Discuss how a business will show the findings of the


projected budget versus the actual budget and how this
might be presented.
The projected budget of the business is the forecasted estimated cost that is supposed to be spent
on the project. Meanwhile, the actual budget is the real-time amount paid by the company on a
project. The estimated budget is not sure to fulfill the need of the project. Either the estimated
budget is overestimated, or the budget is underestimated. External factors like price hike, cost
fluctuation, change in project span, etc. can make a difference in the actual funding and
estimated budget.

The difference in the projected budget and actual budget can be shown after the completion of
the project. The chart or statement can be prepared with the detail inclusion of estimated budget
