The budgeting process provides a means to coordinate activities among units of the organization, to communicate the organization’s goals to individual units, and to ensure adequate resources are available to carry out planned activities. While this planning aspect of the budget is important, it is not the only role budgets can play. In the control and evaluation activity, the performance of units and managers is evaluated and actions are taken in an attempt to improve performance. As we discussed in Chapter 14, evaluation requires a benchmark against which to measure performance. One benchmark for measuring performance is the budget. In this chapter, and in Chapter 17, we use the budgets to evaluate performance. Using Budgets for Performance Evaluation . 1 Use budgets for performance evaluation.
