AN EVALUATION OF THE IMPACT OF BUDGET AND BUDGETARY CONTROL IN AN ORGANIZATION

CHAPTER ONE

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Budgeting control has been widely accepted as management techniques which are aimed at controlling the operations of an enterprise towards the realization of predetermined objectives. Organizations are structured into various departments according to individual requirement with specific targets set at each unit for the attainment of corporate objectives.

Budgeting control system is premised on co-ordinating and controlling various activities within the divisional levels such that the overall corporate goal is achieved. Budgeting is of age as the world itself, as it was used to check the kings power over taxation and to control government expenditure.

Budgeting control though has received wide acceptance because of it’s crucial importance to government and organizations; it’s controversial nature can general conflicts, frustration and accurate competition from the core organizational resources (Umoren 1985:12).

Budgeting is a good setting strategy where conflicts, power differentials and uncertainty are inherent, the system influenced behaviour and action positively and negatively, unfortunately, when control breakdown rather than seeking solutions, some executives are lamed yet others indulge in disclaiming responsibilities (Oliver 1975:125).

Budgeting simply implies a political statement aimed at attaining certain economic and social welfare goal by the government or the agencies involved.

Budgeting is a series of goals. A more inclusive definition of budget has been given as a plan quantified in monetary terms to be prepared and approved prior to a defined period of time usually showing planned income to be generated and expenditure to be incurred during that period and the capital to be employed to attain a given objective.

Budgeting system encourages active concern for the future delegation of responsibilities, authority and influence in organization. There should be adequate organizational structure to form a foundation for a sound budgeting system. Management should maintain a level of authority and responsibilities, a good communication network, proper departmentalization and good relation. Management must however be contented with behaviour of customers, government agencies, trade unions, customs, economic climate and political, which are considered to be external influences.

Budgeting system could assist the management in planning, co-ordinating, inter-relation activities and performance evaluation, planning as it is widely accepted in determination of objectives or setting targets, formulation of policies, strategies and alternative priorities. It involves critical examination and analysis of source and application of funds.
