2 Preparing an Agency Wide Budget Presented by: Daniel Miller Meliora Partners, Inc Budgeting Why do we prepare budgets? Basis for contract applications Allows agency to formalize financial plans Provides comparison for actual results Allows administration and program managers to react Provides Board and our financial partners our vision of the future BUDGETS Who is responsible for budget prep? Program managers Planning committee members Fiscal staff Grant writers Executive directors

3 Budgeting What you need for an effective budget: Method of administrative cost allocation Any cuts or increases in services Programs added or deleted Active programs and their fiscal years Proposed pay changes Payroll fringe costs Facilities Budgeting Common chart of accounts Are revenues detailed enough for all programs? Are expenses defined sufficiently enough for program managers? Non grant revenue and expenses Interest Expense Unused facilities BUDGETS Why can t fiscal just do it? Some of us just aren t that smart! Fiscal staff not familiar with program needs. Great recorders of the past lousy predictors of the future. Gives program people ownership.

4 Creating Your Budget How will you present your budget for approval? Who is your audience? What information do they need? What staff will be present? What support documentation will you need? Will you show a comparison to last year s actual? 7 Problems with Budgeting In spite of every effort, it s an estimate. (Be prepared for variances.) Inconsistencies between grantors regarding budget requirements. If something really big (and unforeseen) happens you will have to re budget Problems with Budgeting Communicating budget changes with grantors: You send it into the black hole You can t get written confirmation Politics changes things

5 Problems with Budgeting Costs that are not part of anyone s budget Non grant items Non allowed costs What is a plan to cover these costs? Fund raising Community partnerships Tax credit projects Agency investments Problems with Budgeting Using an indirect cost rate demands all programs pay. What if grant X doesn t allow indirect costs? Agency Wide Budget Should be part of a strategic plan Can we afford everything we are doing? Are we applying for grant $ just because we need revenue? We might co op our efforts with another local group.

6 Agency Wide Budget Should be part of a strategic plan Who is making the decision about what is applied for? Is anyone adding all these grants up to see if we re OK? Agency Wide Budget Lets look at a completed budget Agency Wide Budget Topics for consideration: The board is considering increasing the retirement benefit to 5%. What do you think? Medicaid has announced a 2% increase in funding levels effective July 1 st, Your tenant s lease is up January 1 st, 2006 and the rent hasn t changed in 3 years.
