This study uses a structural equation modeling approach to investigate the influence of information asymmetry and leader member exchange on budget participation to managerial performance by using goal commitment and ambiguity role as mediation variables, in Working Units, Magelang Municipality Government, Central Java. Based on a questionnaire survey of 101 local government officials involved in budget preparation, we find that information asymmetry has a positive effect on budget participation. The commitment on goals mediates the relationship between budget participation and managerial performance.
