Section 1 : Project costs.[40
hours]
10. Annual expenses (budgets
per year). (At least 2 hours )
In part
09. The budget in the
form indicated by donors of this section, the typical budget of an integrated
development project is usually divided per year of execution into :
Budget for the first executive year.
Budget for the second executive year.
A longer execution period
may be preferred. In that case there would be another sheet for the third year
and, if applicable, for the fourth year and so on.
This form of budgeting is due to
the budgetary requirements often imposed
on financing agencies. They have to be able to divide their obligations
by calendar years. This form of division is not natural to integrated
development projects. The planned social, financial, productive and service
structures take form each at its own rhythm. This can vary from project to
project, from well-commission to commission, and from tank-commission to
tank-commission.
Donors may also require item
by item hypotheses showing the various
phases of execution. These hypotheses are based on the annual activity plans at points 05.03
Activity plan and 06.01
Annual activity plan of the Model. (Section 05.03 and 6.01 both use the
same document.)
However, for the reasons given above, the activity plan itself is the product of subjective ypothrses.
The
annual activity plans are shown in graphic form in:
Graph
showing first-year activities.
Graph
showing second year activities.
The graphs were developed on the basis of
the Excel file for the budget in file
07.13 Excel spreadsheets for budget preparation (technical
document).
First-year activities (Column C)
Second-year ctivities (Column D)
Since the purpose of these
documents is to help donors with annual budgeting, separate graphs have not
been prepared for inividual budget groups on an annual basis. This information
can, however, be rapidly produced should it ever be required. Quarterly graphs
sub-divided into item groups are available. They can be broken down to produce
monthly graphs as required.
1. Research.
For each of the proejcts selected during your work for part 09.
Budget in the form requested by donor prepare an Excel file like the one for first year activities and second-year ctivities with one column for the item by item amounts
for each year. Then make a graph for each year for each project.
