CHAPTER 22 (FIN MAN); CHAPTER 8 (MAN)
BUDGETING
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1. The three major objectives of budgeting are (1) to establish specific goals for future
operations, (2) to execute plans to achieve the goals, and (3) to periodically compare
actual results with the goals.
4. Conflicting goals can cause employees or department managers to act in their own self-
interests to the detriment of the organization’s objectives.
5. A static budget is most appropriate in situations where costs are not variable to an underlying
activity level. As a result, it is reasonable to plan spending on the basis of a fixed quantity of
resources for the year. This will occur in some administrative functions, such as human
resources, accounting, or public relations.
8. Purchases of direct materials should be closely coordinated with the production budget so
that inventory levels can be maintained within reasonable limits.
9. a. The cash budget contributes to effective cash planning. This involves advance planning
so that a cash shortage does not arise and excess cash is not permitted to remain “idle.”

b. The four-month budgets do not change with any identified activity level; thus,
they are static budgets.
c. While Craigs budget might first appear satisfactory, Craig must earn enough
cash in order to pay for the spring semester tuition. His present budget shows
that he will be $1,310 short of the tuition amount ($4,800 $3,490) by the time
he needs to pay his spring tuition. Thus, Craig will likely need to adjust the
plan before the fall term even begins. Some possibilities would be to rent a
