operating budget
Definition
Detailed projection of all estimated income and expenses based on forecasted sales revenue during a given period (usually one year). It generally consists of several sub-budgets, most important one being the sales budget which is prepared first. Since an operating budget is a short term budget, capital outlays are excluded because they are long-term costs.
