Budgeting : formulation and execution

Exceptionally useful manual for all who deals with local government budget management. This collection of discussions can be used as a basic source on the formulation and execution of the annual budget. This book equally addresses the needs of public administration students, instructors and practicing public financial managers. This easy-to-use guide is presented in two parts: part 1 focuses on budget development, opening with readings designed to place the process of budgeting in the context of political economy, offering a review of budget setting, revenues and expenditures ; in the second part the authors discuss budget execution, cash and bebt management, controls (i.e. established accounting procedures), reporting practices, and acountability devices (auditing). Both parts introduce the reader to the variety of skills, perspectives, and concepts critical to budget management. Very reliable source of information about traditional practices and latest developments in the field of budgeting at affordable price.
