Budgeting

A budget is a comprehensive financial plan setting forth the expected route for achieving the financial and operational goals of the church or religious organization.

A budget, by its very nature, is a series of future estimates that are expressed in financial terms and acts as a standard against which actual financial performance is measured. It is a projection of future revenue and expenses, based on historical data, present circumstances, and future projections.

Budgeting plays a key role in any organization's planning process because:

  • A budget formalizes planning
