description Defense is one of the highest priorities of any state. The state plans and defines the defense policy, and the responsibility for defense activities performance is held by the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces. The state, starting from its strategic missions and economic power, allocates funds for preparation and performance of defense activities. The conduct of operations, as the basic and fundamental form of the use of military forces in wartime and peacetime, represents the key (basic) form of the defense activities performance. In order to achieve the objective of an operation, it is necessary to provide proper resources. The planning and financing system is a good foundation for establishing an optimal and balanced relation between the objective of an operation and the available funds, through planning and calculation of realistic costs. It is based on the classification of expenses according to the functional model of cost distribution. Further operationalization of this model should provide realistic information about the expenses in each phase of the operation, especially during the planning phase which is decisive for making an adequate decision. In our circumstances, the planning and financing system is not yet at the necessary level, precisely due to vaguely defined basic planning elements (norms, standards, criteria, and units of standardization). The normative regulation of planning elements and the integration into the necessary information system will help create conditions for realistic and efficient planning of operation expenses and functioning of the Armed Forces.
