Budget planning is the basis for the successful existence of any state

Budget planning is an important component of financial planning, which complies with the requirements of financial state policy. Its essence from the economic point of view consists in the redistribution of GDP between the elements of the financial system when drawing up and approving budgets of various levels.

Budget planning represents the budget process in terms of drawing up, approving and executing the budget. Its meaning is determined by the functions that are displayed on the budget policy of the state, the choice of directions for budget financing, based on the need for rational financing of the country's economic and social programs, establishing rational forms of mobilizing budget revenues and their optimal structure.

When developing the budget for the next year, only reliable indicators of incomes and expenditures of taxpayers, as well as consumers of budgetary funds, should be used. Since the development of various industries, regions and enterprises is interrelated, it is necessary to take into account this interrelation when forecasting the tax potential and other budgetary needs of the state.

Budget planning and forecasting are two economic instruments that allow to form a financial plan of the state for the future taking into account certain indicators.

The most important condition for doing business with a view to profit at any level is the continuous improvement of management methods. There is a kind of doctrine among business representatives: "Managing is to Foresee." In connection with such a world view, planning and budgeting based on forecasting for the future increasingly takes its position. If financial planning is carried out for a long period, the budget is calculated for one year (budgetary) and is necessarily approved by a special legislative act.

Budget planning is carried out in the form of development and justification of the optimal way of development of the state with the help of the approved budget (it is a kind of balance at the state level between incomes and expenditures). At the same time, the budget balance can be either positive (surplus) or negative (deficit).

With budget forecasting, various mathematical methods are used: extrapolation, which takes into account the results of previous periods; And expert assessments, which is based on assessments of specialists in individual branches of science.

If budgetary planning (mainly) is applied at the state level, then budgeting creates an integral and effective management system and a separate business entity. At the same time, with a competently built budgeting system, the company has an opportunity to achieve those strategic goals that are determined by the company's management.

The term "budgeting" in English means "planning".

In medium-sized companies, it usually reduces only to the creation of estimates of revenues and expenditures. With the increase in turnover, it becomes necessary to conduct a more detailed analysis of its economic indicators, using all the same mathematical methods. Thanks to the efforts made and the additional funds spent, the manager will always possess information about the state of his business both in the enterprise as a whole and in its separate structural subdivisions.
