CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION:

A successful financial administration in government and any organization rests on two prerequisite system, namely, accounting and financial control.

These are the essence of budgeting and budgetary control.  Budding and budgetary control are designable to ensure that business organizations survive and meet the expectations of investors.  For government, they underline government ability to meet its responsibility for ensuring stable price level, high level of employment, law and order, and good balance of payments.  In order to achieve economics in the use of resources or maximize productivity, there is need to plan so as to help management in decision making.

Budget has been defined in various ways by different authors and by both private and public entities but the underlying philosophy and concept remains the same. 

Business sectors look at budget as a quantitative plan of action and policies (usually monetary) prepared and approved prior to the time which it related.

T. Lucey (1983) ‘Government sector looks at budget from legal point of view as proposed estimates by revenue and expenditure within a fiscal year.  According to Steamy (1992) government budgets usually consists of the following features:

  1. A general review of the economy in terms of its performance in the last budget year.
  2. The estimates, both revenue and expenditure, arranged under recurrent and capital groupings.
  3. The fiscal monetary and other controls to be introduced by the government.

According to Chartered Institute of Management Accountant (CIMA), budget is defined as “financial and quantitative statements prepared and approved prior to a defined period of time of the policy to be pursued during that period for the purpose of attaining a given objective.  They may involve income, expenditure and employment of capital.  Budget could be said to be a standard with which to measure the actual achievement of people, departments and firms.  On the other hand, budgeting control has been defined.

However, Chartered Institute of Management Accountant (CIMA) defined budgetary control as the establishment of budget relating the responsibilities of executives to the requirement policy, and the continuous comparison of actual with budgeted results.

Budgetary control is usually operated with a system of standard costing, because both systems are interrelated at not interdependent.  Budgetary control is thus a system of controlling costs which includes the preparation of budgets, comparing actual performance with budgeted and acting upon results to achieve maximum profit and set objectives.

1.1     PURPOSE OF THE STUDY:

The purpose of this study is to look critically into relevant areas of budget and budgetary control.  Thus, it is to find out what type of budget and budgetary control are in use in Enugu State Government, what circumstances warrant their use, investigate whether or not budgetary control as management of the resources of the state, what extent this tool is used to enable the State Government take prudent decision that will helps achieve her objectives.  The problems the State Government encounter during and after the budget process and how to curb these problems.

  1. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY:

A successful study of the subject matter of this research will be of immense advantage to Nigeria as a whole.  This is because, a full analysis of budget and budgetary control, will enable them to tackle most of their economic problems such as:

  1. The high inflation
  2. High input bills
  3. Devaluation of naira
  4. Huge overseas debts/borrowing
  5. Low survival rate of business

If all these problems were solved, there will be efficient use of our resources and this country will be worthy of emulation

  1. SCOPE AND LIMITATION OF THE STUDY:

The study is limited to the appraisal of budget and budgetary control as management tool in decision-making in government bodies only.  It aims at giving an in-depth study of budget and budgetary control as a means of achieving the set objectives of the government and also to find out the type of problems that emerge during and after the approval of the budget.

The limitation of this study are substantial, some respondent ministries did not readily volunteer enough information as expected while some gave more than one response of classification of responses.  The researchers was able to overcome this by careful analysis, and because of the result oriented nature this researcher was able to pick out right answer for the appropriate places.
