1) Cash Budgets: Under this budget, we calculate the estimated availability of cash for every month.
The proforma for the cash budget is as follows:
1) Opening Balance
Add: Receipts - Money received as cash sales, collection from debtors, sale of assets, dividend received, other inco
Less: Payments - Amount paid for cash purchases, payment to suppliers, expenses paid, purchase of assets etc.
Closing Balance - Closing Balance is considered as the opening balance for the next month.

Flexible budgets are prepared to find out the cost incurred at different activity levels.
In this case, the costs are classified into Variable Costs and Fixed Costs.
The main purpose of preparing flexible budgets is to identify the increase in costs if the production activity increases
