Budgetary slack refers to the intentional overestimation of expenses or underestimation of revenues in a budget, creating a cushion for managers to meet financial targets more easily. This practice can lead to inefficiencies and misallocation of resources, as it distorts the true financial performance of an organization. Budgetary slack is often used to mitigate risk or enhance managerial performance evaluations.
