1. ORGANIZATION PROFILE:
1.1 Industry profile:
Electrical product production and demand have traditionally come from established
markets in North America and Western Europe, but industrialization and urbanization in
emerging markets are creating new electrical product market opportunities, as well as
competitive pressures. The US electrical products manufacturing industry includes about
5,700 establishments (single-location companies and units of multi-location companies)
with combined annual revenue exceeding $125 billion.
In 1963, Damji L. Shah and his younger brother Jadavji L. Shah embarked on the journey
towards the creation of Anchor with a clear mission of producing quality products and
not mere products. They created the first ever Indian brand of switches which hitherto
were largely imported and locally sold. The duo began with a small unit in Mumbai
suburbs to make ‘Tumbler Switches’ and the operation grew and eventually reached up to
Daman. The increasing sale and variety of the business reflected the uncanny ability of
Jadavjibhai (as Shri. J. L. Shah was fondly addressed) to spot an opportunity.
Jadhavjibhai’s keen business acumen and talent to utilize human resource and the
remarkable design and marketing skills of Damjibhai made for a potent combination,
which enabled Anchor to launch winning products year after year and helped spread its
operations nationwide. Both worked on the principle that to be successful, a product must
be good, of consistent quality and cost-effective enable it to compete and at the same time
offer great value-for-money to the customers. This belief led them to launch extremely
innovative distribution and marketing strategies that were much ahead of the time vis-à-
vis those used by other Indian manufacturers. They were pioneers in many ways, for
instance, they introduced the concept of branches and stock points being fully operated
by agents on commission, they arranged foreign tours for dealers as business incentives,
and they made extensive use of print and (later) electronic media to promote their brands.
Current Ownership
In April 2007, Panasonic Electric Works (PEW) acquired 80% of all issued shares of
Anchor Electricals Pvt. Ltd.
In October 2009, PEW acquired the remaining 20% of all issued unlisted shares of
Anchor.
The founding products, business philosophy and current operational profile of Anchor
closely resemble those of PEW, thus making the company an ideal match for its Asia
strategy in the Electricals Construction Material segment. Moreover, PEW has more than
80% market share in Japan alone. In the Asian market, PEW ranks no. 1 in service with
manufacturing facilities in Thailand, Taiwan, Indonesia, China and Korea, in addition to
Japan. Over the last five decades, Anchor has managed to capture the attention of every
citizen in this country. It started with a humble vision of manufacturing electrical
products of outstanding quality at a time when the market involving electrical switches or
wiring devices was handled by the unorganized sector. Anchor’s experience, skill set, and
understanding of the Indian market is unmatched in the field of electrical product since
1963. With a constantly expanding product range and growing market share, Anchor is
one of the largest domestic manufacturers of electrical construction materials. Anchor
Electrical Pvt. Ltd. is a company wholly owned subsidiary of Panasonic Corporation.
Anchor and Panasonic’s synergy in 2007 resulted in products that cater to better energy
generation, management and conservation. With Panasonic’s cutting-edge technology
and Anchor’s vast customer support network, Anchor Panasonic today delivers a
seamless and vast range of innovative electrical, light and ventilation products that
exceed global standards.

