3. Comparing actual performance with the standard
4. Finding variance between the actual and the standard and the
reasons for the same

possible to separate them from another. Planning provides the
leases for control and control gives meaning to planning. An
efficient system of control helps to predict deviations well in
time and to initiate corrective steps before the loss occurs.
Controlling is concerned with seeing that all activities of the enterprises are being
conducted in conformity with the plans. Controlling may be defined as
"determining what is being accomplished, that is, evaluating the performance and
if necessary, applying corrective measures so that the performance takes place
according to plans".
The process of controlling involves the following steps:
1. Establishing standards of performance;

3. Comparing the actual performance with the standard;
