    Hi,

    Budgets are targets to be achieved right.
    Standards are pre determined cost per unit.
    So are the both the same thing? My understanding was that budget is on a total basis where as standard is on a per unit basis

    Budgets are plans – using them as targets is just one of their uses.

    Standard costs are effectively budgeted costs for a company producing goods and will be used in the preparation of budgets.

    Do watch my free lectures on budgeting.