of the company is being analyzed and further step are taken to rectify the
upcoming uncertainty and to frame the future budget of the company. It supervise
whether all the work are working according to the budget. It provied information
regarding which overhead should be given more focus and where the plan is being
failing
Identify the activities to be undertaken during the budgetary period.
Estimated expenditure for the organization’s activities during the financial
year/budgetary period.
Compels management to think about the future.
To set out detailed plans for achieving the targets for each department and
(ideally) each manager, to anticipate and give the organization purpose and
direction.
2.2 Overview of Theme and Topic.
It is an analytical study regarding the factory overhead of Anchor Electrical
Pvt. Ltd, Daman. In which a brief explanation is given regarding to the
preparation of budget in the company.
It is a study regarding the classification of important factor which majorly
fluctuate the budget of the company.
Through this project, the researcher tried to study the areas where major care
is to be taken while preparation of budget
Budget help the department to look after expenses with caution and care as it
supervise over all the expense of the organization and also see whether all the
expense are done according to the plan.
Budget help the organization to make the purchase and do the investment when it
is needed because if purchase of any asset is done before hand than the
unnecessary blockage of fund will be done which is not good for the
organization.
Budget helps the organization to evaluate the expenses periodically which can be
used to measure the performance of the department and if the plan is not working
according to the plan than a step can be taken to verify it.
As said above budget can be used to measure the performance of the department
as budget provide a periodical data which is to be achieve every month as it can
help us to measure the performance
2.4Problem Statement.
The research on the topic “An analytical study on factory overheads with reference
to Anchor Electricals Pvt. Ltd” was chosen with the project guide at the
organization. This topic will be helpful in enhancing the researcher’s knowledge in
the field of financial management. As per the study the researcher has tried to
understand the “budget on the factory overhead of the company” by analyzing the
expense budget of the organization. The topic was set by keeping light on the set
objectives of the project.
The main problem regarding the preparation of budget is about to see which
are the controllable cost and which are the uncontrollable cost.
Table no: 1
The above table shows the different sub-overhear under the main overhead which are
mainly classified as; Employee cost, Depreciation, Power, Repairs, Traveling and
Other expense.
3. Literature Review
3.1Theoretical Background:
Budget:
According to The Institute of Cost and Management Accountant (UK) defines a budget
as “a financial and/or quantitative statement, prepared and approved prior to a defined
period of time, of the policy to be pursued during that period for the purpose of attaining
a given objective. It may include income, expenditure and the employment of capital.”
Sometimes the term “budgeting” and “forecasting” are used interchangeably. Both terms
have some similarities, for example, both relate to future events and involve prediction of
something. The basic difference between budgeting and forecasting lies in degree of
sophistication involved in the predictions used by them. According to the National
Association of Accountants (USA), “forecasting is a process of predicting or estimating a
future happening”
Budget Planning:
Almost all business activities require some planning to ensure efficient and maximum use
of scare resources. The budget is a formal planning framework that provides specific
deadlines to achieve departmental objectives and contribute towards the overall
objectives of an organization. A budget incorporated expected performance and present
managerial targets. These targets guide the business operations and help in overcoming
problems and analyzing the future. Budgeting influences the formulation of all business
strategies and subsequently assists business managers in executing such strategies.
Employee Cost:
Employee costs are the cost which occurs for the payment for all the human resources
required for the purpose of the production for the upcoming year. It is mainly decided on
the basis of available employee and requirement of it in future to fulfill the production
need. It consists of Staff, Expert, Payroll Worker, Contract Worker, Staff Welfare &
Others and over time workers.
Depreciation:
In accountancy, depreciation refers to two aspects of the same concept: the decrease in
value of assets, and the allocation of the cost of assets to periods in which the assets are
used. The former affects the balance sheet of a business or entity, and the latter affects the
net income that they report. Generally the cost is allocated, as depreciation expense,
among the periods in which the asset is expected to be used. This expense is recognized
by businesses for financial reporting and tax purposes.
Vehicle:
Vehicle costs are the cost which occurs for the purpose of transport of good from one
place to another. It includes the cost of sending the good from manufacturing plant to
assembly plant or to the various distributors.
Traveling:
Traveling is the cost which occurs for the various purposes of travels of employee of the
organization for the purpose of the company. It includes the expenses which are being
occurred for the purpose of travel which can be domestic or overseas.
Repairs:
Repair costs are the cost which occurs during the process of production due to the
breakdown of the machinery or other asset of the company.
Other Expenses:
Other expenses includes Miscellaneous, Legal & Professional, Rent, Rates & Taxes,
production, packing, commission, bank charges, printing and stationary, insurance, bad
debt, sundry expense, postage expense, R&D expenses, office expense, security charges,
garden expenses etc.
When matter relating to budget and budgetary control are carefully planned
an implemented by any organization (most especially government owned
organization), it can lead to decrease in cost and increase in revenue, which
in turn leads to maximization of profit.
Though budgeting and budgetary control could enhance the efficiency of the
organization’s performance, it should be noted that it is not a “magic stick”
that can replace effective management or ensuring the going concern of an
organization and sustainability of operations.
Government budget affects the lives of every citizens, it can have the greatest
impact on the wellbeing and prospects of the people. A cut in budget can have
a great impact on programs that benefit the poor and vulnerable, as well as
other items, such as interest on the debt, the public-sector wage bill, or
military expenditures
4. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
4.1 Research Design & Methodology
Research Design:
The research design refers to the overall strategy that you choose to integrate the different
components of the study in a coherent an logical way, thereby, ensuring you will
effectively address the research problem; it constitutes the blueprint for the collection,
measurement and analysis of data.
An exploratory research design is conducted about a research problem when there are
few or no earlier studies to refer. The focus is on gaining insights and familiarity for later
investigation or undertaken when problems are in a preliminary stage of investigation.
Analytical research is a specific type of research that involves critical thinking skills and
the evaluation of facts and information relative to the research being conducted. From
analytical research, a person finds out critical details to add new idea to the material
being produced.
The researcher has used analytical research for the study conducted.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
survey research, participant observation and secondary data. Quantitative method aim to
classify features, count them, create statistical, models to test hypotheses and explain
observation. Qualitative methods aim for a complete, detailed description of
observations, including the context of events and circumstances.
DEFINITION:
Data collection is the systematic approach to gathering and measuring information from a
variety of sources to get a complete and accurate picture of an area of interest. Data
collection enables a person or organization to answer relevant questions, evaluate
outcomes and make predictions about future probabilities and trends.
TYPE OF DATA:
PRIMARY DATA:
Primary data are those which are collected for the first time. It is type of data which are
collected by the researcher himself.
SECONARY DATA:
Secondary data are those data that have already been collected by others. These are
usually in journals, periodicals, dailies, research publications, official’s records etc.
The required data for the study are collected from secondary sources. The data are
collected from the annual report of the company and from the financial reports.
TIME FRAME:
The research study covers a period of five years commencing from 2013-2014 to
2017-2018.
GAP Analysis:
GAP analysis is a tool which is used to find out the difference between budgeted
expenses and actual expenses. It gives the number which represents the difference
between the amount allocated and the actual expense which had occurred. It gives the
percentage increase or decrease between actual and budget.
PARETO Analysis:
PARETO analysis gives the percentage of overhead occupied by them in budget. It help
the manager to find out which factor should be given more preference at time of framing
budget of the organisation.
machine in the month of October than we should buy it in October only as if we buy
it before that than an unnecessary blockage of fund will be one which can be used for
other investment activity.
Budget is a tool which can be used to measure the expense of the organization which
is used for the purpose to meet different expenses occurred in the business
Through budget one can measure the performance of the different department as it
give the proper result between the plan and actual.
Limitation:
Budgeting is based on the estimate and forecasted data as the accuracy of budget
can’t be said to be 100% accurate as it’s mainly dependent on the past data.
The preparation of budget can consume more time than needed as more focus is
needed to prepare it and the management cannot focus on the main purpose of their
core work.
When a budget is being allotted to the department and if it is not being utilized till
the end of the year than the department tries to utilize the fund in the unwanted
material or assets which become a death stock for the organization.
A. Sales:
The very first step while planning for the business plan of budget is to decide about the
amount of sales for the forthcoming year which is being decided by the head office of the
company. And then planning is made according to it for the purpose of its production and
sale. After estimation of amount of sale, the amount is divided into different product
segment as of which amount the production of different product is to be made
For example:
The amount of sale is decided by head office if we assume that the sale to be made is of
Rs3,000cr than the following division should be made according to product wise.
Here now out of this 2000cr production are allotted to wiring devices. Hence in Anchor
the main production are of:
ROMA.
VISION.
AVE.
KITKAT.
WOODS.
PENTA MODULAR.
RIDER.
PENTA
MODULAR BOXES.
Wiring device are produced in the form of finished goods and semi finished goods in
Daman and Haridwar. From Daman semi finished goods are shifted to Haridwar which
are then converted into finished good after assembling them. And finished goods
produced in Daman are shifted to Dalwada warehouse (in Daman) from where all the
finished good are distributed to the different distributor in the country and also overseas.
Anchor

