Abstract

This study aims to review the rolling forecast approach conceptually and
giving information about the implementation process. The study also includes
the comparison of the rolling forecast with traditional budgeting and the use
of the approach in practice. The two important advantages of the rolling
forecast, compared to traditional budgeting, are accuracy and flexibility. In
the literature, there are different findings of the use of the rolling forecast
both in terms of widespread use and non-use. There is also evidence that
traditional budgeting tools are still widely used, but that the rolling
forecast has the potential to expand in the future.

SÜREKLİ BÜTÇELEME: ALTERNATİF BİR BÜTÇELEME YAKLAŞIMI

Abstract

Bu
çalışmanın amacı, sürekli bütçeleme yaklaşımını kavramsal olarak ele almak ve
uygulama sürecine ilişkin bilgi vermektir. Ayrıca çalışmada sürekli
bütçelemenin geleneksel bütçeleme ile mukayesesine ve uygulamadaki kullanım
durumuna yer verilmektedir. Sürekli bütçelemenin, gele        neksel bütçeleme ile kıyaslandığında öne çıkan iki avantajı:
planlamada tutarlılık ve esnekliktir. Literatürde yer alan araştırmalarda sürekli
bütçelemenin yaygın biçimde kullanıldığı yönündeki bulguların yanı sıra
kullanımının oldukça sınırlı olduğu yönünde bulgulara da rastlanmaktadır. Öte
yandan geleneksel bütçeleme araçlarının hala yaygın olarak kullanılmakta
olduğu, ancak sürekli bütçelemenin gelecekte yaygınlaşma potansiyeline sahip
olduğu yönünde bulgular da vardır.
