budget which is designed to remain unchanged irrespective of the volume of
output or turnover attained. It is rigid budget and is drawn on the assumption that there
will be no change in the budgeted level of activity. A fixed budget will, therefore, be
useful only when the actual level of activity corresponds to the budgeted level of activity.
A master budget tailored to a single output level of (say) 20,000 units of sales is a typical
example of a fixed budget. But in practice, the level of activity and set conditions will
change as a result of internal limitations and external factors like changes in demand and
price, shortage of materials and power, acute competition etc. It is hardly of any use as a
mechanism of budgetary control because it does not make any distinction between fixed,
variable and semi-variable costs and provides for no adjustment in the budget fixed as
result of change in cost due to change in level of activity. It is also not helpful at all in the
fixation of price and submission of tenders.
Flexible Budget:
The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, defines a flexible budget also
called sliding scale budget as a budget which, by recognizing the difference in behavior
between field an d variable costs in relation to fluctuations in output, turnover, or other
variable factors such a number of employees, is designed to change appropriately with such
fluctuations. This, a flexible budget gives different budgeted costs for different levels of
41
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
42/84
activity. A flexible budget making an intelligent classification of all expenses between
fixed, semi-variable and variable because the usefulness of such a budget depend upon the
accuracy with which the expenses can be classified. Such a budget is prescribed in the
following cases.
Where the level of activity during the year varies from period, either due
to the seasonal nature of the industry or to variation in demand.
Where the business is a new one and it is difficult to foresee the demand.
Where the undertaking is suffering from shortage of a factor of
production such as materials, labour, plant, capacity etc. The level of
activity depends upon the availability of such a factor of production.
Where an industry is influenced by changes in fashion.
Where there are general changes in sales.
Where the business units keep on introducing new products or make
changes in the design of its products frequently.
Where the industries are engaged in make to order business like
shipbuilding.
Basic Budget:
A Basic budget has been defined as a budget which is prepared for use unaltered
over a long period of time. This does not take into consideration current conditions andcan be attainable under standard conditions.
42
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
43/84
Current Budget:
A Current budget can be defined a budget which is related to the current conditionsand is prepared for use over a short period of time. This budget is more useful than a basic
budget, as a target of lays down will be corrected to current conditions.
Long-Term Budget:
A Long-term budget can be defined as a budget which is prepared for periods
longer than a year. These budgets help in business forecasting and forward planning.
Capital Expenditure Budget and Research and Development Budget are examples of long-
term budgets.
Short- Term Budget:
This budget is defined as a budget which is prepared for period less than year and is
very useful to lower levels of management for control purposes. Such budgets are prepared
for those activities the trend in which is difficult to foresee over longer periods. Cash
budget and material budget are examples of short term budget.
Performance Budget:
Performance Budgeting has its origin in U.S.A. After Second World War it tries to
rectify some of the shortcoming in the traditional budget. In the traditional budget amount
are earmarked for the objects of expenditures such as salaries, travel, office expenses, grant
in aid etc. In such system of budgeting the money concept was given more prominence i.e.
estimating or projecting rupee value for the various accounting heads or classification of
revenue and cost. Such system of budgeting was more popularly used in government
department and many business enterprises. But is such system of budgeting control of
performance in terms of physical units or the related costs cannot be achieved.
43
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
44/84
Performance oriented budgets are established in such a manner that each item of
expenditure related to a specific responsibility centre is closely linked with the performance
of that centre. The basic issue involved in the fixation of performance budgets is that of
developing work programmers and performance expectation by assigned responsibility,
necessary for the attainment of goals and objectives of the enterprise, it involves
establishment of well defined centers of responsibilities, establishment for each
responsibility centre-a programmed of target performance e in physical units, forecasting
the amount of expenditure required to meet the physic al plan laid down and evaluation of
performance.
Zero Based Budgets:
This budge is the preparation of budget starting from Zero or from a clean state. As
a new technique it was proposed by Patter Peal of Texas Instruments Inc., U.S.A. This
technique was introduced in the budgeting in the state of Georgia by Mr. Jimmy Carter
who was then the Government of that state. ZBB was tried in federal budgeting as a means
of controlling state expenditures.
The use of zero-based budgeting as a managerial tool has become increasingly
popular since the early 1970s It is steadily gaining acceptance e in the business world
because it is providing it utility as a tool integrating the managerial function of planning
and control. ZBB is not based on the incremental approach and previous years figures are
not adopted as a base. Rather, zero is taken as a base aw the name goes. Taking zero as a
base, a budget is developed on the basis of likely activities for the future period. In ZBB,
by declining the budget from the past, the past mistakes are not repeated. Funds required
for any for the next budget period should be obtained by presenting a convincing case.
Funds will not be available as a matter of course.

