Help

This family budget planner is meant to help you create a budget for an entire year.
Doing this will help you make predictions about where you may stand financially
in the future. If you are moving, changing jobs, purchasing a home, or making other
major life changes, it is essential to plan for many months down the road.

1. Edit/Create/Delete categories and subcategories

Use row operations, such as deleting or inserting an entire row.
The subtotal formulas are set up to allow this type of editing without messing up the
formulas, but you should always insert a row ABOVE the last row in the group or
BELOW the first row, so that the formulas stretch to include the row you added.
2. Verify that all of the subtotal formulas are correctly summing the correct cells
3. Modify the month headings as needed, to start with a different month
4. Enter your starting balance at the top of the worksheet.
5. Fill in the income and expenses for the year
a. You can copy and paste cells as needed
For example, enter an average fuel cost in Jan, and copy it across through Dec
b. Include large lump payments in the months in which they will likely occur
or use the approach of averaging the cost across each month. When using the
averaging approach, consider that your actual balance may not reflect the predicted
balance for the month. If you use the lump payment approach, it may be easier
to compare actual balances, but make sure you have enough saved.
c. Add cell comments as needed to help explain costs. For example, you might
include the names of Birthdays in comments for the Gifts Given category

Updating the Balance Each Month

If your actual balance at the end of a month is substantially different than the projected balance,
you may want to overwrite the formula in the "Projected End Balance" with your actual balance,
to update the projections for the rest of the year.
