| Summary: | The Malaysian economy expanded by 5.2% in 2003 and economic
growth was broad based and balanced across all sectors, driven
by strong domestic demand and augmented by a stronger export
performance. The manufacturing sector grew at a rapid pace following
the broad based recovery in the global economy and strengthening
domestic demand (bank Negara Malaysia, 2004).
Profit planning is essential in any organization and
manufacturing establishments are of no exception. This can be
accomplished through the preparation of a number of budgets, which
focus heavily on future rather than on the past (Garrison and Noreen,
1997).
in relation to the above this study attempts to determine and
find out the specific purposes of budgets, the implementation of budget
in companies, the extent of managers’ participation in setting budget
targets and the extent to which budget variance reports are used to
measure performance and also other related issues. |
