MASTER BUDGET RELATIONSHIPS:
ADVANTAGES OF BUDGETING:
1) Budgets can be used by the top management to communicate its plans and goals
throughout the organization.

B. TYPES OF BUDGETS AND OTHER BUDGETING CONCEPTS
TYPES OF BUDGETS:
1) Flexible budgeting
A series of budgets prepared for many levels of activity. It makes possible the adjustment
of the budget to the actual level of activity before comparing the budget figures with the
actual results.
5) Participative budgeting
Participative budgeting is a budgeting process in which the people who are in the lower levels
of management are involved in the budget preparation process. Unlike the imposed
budgeting process, participative budgeting shares the responsibility with lower-level
managers to give them a sense of ownership in the business.
Ø the activities are identified, a cost pool is established for each activity is established
for each activity, a cost driver is identified for each pool, and the budgeted cost for
each pool is determined by multiplying the budgeted demand for the activity by the
estimate cost per unit of such activity.
8) Kaizen budgeting
Kaizen is a Japanese term that means continuous improvement. Thus, Kaizen budgeting
assumes the continuous improvement of products and processes; the effects of improvement
and the costs of their implementation are estimated.
Ø Kaizen budgeting is based not on the existing system but on changes that are to be
made.
9) Governmental budgeting
In a private-sector budget, a governmental budget is not only a financial plan and a basis
for performance evaluation but also an and a form of control having the force of law.
Page | 3
Definition of terms:
1) Budget committee- composed of key management persons who are responsible for overall
policy matters relating to the budget program and for coordinating the preparation of the
budget itself.
2) Responsibility center- part or sub-unit of a company for which a manager has authority and
responsibility. The company’s detailed organizational chart is a logical source for the
determining responsibility centers. The most common responsibility center can control any
cost; the responsibility center is referred to as a cost center. If a manager can control both
cost and revenues, the responsibility center is known as a profit center. If a manager has
authority and responsibility for cost, revenues and investment, the responsibility center is
referred to as an investment center.
3) Master budget- a summary of company plans that sets specific target for sales, production,
distribution, and financing activities. It composed of, budgeted income statement, a budgeted
balance sheet, and budgeted statement of cash flows. In short, this budget represents a
comprehensive expression of management plans for future and how these plans are to be
accomplished. This budget can also be divided into operating and financial budget.
4) Operating budget- the detailed projection of all estimated income and expenses based on
forecasted sale revenue during a given period (usually one year). It generally consists of
several sub-budgets, he most important one being the sales budget, which is prepared first.
This budget is needed to make the budgeted income statement.
5) Financial budget- includes the budgeted balance sheet, which shows the effects of planned
operations and capital investment on assets, liabilities, and equities. It also includes a cash
budget, which forecasts the flow of cash and other funds in the business.

