    Sir what is the meaning of

    Establishing strategic options
    And
    Establishing long term objectives

    And
    Why can’t the above be the purposes of budget ?

    And secondly why can’t scenario planning be a short term or medium term element

    Budgets are normally detailed plans for the coming year, whereas deciding on the strategy and the long-term objectives are long-term planning.

    Scenario planning is tied in with the strategic planning.

    If you are a car maker currently only making petrol cars, then if you think that the scenario in 10 years time will be that customers will only want electric cars you will develop a strategic plan to change to only making electric cars.