ADVANTAGES OF BUDGETARY CONTROL:
The most important advantage of a budgetary control is to enable management to
conduct business in the most efficient manner because budgets are prepared to get the
effective utilization of resources and the realization of objectives as efficiently.
It lies down as objective for the business as a whole. Even though a monetary
reward is not offered the budget becomes a game a goal to achieve or a target to shoot at
and hence it is more likely to be achieved or hit that if there was no predetermined goal or
target. The budget is an impersonal policeman that maintains ordered effort and brings
about efficiency in result. It ensures effective utilization of men, materials, machines and
money because production is planned according to the availability of these items.
Everyone working in the concern knows what exactly to do because budgetary
control laid emphasis on the staff organization. It ensures that individual responsibilities
are clearly defined and that the required authority commensurate with the responsibility is
delegated so that buck passing ay is prevented when the budgeted results are not achieved.
Budgetary control takes the help of different levels of management in the preparations of
the budget. Budget finally approved represents the judgment of the entire organization and
not merely that of an individual or a group of individuals. Thus, it ensures team work.
45
-
7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
46/84
Management by exception is possible because the comparison of actual and budgeted
results points out weak spots so that remedial action is taken against weak spots which are
not in conformity with the budgeted performance.
Budgetary control creates conditions for setting up a system of standard costing.
It is helpful in reviewing current trends in the business and in determining further
policy of the business because current and future trends are studied in the preparation of the
budget.
DISADVANTAGES OF A BUDGET:
While budgets may be essential part of activity they do have number of disadvantages,
particularly in perception terms.
Budgets can be seen pressure devices imposed by management, thus resulting in:
a) bad labor relations
b) Inaccurate record-keeping.
Departmental conflict arises due to:
a) dispute over resources allocation
b) Departmental blaming each other if targets are not attained. It is difficult to reconcile
personal\individual and corporate goals. Waste may arise as managers adopt the view, we
had better sped it or we will lose it. This is often coupled with empire building in order
to enhance the prestige of department. Responsibility versus controlling, i.e. some costs
are under the influence of more than one person, eg. Power costs.

REASONS FOR VARIANCES FOR THE YEAR 2007-2008
The performance in respect of both Vop and sales was lower than the targets and is mainly
because of the receipts of most orders at the fag end of the financial year and delays in
import of critical raw materials from Russia.
A. Raw materials: Due to continued efforts by the organization to overcome the
problems arises due to imposition of restrictions on supply of materials and as a
result procurement of this material at higher prices and increased utilization of
internally generated scrap has resulted cost of Raw material consumption.
B. Repairs and Maintenance: Because of the aging of the machinery and equipment,
repairs and maintenance jobs are increasing.
C. Consumables: By improving the life of the furnace lining and recondition of used
cast iron moulds the cost of consumables has come down over the revised
estimates.
D. Salaries and Wages: The expenditure on incentives bonus, VRS, PF has increased
in spite of these; there was nominal variance between actuals and RE due to
controls exercised on other expenses like LTC, Comp off etc from time to time.

7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
53/84
E. Administrative and Selling expenses: Even though security expenses were
increased after September 11th attacks, the reduction in administration expenses was
mainly due to less expenditure incurred on rent services hares, printing and
stationary, travel expenses, etc. There is a nominal increase in selling expenses as
compared to estimates due to increased publicity expenses.
F. Inventory: As most of the orders were received at the end of the financial year, the
organization was not able to execute the orders in time and WIP has increased over
estimates. The increase in finished goods inventory indicates that there is a delivery
of goods to the customers.
Even though the sales turnover was less than the estimate, the organization
exercised control over expense and consequently the cost of production was less
than the estimates and as a result the operating loss was less than the estimated.
G. G.R&D: The expenditure on R&D was less than the estimated expenditure
indicating that the organization has deferred has the activities to the required level.

REASONS FOR VARIANCES THE YEAR 2008-2009
Value of production decreased in 2008-2009 by Rs. 22.04 crores as against Re 2007-2008
due to reduced sales realization of various products. The reasons for lesser sales is due to
lack of orders what ever executed also are of low value in nature of all the production
facilities.
Cost of Production Budget:
a) Raw material: As the VOP decreased raw material consumption also got
reduced. Raw materials on account for about 36.66% of VOP and efforts are
on to increase the scrap utilization to reduce the ratio of raw materials to
VOP.
b) Consumables: Consumption of consumables also reduced due to the
reduction in value of production that is reduction in production activities.
There is a slight increase in consumption of judicious usage of high value
consumables. However efforts are on to contain the consumption.
c) Power & Fuel: Power and fuel requirements are usually determined on the
basis of the level of operations in various shops on the various product mi.

7/29/2019 Budget and Budgetary Conrol
59/84
There is an increase in power cost due to upward revision of power charges
by APSEB. The increase in Fuel cost is mainly due to increase price of fuel in
International markets.
d) Repairs & Maintenance: However, there is no increase in this expenditure
because of the aging of the machinery and equipment, repairs and
maintenance jobs are increasing. The major portion of this expenditure
comprise of spares.
e) Off loading expenses: Usually off loading of work in resorted to reduce the
cost of production by getting the small works done outside at a cheaper rate
instead of doing internally. During the year the expenses were higher because
of drastic reduction in volume of off loading quantity.
f) Salaries and Wages: Reduction in factory expenses were increased by Rs.4
lakhs compared to Re 2008-2009 due to increase in consultancy, printing&
stationery expenses due to selling agency commission. .
g) Inventory: Increase in inventory by Rs.8.08 crores. As against RE 2008-2009
due to low value of production resulting in to lack of bulk orders.
