Full Description
Workbook for Budgeting is a practical, down to earth text paired with hands-on exercises that focuses on quick assimilation of basic budgeting concepts, knowledge building, and real budgeting skills. Written at the upper-level undergraduate or graduate level, the text does not assume knowledge of budgeting but pairs brief foundational readings with hands-on exercises so that students can leave the class with actual budgeting skills. Without jargon and long-winded explanations, Workbook for Budgeting provides the instructor with materials that supplements the instructor's knowledge base and eases class preparation.
The text explains the five steps of the budget cycle with exercises for each step and focuses primarily on the state and local government level, where most students will work. Topics include budget preparation, the fiscal year, human resource costs, program budgeting, legislative budgeting and the special case of the U.S. Congress, funds, cash management, privatization, and capital projects. Readings and exercises are not only focused on math and numbers but mirror real life conditions that show students how real people make budgets that support policy and solve problems in America. Students will see that they, too, can learn budgeting without the typical hesitation of the usual numbers-type class. They will enjoy the journey.
