Processes of budgeting plan.
Taking control of your financial future might seem like an intimidating process if you’ve never done it before. Creating your first budget can also be a daunting task if you’ve never lived on one and aren’t sure what information to include. Unlike smaller budgets for special savings goals, a master budget puts all of your dollars and dreams into one document. To get the process started, get off the couch, gather last year’s financial records and start creating your budget document.
Gather Your Information
To effectively create a master budget, you’ll need to understand your financial situation. To determine this, gather all of your financial records from last year, including your tax return, bank and credit card statements, checkbook, online or brokerage trading statements and any other documents that will help you see what you brought in and spent last year. This will help you set spending and savings goals for the foreseeable future.
Create Your Document
Once you have your financial information, it’s time to build your budget document. Using a simple spreadsheet program, enter your income and expense categories down the left-hand side of the page. List all income sources, including your pay, gifts and money from any garage sales or part-time job you might take. If you plan on leaving stock market gains in your account, don’t include that in your master budget. List your expenses in two sections: fixed and variable. Fixed expenses include bills such as rent, car payments and insurance, while variable expenses change each month, such as your electric bill. Across the top of the page, create columns for recording income and expense each month. After your December column, add “Total,” “Average Monthly,” “Budgeted Monthly” and “Projected Yearly” columns. At the bottom of each month, include lines for your total monthly income and expenses, and one to calculate your net income or loss.
Breakout Information
To get the most of your master budget, create a variety of breakout reports when you build your document. Use your “Total” column to learn what your average spending or income is each month. Divide that column by the number of months that have passed to get your entries for the “Average Monthly” column. This will let you compare what you are spending and saving to your “Budgeted Monthly” targets. Multiply the “Average Monthly” totals by to get your “Projected Yearly” projection.
Tweaking
Once you have completed the first step in the master budgeting process, it’s time to use your document to plan your goals. Enter your projections in your “Budgeted Monthly” column to see if you will have enough money to pay your bills or save for specific goals. If you find you have excess cash, create savings categories and put them in your variable expenses section. For example, if you want to save $1, per month for your retirement fund, include that contribution as an expense in your budget. Other savings goals might include college tuition for your children, a mortgage down payment or a vacation. If your budget projections put you in the red each month, or living too close to the edge, start reducing the numbers in your variable expenses, such as dining out or entertainment.

The Master or final budget is a summary budget, which incorporates all functional budgets in a capsule form. It sets out the plan of operations for all departments in considerable detail for the budget period. The budget may take the form of a Profit and Loss Account and a Balance Sheet as at the end of the budget period. The Master budget requires the approval of the Budget Committee before it is put into operation. It may happen, sometimes, that a number of master budgets have to be prepared before the final one is agreed upon. The budget generally contains details regarding sales (net), production costs, cash position, and key account balances (e.g. debtors, fixed assets, bills payable, etc.). It also shows the gross and net profits and the important accounting ratios. The budgeting process requires essentially six steps: 1. Setting goals 2. Gathering data 3. Forecast future needs 4. Implementing the budget 5. Controlling
6. Evaluating performance.

Master Budget Definition
The master budget is the aggregation of all lower-level budgets produced by a company's various functional areas, and also includes budgeted financial statements, a cash forecast, and a financing plan. The master budget is typically presented in either a monthly or quarterly format, and usually covers a company's entire fiscal year. An explanatory text may be included with the master budget, which explains the company's strategic direction, how the master budget will assist in accomplishing specific goals, and the management actions needed to achieve the budget. There may also be a discussion of the headcount changes that are required to achieve the budget.
A master budget is the central planning tool that a management team uses to direct the activities of a corporation, as well as to judge the performance of its various responsibility centers. It is customary for the senior management team to review a number of iterations of the master budget and incorporate modifications until it arrives at a budget that allocates funds to achieve the desired results. Hopefully, a company uses participative budgeting to arrive at this final budget, but it may also be imposed on the organization by senior management, with little input from other employees.
The budgets that roll up into the master budget include:
The selling and administrative expense budget may be further subdivided into budgets for individual departments, such as the accounting, engineering, facilities, and marketing departments.
Once the master budget has been finalized, the accounting staff may enter it into the company's accounting software, so that the software can issue financial reports comparing budgeted and actual results.
Smaller organizations usually construct their master budgets using electronic spreadsheets. However, spreadsheets may contain formula errors, and also have a difficult time constructing a budgeted balance sheet. Larger organizations use budget-specific software, which does not have these two problems.
