Master Budgeting

Solutions to Questions

8-1 A budget is a detailed quantitative plan for the acquisition and use of financial and other

master budget usually also contains a budgeted income statement, budgeted balance sheet, and

resources over a given time period. Budgetary control involves using budgets to increase the likelihood that all parts of an organization are working together to achieve the goals set down in the planning stage.
8-2 1. Budgets encourage managers to think
about and plan for the future. 2. Budgets communicate financial goals
throughout the organization. 3. Budgets allocate resources within the
organization where they can be used most effectively.
4. Budgets coordinate the plans and activities of departmental managers.
5. Budgets uncover potential bottlenecks before they occur.
6. Budgets can be compared to actual results to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of operations and to evaluate and

cash budget.
8-5 The level of sales impacts virtually every other aspect of the firm's activities. It determines the production budget, cash collections, cash disbursements, and selling and administrative budget that in turn determine the cash budget and budgeted income statement and balance sheet.
8-6 No. Planning and control are different, although related, concepts. Planning involves developing goals and developing budgets to achieve those goals. Control, by contrast, involves the means by which management attempts to ensure that the goals set down at the planning stage are attained.
8-7 Creating a "budgeting assumptions" tab simplifies the process of determining how changes to a master budget's underlying

reward employees.
8-3 A perpetual budget is a 12-month budget that continuously rolls forward one month (or quarter) at a time as the current month (or quarter) is completed. This approach keeps managers continually focused one year ahead.
8-4 A master budget represents a summary of all of management's plans and goals for the future, and outlines the way in which these plans are to be accomplished. The master budget is composed of a number of smaller, specific budgets encompassing sales, production, raw materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead, selling and administrative expenses, and inventories. The

assumptions impact all supporting schedules and the projected financial statements.
8-8 A self-imposed budget is one in which persons with responsibility over cost control prepare their own budgets. This is in contrast to a budget that is imposed from above. The major advantages of a self-imposed budget are: (1) It shows respect for the opinions of lower-level managers. (2) It leverages the knowledge of lower-level managers to provide more accurate estimates than those imposed by top managers who have less intimate knowledge of day-to-day operations. (3) It increases the lower-level managers' motivation to achieve their own selfimposed goals. (4) It empowers lower-level managers to take ownership of the budget and to be accountable for deviations from it.

Self-imposed budgets do carry with them the risk of budgetary slack. The budgets prepared by lower-level managers should be carefully reviewed to prevent too much slack.
8-9 The direct labor budget and other budgets can be used to forecast workforce staffing needs. Careful planning can help a company avoid erratic hiring and laying off of employees.

8-10 The principal purpose of the cash budget is NOT to see how much cash the company will have in the bank at the end of the year. Although this is one of the purposes of the cash budget, the principal purpose is to provide information on probable cash needs during the budget period, so that bank loans and other sources of financing can be anticipated and arranged well in advance.

c. The total cost of raw materials to be purchased for the year under this revised budget is $1,358,800.
d. The total expected cash disbursements for raw materials for the year under this revised budget are $1,305,900.
e. The production constraint of 90,000 units per quarter is a problem in the third quarter of Year 2 and may be a problem later in Year 3. This problem can be approached in a variety of ways. First, the excess capacity in the first and second quarters could be used to build up finished goods inventories beyond the usual levels. Second, management could investigate acquiring another of the milling machines. Third, improvement efforts can be focused on the milling machine; if these efforts are successful, the capacity of the milling machine can be increased and consequently the capacity of the entire plant can be increased. Fourth, management could investigate hiring another company with such a milling machine to do some of the work.

Notice that even though sales peak in May, cash collections peak in June. This occurs because the bulk of the company's customers pay in the month following sale. The lag in collections that this creates is even more pronounced in some companies. Indeed, it is not unusual for a company to have the least cash available in the months when sales are greatest.

2. During July and August, the company is building inventories in anticipation of peak sales in September. Therefore, production exceeds sales during these months. In September and October, inventories are being reduced in anticipation of a forthcoming decrease in sales. Therefore, production is less than sales during these months.

As shown in part (1), production is greatest in September; however, as shown in the raw material purchases budget, purchases of materials are greatest a month earlier--in August. The reason for the large purchases of materials in August is that the materials must be on hand to support the heavy production scheduled for September.

3. Students may be inclined to conclude that the financial projections in requirement 2 indicate a decline in performance for two reasons. First, the net operating income in the two scenarios is the same. Second, the total assets dropped by $7,065.
This interpretation overlooks the importance of cash flows and working capital management. For professors wishing to explore this discussion further, we recommend computing and comparing the operating cycle (as discussed in the chapter titled Financial Statement Analysis) for requirements 1 and 2.
The accounts receivable turnover in requirement 1 is 1.70 ($156,000 ÷ $91,800). The average collection period is 17.65 days (30 days ÷ 1.70). The inventory turnover is 3.27 ($108,000 ÷ $33,075). The average sale period is 9.17 days (30 ÷ 3.27). The operating cycle is 26.82 days (17.65 days + 9.17 days).
The accounts receivable turnover in requirement 2 is 1.86 ($156,000 ÷ $84,000). The average collection period is 16.13 days (30 days ÷ 1.86). The inventory turnover is 4.95 ($108,000 ÷ $21,825). The average sale period is 6.06 days (30 ÷ 4.95). The operating cycle is 22.19 days (16.13 days + 6.06 days).
The operating cycle drops by 4.63 days in requirement 2.

