Payment timing

Each dated category is treated as one planned payment. Undated costs remain unscheduled.

Entered costs by planned payment month

Media is only part of the budget.

The example includes $15,000 media, $2,500 production, $1,500 management, $500 labor, $150 tools and $750 landing-page work. Entered costs total $20,400. A 10% reserve adds $2,040, giving $22,440 planned funding.

The method

Entered costs = sum of all cost categories Contingency = entered costs × reserve percentage, rounded to cents Planned funding = entered costs + contingency

Payment timing groups entered amounts by the month of the date you supply. It does not schedule a payment or connect to an account. The contingency stays separate and unscheduled.

Check the scope before spending.

  • Use a consistent currency; this tool does not convert currencies.
  • Include taxes, fees and supplier costs in the relevant category or Other. Avoid counting a fee twice.
  • Each category has one payment date. Split deposits, recurring charges and milestone payments need a separate detailed schedule.
  • Dates are planning assumptions, not accounting recognition or evidence that money has been paid.
  • Zero entered costs produce a zero budget. A reserve cannot establish that all risks have been covered.