TOPIC 2: OPERATING BUDGET
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
NOTES:
A. SALES BUDGET
Sales budget- a detailed schedule showing the expected sales for coming period; these sales
are typically expressed in both pesos and units.
Sales indicate meeting customers’ wants, needs, desire, etc. it is the motive of business
organization and the start of business planning. Mathematically, sales are affected by the unit
sales price and quantity sold. The unit sales price is affected by:
• Cost, • Competition,
• product substitute, • market trends,
• government regulations, • demand and supply behavior, and
• estimated profit among other
things
.
The number of units sold is affected by the unit sales price. Other factors influencing sales
forecast include the:
• past sales volume
• general economic and industry condition
• relationship of sales to economic indicators (such as GDP, GNP, personal income,
employment, price and industrial production)
• relative product profitability
• market research studies
• advertising and other promotion
• quality of sales force
• seasonal variation
• production capacity and
• long run sale trends for various productions.
In forecasting sales, factors that have strong correlation with sales patterns are identified and
used.
Basically, there are six ways of making estimates for the sales budget (sales forecast)
1) Sales trends analysis – under this method, the product life cycle is used in making the
forecast. The growth commences at the introduction of the product and accelerates during
its middle year and then plateaus (reaches maximum) then it declines. It is essential that
the company what part of the lifecycle is the product.
2) Sales force composite method. Under this method, each sales man estimates the sales in
his particular territory. Historical sales may be used by each sales man as basis for
estimating the probable sales for the next period.
Page | 7
3) Executive opinion method. Under this method, the views of a number of top executive are
called to arrive at a sales estimate.
4) Industry trend analysis method. Under this method, the relationship between expected
industry sales and the company sales in terms of market share is determined. The growth
statistics of the entire industry is assist and a forecast is made. The firms’ growth pattern
is also determined and compared with that of the industries’ to come up with the trend.
When the trend is determined, a percentage of the expected total market for the budget
period is estimated. This percentage is then multiplied to estimate of the total industry
sales and the result is considered the sales forecast of the company.
5) Correlation analysis method. In this more scientific means of forecasting sales by using
regression analysis. In this statistics, we were taught that linear regression equations are
used to determine or predict the movement or existence of a dependent variable
depending on the movement or existence of an independent variable. The variables are
placed in the equation and thus, predict what sales would be. The regression equation is
used to determine the cost and effect relationship between sales and the factors affecting
it. (mathematical method)
6) Multiple approach method. This method uses a combination of the various methods
discussed.
B. PRODUCTION BUDGET
Production budget- the production budget is prepared after the sales budget. The production
budget lists the number of units that must be produced during each budget period to meet
sales needs and to provide for the desired ending inventory. The production budget is actually
an estimate of production for that budget period. It is very first drawn up in amounts of each
product and when the leftover budgets have been ready and cost of production calculated,
next the quantities of manufacturing cost are translated into cash terms, what in impact
becomes a production cost budget. The production budget is actually the initial step in
budgeting production operations. Additionally, to production budget, you can find three other
budgets associated with manufacturing activities of an organization. These are labor budget,
raw materials budget and production overhead budget.
1. Sales budget. When sales is the principal budget factor, the production budget will be based
on the volume of sales forecast by the sales budget.
2. Inventory policy. The management decision regarding quantities needed is stock at all
times to meet customer requirements is an important factor.
3. Production capacity. The production capacity of every department needs to be worked out
and budget figures must be within these limits.
4. Management policy. Production policy from the management plays a significant role in
budgeting production. For instance, management might decide to purchase a particular
component part through outside instead of manufacturing it. This can influence production
Raw materials budget- the raw materials budget is based on the budgeted production. Multiply
the budgeted production by the standard materials per unit of finished goods to get the
budgeted direct materials to be used. The raw materials purchases are based on the beginning
Page | 8
and ending raw materials inventory.
Direct materials budget or raw materials budgeting details the raw material that must be
purchased to fulfill the production requirement and to provide for adequate inventories. This
budget exhibits the estimated quantities of most the raw materials and components required
for production demanded through the production budget. Raw material budget serves the
following purposes:
1. It assists the purchasing department in planning the purchases.
2. It helps in the preparation of purchase budget.
3. It provides data for raw material control.
It should be noted that raw material budget generally deals with only the direct materials
whereas indirect materials and supplies are included in the overhead cost budget.
C. PURHASES BUDGET
Purchases budget - Careful planning of purchases offers one of the most significant areas of
cost saving in many concerns. The purchase manager should be assigned the direct
responsibility for preparing a detailed of purchases for the budget period and for submitting
the plan in the form of a purchase budget. The purchases budget provides details of the
purchases which are planned to be made during the period to meet the needs of the business.
It indicates:
1. The quantities of each type of raw material and other items to be purchased;
2. The timing of purchases and
3. The estimated cost of material purchases.
Direct labor budget – assuming a labor- intensive operation where workers are paid by hour,
the budgeted direct labor hours is budgeted production times the standard of direct labor hour
per unit produced. The standard direct labor rate per hour is to be supplied by the human
resources department (HRD). Direct labor requirements must be computed so that the
company will know whether sufficient labor time is available to meet the budgeted production
needs. By knowing in advance how much labor will be needed throughout the budget year, the
company can develop plans to adjust the labor force as situation requires.
Factory overhead budget – it is consist of fixed and variable. Fixed overhead is constant in
total and fixed overhead rate is computed based on the normal capacity. Total variable costs
change while unit variable cost is constant. The production overhead budget involves the
preparation of overheads budgets for each department of the factory as it is desirable to have
estimates of manufacturing overheads prepared by those individuals who have the
responsibility for incurring them. The budget expenses for each sub-period. During the budget
period should be indicated and the classification of expenses should be the same as used by
Page | 9
the accounting department. The
budgeted overhead costs of service departments are totaled and apportioned to production
departments according to the services received by each such production department. The
budgeted overhead costs of service departments are totaled and apportioned to production
departments according to the services received by each such production department.
Research and development – companies which play leading roles in their industries and line of
business, or companies that operate in a technology-based business environment, need to
allocate resources for research and development to stay competitive and relevant in their
services to customers. Detailed research and development budget would provide important
information to managers in their strategic and tactical decisions.
Selling and administrative expense budget- this budget lists the budgeted expenses for areas
other than manufacturing. In large organizations this budget would be a compilation of many
smaller, individual budgets submitted by department heads and other persons responsible for
selling and administrative expenses. For example, the marketing manager in a large
organization would submit a budget detailing the advertising expenses for each budget period.
Budgeted income statement contains all of the line items found in a normal income statement,
except that it is a projection of what the income statement will look like during future budget
periods. This is compiled from other budgets such as the sales budget, production budget, and
selling and administrative budget.

A. CASH BUDGET
Cash budget – is a detailed plan showing how cash resources will be acquired and used over
some specific time period.
Schedule of accounts receivable collections – credit sales are collected over a period of time.
Collection patterns are to be established to more accurately estimate the inflows of cash from
operations. A schedule of accounts receivable collections from credit sales is to be done. Total
collections from receivables include those from credit customers and cash sales.
Schedule of accounts payable payments- credit purchases are not usually paid in the month of
purchase. Normally, payments are paid spread over a number of months. A schedule of
accounts payable is to be made to more accurately determine timing of cash outflows to
suppliers.
Budgeted statement cash flows – managers are also interested in the daily and regular cash
position of the business to effectively monitor operating activities. An analysis of cash inflows
and outflows would provide management vital information on the liquidity needs of the
business.
Capital expenditures budget – identifies the amount of cash a company will invest in projects
and long term assets.
Budgeted balance sheet – contains all of the line items found in a normal balance sheet, except
that it is a projection of what the balance sheet will look like during future budget period.
