Budget Preparation

The manufacturer has to forecast with the reasonable amount of accuracy in a given period of time in the future. Management will estimate the probable sale in a given period of time. Required rate of production is always decided by the management in order to meet the estimated sales. The management will prepare the purchasing budget by estimating the demand, sales and the probable production. So you can get a very clear idea about the quantity of goods required from the purchasing budget. All these budgets are prepared for one year and one can say that the sales budget and the purchase budget go hand in hand. So a company has to plan the budget very carefully to meet the demands of the people and also to gain profit.
