Money Management and Personal Finance Class Week Three Special Exercise

Class Three Exercise Fictional Family Budget

In this Class Session, we have been discussing the importance of goal setting and budgeting. We have considered the essential elements of budgeting for short-term and long-term goals.

This Assignment is to imagine a fictional family (or your own, if you desire). Set up a budget sheet for this family showing income and expenses for this family in a given year.

This does not have to be extremely detailed (in fact, make it fit on one page). It is intended merely as an exercise in seeing that a family only has a limited amount of income and needs to carefully plan its distribution and management.

The goal of the handling of the income is to cover all short and long-term expenses with an eye toward growth of financial standing (investments, savings, etc.).

You may do this Assignment in MS Word, Apple Pages, InDesign, MS Excel or Adobe Acrobat.

Once completed, please submit it at the appropriate link in the Course.
