ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
1. (a) A budget is a formal written statement of management’s plans for a specified future time period,
expressed in financial terms.
(b) A budget aids management in planning because it represents the primary method of commu-
nicating agreed-upon objectives throughout the organization. Once adopted, a budget becomes
an important basis for evaluating performance.
2. The primary benefits of budgeting are:
(1) It requires all levels of management to plan ahead and to formalize goals on a recurring basis.
(2) It provides definite objectives for evaluating performance at each level of responsibility.
(3) It creates an early warning system for potential problems, so that management can make
changes before things get out of hand.
4. (a) Disagree. Accounting information makes major contributions to the budgeting process. Accounting
provides the starting point of budgeting by providing historical data on revenues, costs, and
5. The budget period should be long enough to provide an attainable goal under normal business
conditions. The budget period should minimize the impact of seasonal and cyclical business
fluctuations, but it should not be so long that reliable estimates are impossible. The most common
budget period is one year.
6. Disagree. Long-range planning usually encompasses a period of at least five years. It involves

8. Budgetary slack is the amount by which a manager intentionally underestimates budgeted
revenues or overestimates budgeted expenses in order to make it easier to achieve budgetary
goals. Managers may have an incentive to create budgetary slack in order to increase the likelihood of
receiving a bonus, or decrease the likelihood of losing their job.
9. A master budget is a set of interrelated budgets that constitutes a plan of action for a specified
time period. The master budget is developed within the framework of a sales forecast.
15. (a) Manufacturing overhead rate based on direct labor cost is 48% [$198,000 + $162,000 =
$360,000; $360,000 ÷ (150,000 X 1/3 X $15/hr.) = 48%].
19. The three sections of a cash budget are: (1) cash receipts, (2) cash disbursements, and (3) financing.
The cash budget also shows the beginning and ending cash balances.
20. Cash collections are:
January—$600,000 X 40% = $240,000.

Re: Budgeting
I am glad Trusler Company is considering preparing a formal budget. There are
