Question

“Budgeting is the same across different organisations and industries, so organisational strategy, industry and the broader goals and objectives of a business are not of much importance in the budgeting process”. Do you agree with this statement? Explain why or why not

So far this questioned was answered before with:

The statement cannot be agreed, as budget preparations vary from company to company as per the company's goals and strategies. Budgeting is estimated standards set which acts like an yardstick for respective departments (purchase, sales, production etc.) to perform. These budgets serve as a guidelines or target for the department to achieve effective and efficient output. These budgets are prepared analysing the past performance and other factors such as capacity and procedures and policies of the organisation

I feel this needs to be explained more - could you please write another 100 words explaining this question please :))
