Revenue and Expenditure Trends and Fund Balances Summary

Need help with my Social Science question – I’m studying for my class.

Write a 1,500- word paper that offers an executive summary of a hypothetical city budget.

*Consider yourself as the city manager as you prepare this document.

*Explain revenue and expenditure trends, fund balances, and what the change in fund balance might mean to future requests for citizen services.

*Provide four charts or graphs to supplement the material.

*This document is meant to provide information to the city council and local citizens about city spending.

*Review the budget revenues and expenditures, including their trends, to gain a more thorough understanding of how future year city services might be affected if these trends continue.

*Explain if there is any citizen involvement with the budget process, any requests for new funding of major projects, and provide an overview of the proposed capital budget (any projects that cost more than $25,000 and have a useful life of more than one year).

Please format the paper according to APA standards.
