Budgetary deficit 150,000

Revenue (4,600,000)

Expenditures 4,550,000

Fund balance-assigned* (350,000)

Fund balance-unassigned (400,000)

      Items                             Less                              Calculated funds

Cash in bank                           -                                     $100,000

Estimated revenue                  -                                    $5,000,000

Budgetary deficit                $150,000                                  -

Revenue                                 -                                      $4,600,000

Expenditures                      $4,550,000                              -

Total:                                    $5,050,000                      $10,600,000

Available fun can be calculated as;

Available Funds  = Calculated funds -less

                            = 10,600,000 - 5,050,000

                            =$5,550,000
