Description
The best means yet found apportioning the income is by means of the family budget. A budget is the theoretical division of the income with the purpose in view of getting the most out of the family income. It is a plan to check undue expenditure in any direction. It gives an incentive to bring the actual expenditures within the limits of the proportions decided upon. The study of the family budget is a study of the ideal, the keeping of accounts is a study of the real. The making of the family budget is an estimate, a prophecy; the keep of accounts is history. The family budget aids in keeping the accounts this year aide in making next year’s budget.
