Report Content – In your report, you will describe each of the six components of the \u201c9<\/p>\n

Things\u201d Financial Planning Process (FPP) and include specific personal examples for<\/div>\n
each component. (FFP on page 2.)<\/div>\n
In the course \u201cBudgeting\u201d discussion you selected the budgeting method (envelopes,<\/div>\n
calendar, spreadsheet, or app) that you thought would work best for you. Briefly restate<\/div>\n
which budgeting method you selected and why.<\/div>\n
\u2022 Research \u2013 Next, research and compare three specific budgeting tools in greater<\/div>\n
detail for your chosen budgeting method. For example, if you selected the spreadsheet<\/div>\n
method, research 3 different specific types of budgeting spreadsheets. Use the SIFT:<\/div>\n
Source Analysis method to be sure you are using reputable sources in your report<\/div>\n
(included in this assignment).<\/div>\n
\u2022 Evaluate \u2013 Describe and compare at least 3 key features of each budgeting tool, such<\/div>\n
as the pros and cons, price, features, and any limitations discovered. Elaborate on your<\/div>\n
research through a detailed discussion of relevant facts and\/or expert opinions<\/div>\n
about the products\/features (not user reviews). Be sure to cite your work where<\/div>\n
appropriate.<\/div>\n
\u2022 Apply \u2013 Select the one specific tool or product based on your evaluation and<\/div>\n
explanation why this will best meet your personal needs.<\/div>\n
Next, you will create a realistic personal budget (weekly, bi-weekly, by paycheck,<\/div>\n
monthly, or by semester) using the tool or product you\u2019ve selected. For example, if you chose<\/div>\n
the app method, download the app you selected and create your realistic personal budget in<\/div>\n
the app. Be sure your budget includes your actual or estimated income and expenses (note<\/div>\n
financial aid, scholarships, and loans refunded to you may be listed as income if you use that<\/div>\n
money to pay any of your expenses as well as parental allowance or money received from<\/div>\n
others). Do NOT include your tuition, fees, or books in this budgeting assignment. Include<\/div>\n
your expenses (bills) such as housing, transportation, cell phone, etc. If your personal budget<\/div>\n
includes only discretionary expenses, then budget for at least 5 expense categories in your<\/div>\n
actual budget.<\/div>\n