Out of this, total production quantity is being found out through which the total cost and
per unit cost is being found out:
Total Expense
Per Head Count 404 +27 +14
While calculating employee expense the calculation is done on the basis of total available
employee in the certain month for which the calculation will be done. For Example; if the
calculation of month of April is to be done than the total requirement of the employee
will be found out and then the total employee expense will be calculated out of that.
While calculation of depreciation the total available machine and the new purchase
machine are being considered. For calculation of depreciation of machine straight line
method (Depreciation Expense = (Cost – Salvage value) / Useful life) is being used
through which the existence of machine is being not disappeared in books of account
after the value of machine become nil. Different types of rate are being used for the
different asset as guided by the companies act. And there is also variation in the rate of
calculation of depreciation for the machine which are working for different shifts.

D. TRANSPORTATION EXPENSES:
E. TRAVELING EXPENSE:
Traveling expenses are calculated on the basis of travel of a person for the purpose of
organization over the specific period of time.
F. OTHER EXPENSE:
All the expenses are mainly dependent on the quantity of production, usage of asset,
employee, and other such expenses which are directly linked with the purpose of
production like electricity charges, repairs of fixed asset (machine-building-plant etc.),
rent, stationary and other such expenses
Table no: 4
. INTERPRETATION:
Calculation of power is mainly done on the basis of the rate per unit of the electric power
and on the basis of the need of production to be done in upcoming year. Different
percentage of electricity is allotted to different department.

