Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) - A coordinated set of tools that helps managers assess the
company’s future and know if they are reaching their performance goals; includes subsystems for (1)
planning, (2) measuring and recording results, and (3) evaluating performance.
Budget - A detailed plan, expressed in quantitative terms, that specifies how resources will be
acquired and used during a specified period of time.
Primary Purpose:
1. Planning - quantifying a plan of action
2. Facilitating Communication and Coordination - organization must be aware of the plans made
by other managers
3. Allocating Resources -
4. Controlling Profit and Operations
5. Evaluating Performance and Providing Incentives
Sales Budget
Purchase Budget
Direct labor Budget
* Musician performs at the festival from 10:00 am until 2:00 am for three days. Although technicians and guest-support
staff also work before and after the musician performs, the average number of these staff needed is driven by the
festival's music hours and attendee hours respectively.
Production Overhead and SG&A Budget
Cash Budget
Budgeted Income Statement
Budgeted statement of cash flow
Production Budget for a Manufacturing Firm
Production Budget
Formula:
Sales in unit + Desired ending inventory = Total Units required - Expected beginning inventory of
finished goods = units to be produced
Sample Problem:
Direct-Materials Budget
Raw materials required for production + Desired ending inventory of raw materials = Total raw
materials required - Expected beginning inventory raw materials = Raw materials to be purchased
Chair frames
Chairs to be produced 6,000.00 15,500.00 19,000.00 9,500.00 50,000.00
Chair frames required per chair x 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00
Chair frames to be purchased= 6,000.00 15,500.00 19,000.00 9,500.00 50,000.00
Cost per chair frame x 20.00 20.00 20.00 20.00 20.00
Total cost of chair frames 120,000.00 310,000.00 380,000.00 190,000.00 1,000,000.00
Total cost of raw materials purchases 870,600.00 2,021,800.00 2,329,400.00 1,178,200.00 6,400,000.00
+Ten percent of the expected raw material requirements for the 1st quarter of the next year 20x3,
which is assumed to be 72,000 sq. ft. (sales and therefore production, is predicted to be the same in
each quarter of 20x3 as in the corresponding quarter of 20x2)
=Since the chair frames are delivered on a just-in-time basis, there is no need to buffer inventory
stocks. Thus, the number of frames purchased each quarter is the same as the needed each quarter.

Expected beginning inventory of FG 500.00
Absorption Manufacturing Cost x 163.50
Cost of goods manufactured 8,175,000.00 81,750.00
Divide: Total units produced 50,000.00
Standard Direct Material Quantity - The total amount of material normally required to produce a
finished product, including allowances for normal waste and inefficiency.
Standard Direct Material Price - The total delivered cost, after subtracting any purchase discounts
taken.
Standard Direct Labor Quantity - The number of labor hours normally needed to manufacture one unit
of product.
Standard Direct Labor Rate - Total hourly cost of compensation, including fringe benefits.
DMPV=AQ(AP-SP)
Direct Material Quantity Variance
Standard Quantity Allowed - The standard quantity per unit of output multiplied by the number of units
of actual output.
DMQV= SP(AQ-SQ)
Direct Material Purchase Variance - The difference between the standard price and the actual price
paid for direct material purchased, multiplied by the actual quantity of material purchased.
DMPV = PQ(AP-SP)
Direct Labor Variances
Direct Labor rate Variances - The difference between actual and standard hourly labor rate multiplied
by the actual hours of direct labor used.
DLRV=AH(AR-SR)
Direct Labor efficiency variance - The difference between actual and standard hours of direct labor
multiplied by the standard hourly labor rate.
DLEV= SR(AH-SH)
Direct Labor Variance
