Budget and Planning
A budget is an estimation of revenue and expenses over a specified future period of time and is usually compiled and re-evaluated on a periodic basis. Budgets are an integral part of running any business efficiently and effectively.
Static Vs. Flexible Budgets
There are two major types of budgets: static budgets and flexible budgets. A static budget remains unchanged over the life of the budget. Regardless of changes that occur during the budgeting period, all accounts and figures originally calculated remain the same.
A flexible budget has a relational value to certain variables. The dollar amounts listed on a flexible budget change based on sales levels, production levels, or other external economic factors.
Both types of budgets are useful for management. A static budget evaluates the effectiveness of the original budgeting process, while a flexible budget provides deeper insight into business operations.

There is a saying that “the numbers tell a story”- the numbers produced by your reports will either tell the story of a well-positioned business or an establishment that is going to fail.

The Importance of Budgeting and Cash Flow Analysis Services
Another saying is that “cash is king”- you can assume that the Cash Flow statement of your business monitors and records the very health of your business.