Problem 8-22 (30 minutes)
1. The budget at Springfield is an imposed "top-down" budget that fails to consider both the need for realistic data and the human interaction essential to an effective budgeting/control process. The President has not given any basis for his goals, so one cannot know whether they are realistic for the company. True participation of company employees in preparation of the budget is minimal and limited to mechanical gathering and manipulation of data. This suggests there will be little enthusiasm for implementing the budget.
The sales by product line should be based on an accurate sales forecast of the potential market. Therefore, the sales by product line should have been developed first to derive the sales target rather than the reverse.
The initial meeting between the Vice President of Finance, Executive Vice President, Marketing Manager, and Production Manager should have been held earlier. This meeting was held too late in the budget process.
2. Springfield should consider adopting a "bottom-up" budget process. This means that the people responsible for performance under the budget would participate in the decisions by which the budget is established. In addition, this approach requires initial and continuing involvement of sales, financial, and production personnel to define sales and profit goals that are realistic within the constraints under which the company operates. Although time consuming, the approach should produce a more acceptable, honest, and workable goal-control mechanism.
The sales forecast should be developed considering internal salesforecasts as well as external factors. Costs within departments should be divided into fixed and variable, controllable and noncontrollable, discretionary and nondiscretionary. Flexible budgeting techniques could then allow departments to identify costs that can be modified in the planning process.

Managerial Accounting, 17th Edition

Problem 8-22 (continued)
3. The functional areas should not necessarily be expected to cut costs when sales volume falls below budget. The time frame of the budget (one year) is short enough so that many costs are relatively fixed. For costs that are fixed, there is little hope for a reduction as a consequence of short-run changes in volume. However, the functional areas should be expected to cut costs should sales volume fall below target when:
a. control is exercised over the costs within their function.
b. budgeted costs were more than adequate for the originally targeted sales, i.e., slack was present.
c. budgeted costs vary to some extent with changes in sales.
d. there are discretionary costs that can be delayed or omitted with no serious effect on the department.

Problem 8-26 (45 minutes)
1. a. The reasons that Marge Atkins and Pete Granger use budgetary slack include the following:
· These employees are hedging against the unexpected (reducing uncertainty/risk).
· The use of budgetary slack allows employees to exceed expectations and/or show consistent performance. This is particularly important when performance is evaluated on the basis of actual results versus budget.
· Employees are able to blend personal and organizational goals through the use of budgetary slack as good performance generally leads to higher salaries, promotions, and bonuses.
b. The use of budgetary slack can adversely affect Atkins and Granger by:
· limiting the usefulness of the budget to motivate their employees to top performance.
· affecting their ability to identify trouble spots and take appropriate corrective action.
· reducing their credibility in the eyes of management.
Also, the use of budgetary slack may affect management decisionmaking as the budgets will show lower contribution margins (lower sales, higher expenses). Decisions regarding the profitability of product lines, staffing levels, incentives, etc., could have an adverse effect on Atkins' and Granger's departments.

Case 8-32 (45 minutes)
1. The budgetary control system has several important shortcomings that reduce its effectiveness and may cause it to interfere with good performance. Some of the shortcomings are explained below.
a. Lack of Coordinated Goals. Emory had been led to believe highquality output is the goal; it now appears low cost is the goal. Employees do not know what the goals are and thus cannot make decisions that further the goals.
b. Influence of Uncontrollable Factors. Actual performance relative to budget is greatly influenced by uncontrollable factors (i.e., rush orders, lack of prompt maintenance). Thus, the variance reports serve little purpose for performance evaluation or for locating controllable factors to improve performance. As a result, the system does not encourage coordination among departments.
c. The Short-Run Perspectives. Monthly evaluations and budget tightening on a monthly basis results in a very short-run perspective. This results in inappropriate decisions (i.e., inspect forklift trucks rather than repair inoperative equipment, fail to report supplies usage).
d. System Does Not Motivate. The budgetary system appears to focus on performance evaluation even though most of the essential factors for that purpose are missing. The focus on evaluation and the weaknesses take away an important benefit of the budgetary system--employee motivation.

2. The improvements in the budgetary control system should correct the deficiencies described above. The system should:
a. more clearly define the company's objectives.
b. develop an accounting reporting system that better matches controllable factors with supervisor responsibility and authority.
c. establish budgets for appropriate time periods that do not change monthly simply as a result of a change in the prior month's performance.
The entire company from top management down should be educated in sound budgetary procedures.
