Especially as a company's financial situation will fluctuate over time.

Budget-to-actuals can also help businesses plan, manage and forecast an influx of cash from a loan, grant, or series A. Moreover, proper accounting is likely a requirement for grants or investors.
Utilized correctly, a regular budget variance analysis can provide concrete steps to help a company save money, improve efficiencies, and contribute to business growth.
Don't dread this budget season - be prepared!
