WORKSHEET Instructions

 

This worksheet is an introduction to budgeting.  To create a budget you need to understand both your income and your expenses.  Here, fixed and variable expenses are explained and practiced.

 

A first step to understanding budgeting is to understand your expenses.  There are two main types of expenses, fixed expenses and variable expenses.  Fixed expenses tend to be about the same each month, for example rent.  Variable expenses tend to fluctuate each month, such as clothing.

 

Explain to student that each month, they may receive income from the job they have, and interest from the money they save.  Also each month they will have expenses. 

 

Students should read the introductory text on the worksheet, and fill in the "fixed" and "Variable" expense columns.
