Assignment:

Read the scenario, then fill out the budget template.

In order to extend the employment readiness program to young people with mental health issues, you will need to secure funding. I need your guidance on creating a budget for the program. The budget that I need to create is an income against expenditure budget for twelve months that the program will initially run for.

The premises (rent) and reception costs are already taken care and do not need to be included in the budget.

After a discussion with the organisation's accountant, you have estimated what is required to run the program for twelve months. The requirements are as follows:

• Two full-time youth support workers - salary 70K each
• Two full-time mental health support workers - salary 70K each
• Accommodation allowance of $750 for each support worker (4) to attend professional association conferences, workshops, etc.
• Travel allowance of $500 for each support worker (4) to cover costs to conferences and visiting other organisations.
• Infrastructure (gas, electricity, phone, incidentals) $300 per quarter (3 months)
• Resources (computers, monitors, furniture etc) $1300 per support worker (4)

the organisation has secured a non-government grant of $10,000 and donations totalling $25,000. the organisation doesn't charge any fees.

Instructions

With the information above, complete the budget. Your organisation will apply for a government grant. Calculate the expenditure first and fill out the total expenditure. Then calculate income. The total of the government grant is determined by how much you need to make total income equal total expenditure. The government grant total would be the last figure calculated based on all other budget calculations.
