| Abstract [eng] |
As the world in which organizations compete is changing, there must be a system to support strategic objectives and competitive priorities. Despites many criticisms, the budgeting theory has been very useful in pinpointing specific problems and providing adequate solutions related to budgeting system. Sometimes the findings of budgeting studies have been contradictory and vague, but in general, the most recommendations have been tested and verified in real situations. I can freely say that traditional budgeting is not dead yet, since it is still being used in the majority of companies around the world. However, many of them are starting to realize that the same budgeting model which has been used in 1920 can’t be used in the 21st century. Business environmental conditions are no longer the same and the budgeting system needs to become more responsive to the needs of customers requirements set by competition. How exactly this change in budgeting system will involve, is something what each individual company needs to discover by itself. The main problem of this thesis is that Lithuanian companies are small and they can’t adopt the budgeting techniques of budgeting theory. The research object of this thesis is a budget model for a small company’s preparation and adaptation. The purpose of the master’s thesis is to explain the budget value for the organization. In order to achieve the aforementioned goal, this thesis is based on the analysis of existing theoretical and practical knowledge. The second part is dedicated to the analysis of budgeting demand in Lithuanian companies. In accordance the analysis, there were presented the budget model for a small company. In the third part of the thesis is presented the budget model adaptation in the company UAB “Vaistukas”. |
