Home Budgeting Income and Expenses Worksheet in Excel | Budget vs Actual Spending Reports

Home Income and Expense Tracker helps you know how much money you are spending and set a monthly budget to help you stay within your budget.  

Top features of Georges Monthly Budget Spreadsheet v7:

1. New: Dashboard Summary with monthly income and expense totals / charts for an entire calendar year (including a chart with cumulative running totals) and a monthly budget vs actual chart of any category for an entire calendar year to see income and spending trends.

2. New: Twelve separate registers (one for each month of a particular calendar year) where you can enter individual income and expense transactions such as a specific purchase at a grocery store. These individual transactions are then automatically totaled in various reports and charts to get income, expense and category totals. In the monthly registers, you can sort transactions and easily enter a transaction's category from a drop down selection of custom categories that you created (In prior v4, you could only enter category totals not individual transactions/purchases.

3. New: Split Transactions: When entering transactions into one of the individual monthly registers, you can split the transaction into multiple categories. For example, if you went to Walmart and purchased groceries and clothing, when entering that purchase, you can split the total spent into two categories, a portion goes to the groceries category and a portion goes to the clothing category. Splitting a single transaction into more than one income or expense category allows you to better track your actual spending or income.

4. New: Category List and Budget section where you can add/delete your own custom categories, sort them, and add a budget amount for each custom category for each month of a particular calendar year. The budget amount for a particular category can be different for each month of the calendar year.

5. New: In the Category List and Budget section, you can add up to 50 custom income budget categories and up to 200 custom expense budget categories to track your actual vs budgeted income and expenses. (In prior v4, there was a max of 20 income budget categories and max of 120 expense budget categories)

The home budget template (Georges Monthly Budget Spreadsheet v7) includes these separate worksheets in the Excel template:

• 12 month budget template - This worksheet is where you create your custom income and expense categories and set a 12 month budget for each category. For each category you can set a different monthly budget for each of the 12 months of the calendar year. For example, if you pay a particular bill on a quarterly basis, you can set the budget just for the months of January, April, July, October and set the other months at 0.00. You can use the same budget amount for a particular category each month, or if your budget for a particular category changes each month, you can set a different budget for each month of the year. The budget amounts that you set for each of the budget categories will be used to compare budget to actual amounts to help track your progress towards meeting your personal financial plans.
