    ASSESSMENT OF BUDGETARY PERFORMANCE (IN CASE OF EZHA WEREDA FINANCE )
    (WOLKITE UNIVERSITY, 2025-08) ABDILMEJID YABA
    This study assesses the budgetary performance of the Ezha Wereda Finance Organization in the Gurage Zone, Ethiopia, focusing on the effectiveness of budget implementation and its impact on organizational goals. The primary objective is to evaluate budget preparation practices, identify factors limiting budgetary performance, and analyze variances between planned and actual expenditures. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research collected primary data through questionnaires and interviews with 28 employees, supplemented by secondary data from organizational reports. Key findings reveal that while budgets are generally realistic, challenges such as untimely fund disbursement, insufficient funds, poor technology, and management policies hinder optimal performance. The study also highlights consistent variances between planned and actual budgets, with actual expenditures falling below projections. Recommendations include adopting better budget systems, improving fund allocation, enhancing employee participation in budget preparation, and employing more experts to ensure timely project completion. The study underscores the importance of effective budgetary control for organizational success and suggests areas for future research to address gaps in implementation and performance evaluation : Keywords Budgetary performance, budget implementation, financial management, Ezha Wereda, Ethiopia.
