What is a forecasting budget?
It is used to get an idea of what a comforcasted budgetpany might expect to earn in a fiscal year. You take last years expenses, increased by any percentage that you think they might go up, also include any new expenses you expect to incur. Then take the years expected revenue, usually last years plus projected growth, and subtract the expenses. The difference is projected profit. All of this combined is a forcasted budget


A forecasting budget can be both annual and more frequent. Generally an annual budget is prepared in order to determine if the organisation is progressing as expected. A more frequent cash flow budget should be prepared to ensure that the organisation is able to meet current obligations as they fall due, and they are progressing effectively in regard to cash flows.
