Budgets: You may choose to answer option A, B, or C; please indicate your choice in the subject line.

It is important that you take a position in your answer, do not agree or re-post information from another student. Each post needs to be unique, similar posts do not warrant full credit. Always include your sources. I am not asking for opinions.

Option A: Conduct a web search using the word "Budgeting". You should find a variety of websites with information in preparing a personal budget. Please provide YOUR plan to develop a personal budget.

Option B: Roo Manufacturing has hired a new controller, Dan Elfman. During his first week on the new job, Dan was asked to establish a budget for operating expenses in 2016. Since Dan was not yet familiar with the operations of Roo Mfg., he decided to use the prior year's expenses as a benchmark for the next year's budget. Dan then added 4.3% to the expenses; this percentage was based off inflation as measured by the consumer price index. Comment on the effectiveness of Dan's budgeting strategy.

Option C: Conduct a web search for the topic 'saving for your retirement'. Similar to budgeting, you should find a variety of websites with information concerning how to save for retirement. Please provide three strategies to develop YOUR plan for retirement.
