Running an organization without a proper budget (or serving as a manager without insight into your organization's budgeting framework) is an exciting and overwhelming existence. Harnessing the power of a budget gives you the ability to identify challenges and develop strategies on paper to avoid or adapt to those surprises in advance. This course covers the construction of purchase budgets, production budgets, hiring budgets, overhead budgets, and cash budgets.

A sound business budget can help you effectively manage resources as your organization changes and grows. Microsoft Excel is uniquely suited to the task of business budgeting, as it boasts a slew of features that make it easy to create budget models, as well as apply ongoing updates as your business evolves. In this course, Joshua Rischin shows business owners, managers, and their staff how to use Excel to design, create, and maintain robust business budgets. Joshua demonstrates how to use an Excel model to build business budgets in a logical and structured manner, as well as how to forecast income and expenses based on various scenarios. He also shows how to collate inputs from various sources to create structured Excel input sheets, visualize your projected results, prepare summary reports, and more.
