This book was released on 2003-03-13 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2002 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 64% (England = B+), University of the West of England, Bristol (Bristol Business School - Bachelors Degree Business Administration), language: English, abstract: Accounting is an important aspect of management control. Budgets are unarguably the most obvious form of utilising accounting data to monitor and punish or reward strategic business units and consequently employees, regardless of whether they are managers or workers on the shop floor, according to their performance in relation to budgeted targets. “The budget is a financial plan for implementing the various decisions that management has made” (Drury 1997, p. 8). Participation in the formation process of budgets by those ultimately affected is practised in companies with the aim to generate a better-performing workforce. Empirical evidence on the effects of participative budgeting is ambiguous and the literature is fragmented. In this paper, I shall mainly review research on participative budgeting as well as other issues in budgeting and some critical perspectives on budgeting as a means of management control.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alteration of the business environment has heightened the role of management accounting and control systems (MACS). Not only the design of MACS has gained increased relevance but also the ways in which MACS are used. Based upon empirical data from 69 German manufacturing companies of different industries testing the developed research model, the evidence reinforces the knowledge concerning budgets and their use and essentially bridges the gap in understanding the relationship between budgeting and strategy by revealing the positive effects formal MACS perform. This book is important reading for graduate students of business administration and executives with focus on budgeting management accounting and strategic management.
Download or read book Organizational Determinants of Budgetary Influence and Involvement written by Noah P. Barsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on network theory from the organizational sociology literature, this book examines issues related to which organizational factors determine how employees influence the budgeting process. Data were collected from managers who participate in the budgeting process at a major apparel manufacturer. Social network analysis was employed to measure how the structure of the network of managers affects the budgeting process. The results show that budgetary influence is structurally determined and resides with managers holding central positions in the organizational network. Thus, while formal procedures determine which employees are involved in budgeting activities, only centrally positioned managers actually influence budgetary outcomes. The findings indicate that influence, not involvement, is the key to empowerment in the budgeting process. This research suggests that researchers and practitioners should be aware of an organization's social structure when examining a participative budgeting process. The difference between formal designs and actual influence is indicative of a "rhetoric-reality gap" which can impair the effectiveness of management control systems.

This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Field Study Examination of Budgetary Participation and Locus of Control: October 1982 The question of the conditions under which budgetary participation will lead to desirable organizational outcomes is a matter of concern to researchers in managerial accounting for two reasons: (1) participation is widely believed to provide a managerial approach to improving performance of organizational personnel and (2) the evidence which exists in the literature is in considerable conflict. This question provided the motivation for a laboratory study reported elsewhere [brownell, 1981] of the role of internal-external locus of control, a personality variable, as a moderator of the relationship between budgetary participation and performance. The purpose of the present study is to validate the results of the laboratory experiment using a field - study approach. The results of the previous study will also be extended by considering the effects of participation and locus of control on job satisfaction, as well as on performance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Participation in Budgeting, Locus of Control and Organizational Effectiveness At the individual level, the rwflfie of reward structure as a conditioning variable was studied by Cherrington and Cherrington In an experimental setting, they found that where participation in budgeting was low, rewards administered on the basis of aggregate output rather than budget-related output, led to higher performance. Conversely, under conditions of high participation, performance was clearly superior when rewards were linked to twfiget achievement. The findings support the intuitively appealing notion that 'budgets, if provided salience through a process of high participation, should logically provide a primary basis for performance evaluation of the members of an organization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the participatory budgeting practice as it has evolved in evaluated countries, focusing on what is substantially at stake concerning the budget and issues involved, the actual participation, the way such processes are organised and administered, and the outcomes of such processes. It concludes that participatory budgeting in selected European countries is far away from the level of ‘best practice’, but that all experiences are not just trivial pursuits. The information collected serves to check, to what extent participatory budgeting as practiced in the countries involved presents a real attempt to change municipal budgets towards addressing the needs of marginalized groups and to improve decision-making based on local democracy and participation, or whether these processes as such are to be judged to be more important than any output and outcomes. The practices can neither be seen as a process of policy diffusion nor as a process of policy mimesis. The terminology of participatory budgeting remains, but the tools to achieve the goals resulted only in marginal changes in the status quo in municipalities in European countries practicing participatory budgeting, instead of resulting in radical changes to increase spending in favor of marginalized groups.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Participation in Budgeting, Locus of Control and Organizational Effectiveness: A Field Extension While the results of this study were encouraging, the limitations of the research method must be kept in mind. For reasons of subject (at least in the case of the students), task, reward and situational surrogation, an experimental approach suffers from potentially impaired generalizability to the real-world setting of interest.
