Course Project Assignment: Budget Planning
Note: Review the information in the Project Overview section prior to completing this assignment.
For this assignment, you will create a budget for the child development center that you identified.
To begin, determine the priorities of your center and program, and think about how you might allocate funds based on these goals.
Is this a start-up budget (i.e., you are opening a new center), or is this an operating budget (i.e., you are the director of an already established center)?
Then, create a spreadsheet that lists income and expenses.
Finally, write a brief 1-page narrative budget that explains the major components of each category and why they are included.
You should submit an Excel spreadsheet containing your center's budget and a Word doc containing a 1-page narrative budget.
