289 Pages

The  course  is  intended  for  business  professionals  engaged  in  budgeting,  financial  planning,  forecasting,  profit  planning,  and  control.  A  budget  is  the  formal  expression  of  plans,  goals,  and  objectives  of  management  that covers  all  aspects  of  operations  for  a  designated  time  period.  The  budget  is  a  tool  providing  targets  and  direction. Budgets provide control over the immediate environment, help to master the financial aspects of the job  and  department,  and  solve  problems  before  they  occur.  Budgets  focus  on  the  importance  of  evaluating  alternative actions before decisions are actually implemented. This course explains what budgets are, how they work, how to prepare and present them, and how to analyze budget figures and results. The new development and use of budgets such as rolling budgets at various managerial levels within a business are illustrated, along with active financial planning software and e‐budgeting  that combine budgeting, forecasting analytics, business intelligence, and collaboration.
