Abstract

The budget is a tool utilized by companies to regulate resource utilization within a specified timeframe. However, discrepancies frequently arise between the planned budget and actual execution, potentially leading to what is known as budgetary slack. This slack occurs due to conflicts between those setting the budget and those implementing it.
