Product Description

For a number of years, corporate accountants have been questioning the validity of spending months on an annual budgeting process which is out of date before the ink has dried. An annual budgeting process is not worth more than two weeks of effort, so why are we spending months on it? Companies in Asia, Europe, the US, Australia and New Zealand are recognising that the existing annual budgeting process cannot continue. It has been with us since the Roman calendar was adopted by the West and is now seen by many as a hindrance to management rather than a help. An international survey found that nearly 90% of CFOs were dissatisfied with their annual budgeting process. What CFOs and management accountants need to know is how to cut the time out of the existing annual budgeting process and at the same time prepare the way to managing the business in a more appropriate way – through quarterly rolling forecasting and planning.

Existing annual budgeting processes; encourage budget holders to be dysfunctional; undermines the reporting regime as the monthly budgets have no relevance, and involves management in a three month period where management are taken away from making money.
