Differences between Complete and partial budgeting
Complete Budgeting |
Partial Budgeting |
It accounts for a drastic change inorganization of an operation of a farm. |
It always treats minor change |
All the available alternatives are considered in complete budgeting |
Only consider a few, generally two alternatives |
It is used for estimating the results of entire organization and operation of a farm. |
It only helps for studying net effect in terms of costs and returns or relatively minor change |
It is complex, tedious and takes more time for full budgeting. |
It is simple, easy and quick |
Example of Partial Budgeting
If we know the complete budgeting of wheat cultivation, we use the concept of partial budgeting in the technological change such as split dose of fertilizer application.

Net Gain = B – A = Rs. 1160 – Rs. 40 = Rs. 1140/5 Katha = Rs. 1140*3 = Rs. 3420/ha.

C. Total Cost = TFC + TVC |

Total Return = Rs. 7000/10 Katha = Rs. 7000*3 = Rs. 21,000/ha
