For this week’s assignment, write a case analysis on budgetary policies and procedures of your current or previous department at work. Ideally, this would be the same department in which you have been examining in previous assignments. Begin this assignment by preparing a Least-Squares Graph in Excel for your chosen organization.
Be certain to include the following information in your written analysis:
Prepare micro and macro trend-lines of revenue and expenditure for the last 3 fiscal years.
Determine limitations on the budgetary process caused by political, social, or economic factors. Compare and contrast these findings.
Explain the importance of planning based on the Least Square Trend-lines you have produced.
Summarize and assess the development process of the budget reports to identify any issues. Then, pose solutions to any issues you have found.
Also, include a visual template for a Least Square Trend-line to project revenue and expenditure.
Support your case study with a minimum of three scholarly sources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles, may be included.
Length: 5-pages and visual template, but not including title and reference pages
