Financial Budgets
The usual financial budgets prepared are:
cash budget
budgeted balance sheet
budget for capital expenditures
The basic structure of a cash budget includes cash receipts,
disbursements, any excess or deficiency of cash, and financing
as shown below:
Cash available consists of the beginning cash balance and the expected cash
receipts. Expected cash receipts include all sources of cash for the period
being considered.
Financial Budgets
Financial Budgets
The cash disbursements section lists all planned cash outlays for the
period.
All expenses that do not require a cash outlay are excluded from the
list (e.g., depreciation is never included in the disbursements section).
Financial Budgets
Some companies expand the basic cash budget format
by adding lines to show any borrowing or repayment
necessary to achieve a minimum desired cash
amount.
When this is done, the preliminary ending cash
balance is called cash excess or deficiency.
Borrowings and Repayments: If a company converts its
preliminary cash balance line to a cash excess (deficiency) line,
it may be borrowing or repaying money. If there is a deficiency,
this section shows the necessary amount to be borrowed. When
excess cash is available, this section shows planned
repayments, including interest expense.
Ending Cash Balance: The last line of the
cash budget is the ending cash balance.
