About this product

Budgets that are set once in January and ignored are not budgets.

Read the full description

Budgets that are set once in January and ignored are not budgets. This workbook keeps departmental budgets alive: you enter actuals as each month closes, the forecast moves forward to always show the next 12 months, and the lines that need an explanation are flagged with the questions to ask.

What is inside:

  • Setup: first month, last closed month, thresholds for commentary, a company cost envelope, up to 8 departments, up to 14 account lines and an approval matrix
  • Budget, Actuals and Reforecast sheets: 60 lines by 24 months each. The Reforecast lets you change a future month without touching the original budget, so you can always measure against the plan
  • Rolling 12M: the next 12 open months by line and by department. Close April and the window moves to start in May
  • Variance Commentary: year to date budget, actual and variance, remaining months, full-year outlook, the Explain flag and a prompt for the right questions (over budget: cause, one-off or repeating, recoverable? Under budget: timing or real saving?), plus space for commentary, action, owner and due date
  • Dept Summary: one row per department with status and a chart of year to date budget versus actual
  • Approvals: Draft, Submitted, Approved or Returned by department, the approver needed from the matrix, days to approve, headroom against the envelope and a test that says whether the budget can be locked
  • Nine checks and a Worked Example with a fictional group closed through March

Who it is for: finance managers, FP&A staff, general managers and owners of UAE groups and mid-sized businesses with several departments or branches, and anyone who wants a budget process without buying software.

What it is not: it budgets costs only, not revenue, headcount, capex or cash. It does not connect to accounting software, does not lock sheets and the approval matrix is an example. It is not financial advice.

Time saved: collecting budgets by email and reconciling them each month usually takes days. With one workbook, one set of lines and automatic variance flags, the monthly review is a matter of entering actuals and reading the flags. The saving depends on how many departments take part.

Requirements: Microsoft Excel 2016 or later, Google Sheets or LibreOffice Calc.
