Hi,
I would be really grateful if any one could help me. I need to perform a draft budget for a new job and they have requested a draft budget.. unfortunately never done one before... can anyone assist on how I can attack this? I would be really grateful! I just would like to know where to start not how to do it. Thank you, Rachel

A budget is simply a plan of expenditures. It sets how much can be spent on various items, like rent, staff, supplies, etc.

Hi, Rachel,
Here is a link to a Draft Budget:

Maybe you can use it to see how to set up a table, with names, headings, etc, for doing one. If this is for a new job, can you look at any of the old Draft Budgets that might have been done in the past where you work?
They would give you a good idea of what is contained in them, and how they are set up.
I do wish you the best, and good luck.
