Abstract
This study which is titled "Budgetary Goals and their attainment in
Public Sector undertakings: As study of Kaduna State Agricultural
Development Project (KADP)" appraises budgeting and budgetary systems at
KADP.
This work is an attempt in the right direction of gaining an insight into
the concept of Budgetary goals and their attainment in non-profit oriented
organizations. The need to assess how budgetary goals are set and attained in
an organization is as fundamental as the study of the organization itself.
It is as a result of this that financial statements were gathered from two
directions - those that were incorporated fcr profit motive with a view to
maximizing shareholders' wealth and those that were established not for profit
making but rather, to fulfil some social responsibilities to the society as in the
case of KADP.
The study is divided into five chapters wnich are not mutually exclusive.
They study found out that though there is adequate planning and budget
procedure in KADP, budgetary control system is inadequate in the sense that
they system has failed in its implementation.
Recommendations are therefore made to ensure not only adequate
budget implementation, but also to provide for adequate fvnd and its utilization.
It must be stressed that the problems involved in budgeting and goal
attainment are not peculiar to Kaduna Agricultural Development project alone
but to all non - profit making organizations in the country.
