Managing Budgets

Sponsored links

One of the ways in which organisations attempt to achieve their strategic objectives is by preparing budgets, then monitoring actual performance against them. A budget can be described as a plan set out in monetary terms, prepared and approved prior to a defined period of time, and usually showing either or both the planned income to be generated and the expenditure to be incurred during that time period. This course explores how you prepare, create and monitor a budget.
