QUESTION 8

What is your budgeting process like?

A.	I use adaptive rolling budgets that integrate with my accounting software and make it very easy to generate reasonably accurate projections of revenues, expenses, and cash flows. This system helps to contain costs so that my company remains consistently competitive and profitable.
B.	I do an annual operating budget using a spreadsheet, but I find myself guessing at a lot of the numbers. The entire exercise takes way too much time and/or doesn’t seem to do much good.
C.	When I need to make a business decision I just do some quick research or guess at the pertinent numbers and then jot them down.
D.	I don’t usually prepare budgets.
