The term “budget”
A budget is a detailed analysis of all your income and planned expenses for a specific
period of time.
Reasons why consumers should budget@IMPAQ JUN 2022 & 2020
A budget allows you to:
→ to see exactly how much money you have available
→ to stay in control of your money
→ decide how much money you can spend on different things
→ prevent impulsive spending
→ to keep records of spending
→ create a savings plan that protects you against unexpected expenses
→ achieve a financial goal by saving
→ to pay off debt
→ living within your means by spending less than you earn.
