            The Master Budget for a profit oriented organization seeks to build a set of interrelated budgets which provide a complete "picture" of the operations of the business over some future period, usually twelve months. The elements of the master budget address both operating and financial concerns. (Blocher, 2002).
             It is not difficult to devise a master or overall budget. It is simply your realistic, long-term aspirations translated into total costs.

The path to success for the successful is almost always supported by a plan, a specific, written charting of the steps needed to accomplish the intended success. Success is not achieved by accident. Success is a planned event. (www.debtfreebenefits.com).
             A firm's strategic plan describes how the firm matches its own strengths and weaknesses with the opportunities and threats in the marketplace in order to accomplish its long-term goals.
