CHAPTER 22
BUSINESS PLANNING
I.

Questions
1. Strategy, plans, and budgets are interrelated and affect one another.
Strategy describes how an organization matches its own capabilities
with the opportunities in the marketplace to accomplish its overall
objectives. Strategy analysis underlies both long-run and short-run
planning. In turn, these plans lead to the formulation of budgets.
Budgets provide feedback to managers about the likely effects of their
strategic plans. Managers use this feedback to revise their strategic
plans.
2. Budgeted performance is better than past performance for judging
managers. Why? Mainly because the inefficiencies included in past
results can be detected and eliminated in budgeting. Also, new
opportunities in the future, which did not exist in the past, may be
ignored if past performance is used.
3. A company that shares its own internal budget information with other
companies can gain multiple benefits.
One benefit is better
coordination with suppliers, which can reduce the likelihood of supply
shortages. Better coordination with customers can result in increased
sales as demand by customers is less likely to exceed supply. Better
coordination across the whole supply chain can also help a company
reduce inventories and thus reduce the costs of holding inventories.
4. The sales forecast is typically the cornerstone for budgeting, because
production (and, hence, costs) and inventory levels generally depend
on the forecasted level of sales.

5. Sensitivity analysis adds an extra dimension to budgeting. It enables
managers to examine how budgeted amounts change with changes in
the underlying assumptions. This assists managers to monitor those
assumptions that are most critical to a company attaining its budget or
make timely adjustments to plans when appropriate.
6. Factors reducing the effectiveness of budgeting of companies include:
1. Lack of a well-defined strategy,

2. Lack of a clear linkage of strategy to operational plans,
3. Lack of individual accountability for results, and
4. Lack of meaningful performance measures.
