                                                     By: Naba Hashmi (Karachi)
                The sales budget shows the Quantities of each product that the company plans to sell and the intended selling price.
                It provides the predictions of total revenue from which cash receipts   from customers will be estimated, it also
                supplies the basic data for constructing budget for production costs, and for selling, distribution and administrative
                expenses. The sales budget is therefore   the foundation of all other budgets, all are ultimately dependent on the
                volume of sales.
                The sales volume is based on working of marketing employees. If employment is increased for advertisement of the
                products, the volume of sales increases ultimately.

                Long term benefits of natural resources in the light
                of Holy Quran.
                Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and
                the  earth  and  the  alternation  of  the
                night and the day are signs for those of
                understanding. (Surah al Imran 190).
                Who  remember  Allah  while  standing
                or sitting or [lying] on their sides and give
                thought to the creation of the heavens and the
                earth, [saying], “Our Lord, You did not create this
                aimlessly; exalted are You [above such a thing]; then protect us from the punishment of the Fire. (Surah al Imran 191).