GAP Analysis Of Actual & Budgeted Expense For The F.Y. 2012-2013.
INTERPRETATION:
In the year of 2013 researcher found that employee cost, vehicle cost and traveling
cost is more than budget and through this it can be said that the budget was
inappropriate.
The percentage of depreciation was 94% which was very near to the budgeted plan
through which researcher found that the plan was appropriate.
But in power and repairs it was found that budgeted value is more than actual so it
needs to be improved through proper control.
GAP Analysis Of Actual & Budgeted Expense For The F.Y.2013-2014
INTERPRETATION:
In year 2014 the above table shows that employee cost is more than the budgeted
plan so more supervision was required in this area.
The percentage of vehicle is 95% which was very near to the budgeted plan
through which researcher found that the plan was appropriate.
Utilization of depreciation is being done properly as compared to 2013. Travelling,
power repairs and other expenses are less than budget so it is an unbalanced plan.
INTERPRETATION:
In the year 2015, the above table shows that employee cost, deprecation and
vehicle budgeted plan are made appropriate or it can be said that the plan are
followed very appropriately.
But still the more care should be given on traveling, power, repairs and other
expenses as they are less than 85%.
INTERPRETATION:
In the year 2016, the above table shows that depreciation, traveling and repairs are
being occurred according to the budgeted plan as they all are above 90%.
But yet organization should have to take more care on employee cost, power and
other expense as they are not able to reach the plan.
The organization should work on vehicle budget as it is very near to the
appropriate plan.
INTERPRETATION:
In the year 2017 researcher found that employ cost, depreciation and vehicle
budget are made appropriate as it is meeting the nearest to the planned budget.
But traveling and repairs need to get more improvement as they are near get
accepted as they are above 85% but less than 95%.
But power and other expense budget are very unbalance plan as they are below
85%.
Comparative Analysis:
2013 Comparative Analysis
INTERPRETATION:
The above table shows the comparative analysis of ANCHOR ELECTRICAL
Pvt. Ltd. of 2013 budget with its actual.
In this year we can see that employee cost, vehicle and traveling cost are more
than the budget which is not a good sign for the company.
INTERPRETATION:
From the above table researcher found that yet organization have to work on
the planning of employee cost as actual is yet more than the budget.
The budget of the year 2014 can be consider as unbalance plan as the total of
the budget is more than the actual cost.
INTERPRETATION:
From the above figure researcher found that the budget of the company is
being becoming appropriate as compare to the above year.
The total difference between budget and actual is very minute so it can be
said that the budget was efficient.

INTERPRETATION:
From the above table of PARETO ANALYSIS researcher found that major cost is
being incurring in employee cost so more focus should be given on it as it is
occupying 52.4% of total budget. As it is the major factor influencing budget of
the company.
The researcher also found that depreciation is also incurring major cost out of the
total budget that is 22.5%. So the organization should also give more focus on
depreciation too.
Though repairs, vehicle, power, travelling and other expenses are having low
share as compare to employee cost and depreciation but they should also be given
focus as they also influence the total budget.

INTERPRETATION:
From the table no: 2 researcher have forecasted the employee cost on the basis of
requirement of employee in the upcoming year by considering their wage rate,
bonus and their increment in the future.
From the table no:3 researcher have forecasted the depreciation on the basis of
available machinery and also considering the future plan to purchase new
machinery. And by also considering different rate for different assets and also on
the basis of their utilization.
As vehicle, travelling, repairs and other expense are not certain so we cannot
calculate it on the basis of future data so it is being forecasted by considering it as
115% than the preceding year.
From the table no:4 researcher have forecasted the budget for electricity by
considering its unit price and also use of it in the upcoming year.
6.1 Findings:
PARETO ANALYSIS reveals that
Major cost is being incurring in employee cost so more focus should be
given on it as it is occupying 52.4% of total budget.
Depreciation should also be given more focus as it is also occupying more
shares in budget as compare to other.
The difference between the budget and actual is due to the unplanned budget
which occurs when some unpredicted event occur in the year which was not
stated in the budget which increases the actual than the budget in some
department or reduce the actual than budget.
Many time departments are not able to utilize the given fund which are
allotted to them for the purpose to incur expenses of the company (budget are
allotted mainly on the basis of month) and to meet the budget target they
mainly utilize the fund by the end of the term.
GAP analysis reveals that;
The GAP in the initial year that is 2013-14 was very high because of
employee cost, vehicle and traveling budget was inappropriate as the
actual cost was more than the actual expense which has occurs.
The GAP between budget and actual is reducing as in many overhead the
expense are nearly to meet it budget and it is also not increasing than
actual in the year 2017 due to proper analysis of the past data used for the
preparation of budget.
6.2 CONCLUSION:
The study has helped the researcher to successfully achieve the predetermine objective of
the study. The project has assisted the researcher to learn various things relate to

8. PROJECT CONTRIBUTION:
SUGGESTION:
Through this it can be concluded that the overhead which are having more
overhead with more percentage should be given more preference at the
time of budgeting. As we had seen that more of the budget is being
covered by employee cost and depreciation so we should more concentrate
on it.
With the increase in number of quantity or sales the cost will increase as
more the quantity to be produce it will require more number of overhead
so the organization will have to frame it budget according to their future
production.
