The purpose of this course is to provide students with the theory and concepts underlying budgeting practices (i.e., what has existed, is currently in use, and has been proposed for contemporary purposes). It will focus on research related to budgeting and controls, how these topics relate to a firm's strategy, management motivation, performance measures and risk management. Topics will include budgeting in uncertain times, the balanced scorecard, and "beyond budgeting" approaches, as well as others. The pedagogical approach is to address these topics through case studies and to introduce and apply relevant research findings.
