Based on your pay and expenses, your budget can be described as having a deficit of $175.

Deficits occur when expenses are greater than income. The deficit here can be found as :

= Income - Rent - Car payment - Car insurance - Car maintenance - Entertainment - Food - Mobile phone - student loan payment - Other expense

Solving gives:

= 2,500 - 800 - 350 - 150 - 50 - 500 - 250 - 225 - 300

= -$175

In conclusion, the budget has a deficit of $175.
