Give one <\/strong><strong>reason in support of your answer.(Delhi 2012)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> Yes, planning ensures that goals or objectives are clearly stated so that they act as a guide for deciding what action should be taken and in which direction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Why is it said that\u2019planning is pre-requisite for controlling\u2019? <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>(Delhi 2009c)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> Under the system of controlling, actual work performance is compared with standards.

(Delhi 2009c)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> According to Koontz and O\u2019 Donnell, \u2018Planning is deciding in advance what to do, how to do it, when to do it and who is to do it\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.

(Delhi 2013)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Ans. (i) Planning is continuous<\/strong> Plans are prepared for a specific period of time, may be for a month, a quarter or a year. At the end of that period, there is need for a new plan to be drawn on the basis of new requirements and future conditions. Management can\u2019t afford to follow rigid plans in the era of fast changes in technology, market, etc. Thus, a manager must develop or modify the plans from time to time as per the need. Hence, planning is a continuous process.<br \/>\n<strong>(ii) Planning is futuristic<\/strong> Planning is essentially looking ahead and preparing for the future. It is based on the proverb, \u2018look before you leap\u2019. In other words, it is carried out to achieve some objectives in future. It, therefore, becomes essential to anticipate or predict the future.<br \/>\nFor example, A manufacturer prepares next year\u2019s production plan after forecasting the demand. Therefore, it is said that planning is futuristic and involves thinking before doing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Explain the following features of planning<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Planning involves decision-making; and<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Planning is pervasive.   (Delhi 2013)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> <strong>(i) Planning involves decision-making<\/strong> The need of planning arises because of the availability of various alternatives to achieve specified objectives. It considers or evaluates the best alternative. Decision-making is an integral part of planning. A manager is surrounded by number of alternatives. He has to pick the best depending upon requirements and resources of the enterprises.<br \/>\n<strong>(ii) Planning is pervasive<\/strong> Planning is required at all levels of management as well as in all departments of the organisation. It is not only for top management but it differs at different levels and among different departments. The top level may be more concerned about planning for the organisation as a whole whereas, the middle level may be more specific in departmental plans and the lower level is concerned for the implementation of the same.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10. State any three advantages of planning. (Delhi 2012)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> Advantages of planning are as follows:<br \/>\n<strong>(i) Planning provides direction<\/strong> By stating in advance how work is to be done, planning provides direction for action. It reduces aimless activity and makes action more meaningful.<br \/>\n<strong>(ii) Planning reduces the risk of uncertainty<\/strong> Planning is always done for future and future is uncertain. With the help of planning, possible changes in future are anticipated and various activities are planned in the best possible way.<br \/>\n<strong>(iii) Planning facilitates decision-making<\/strong> Planning is an intellectual activity. It helps the manager to look into the future and make a choice from amongst various alternative courses of action. The manager has to evaluate each alternative and select the most viable option. Thus, decision-making is inherent in planning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>11. What is meant by planning? List any two features of planning.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> (Delhi 2010)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> Planning is the process of thinking before doing. It is the process of determining a course of action to achieve the desired results. Planning bridges the gap between \u2018where we are\u2019 and \u2018where we want to go\u2019.<br \/>\nTwo features of planning are as follows:<br \/>\n(i) Planning is a goal-oriented function of management.<br \/>\n(ii) Planning is a continuous process.<\/p>\n<p><strong>12. Explain how planning provides direction to action? (Delhi 2008)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> Planning provides direction to action by                    ,<br \/>\n(i) Clearly defining objectives\/goals to be achieved by an organisation.<br \/>\n(ii) Stating the action to be taken for the achievement of the objectives.<br \/>\n(iii) Making the employees aware of how they will have to work, by giving them necessary directions for achieving objectives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>13. Explain how planning is\u2019futuristic\u2019? (Delhi 2008)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans. <\/strong><strong>Planning is futuristic<\/strong> Planning is essentially looking ahead and preparing for the future. It is based on the proverb, \u2018look before you leap\u2019. In other words, it is carried out to achieve some objectives in future. It, therefore, becomes essential to anticipate or predict the future.<br \/>\nFor example, A manufacturer prepares next year\u2019s production plan after forecasting the demand. Therefore, it is said that planning is futuristic and involves thinking before doing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>14. Explain how planning reduces the risk of uncertainty? <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>(All India 2008)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> Planning reduces the risk of uncertainty because<br \/>\n(i) It enables a manager to look ahead and anticipate changes.<br \/>\n(ii) It shows the way to deal with changes and uncertain events.<br \/>\n(iii) Changes or events can not be eliminated, as they can only be anticipated and managerial responses to them can be developed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>15. Explain how planning is a \u2018mental exercise\u2019? (Delhi 2008)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> Planning is a \u2018mental exercise\u2019 because<br \/>\n(i) It requires application of the mind involving foresight, intelligent imagination and sound judgement.<br \/>\n(ii) It is basically an intellectual activity of thinking rather than doing because planning determines the actions to be taken.<br \/>\n(iii) It requires logical and systematic thinking rather than guesswork or intuitional thinking. In other words, thinking for planning must be orderly, based on the analysis of facts and forecasts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>16. Explain how planning facilitates decision-making? (All India 2008)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ans.<\/strong> Planning facilitates decision-making because<br \/>\n(i) Decision-making involves choice among various alternatives and activities. Planning provides the framework to make the best choice.<br \/>\n(ii) Planning lays down the criterion for evaluating alternative courses of action and selecting the most appropriate alternative.<br \/>\n(iii) Planning involves setting targets and predicting future conditions and thereby making rational decisions.<br \/>\n(iv) It is planning that provides the guidelines for decision-making, by listing the goals of an organisation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>17.
