Budgets cannot be meaningfully formulated until there is an accurate forecast of how much revenue the government can expect to generate. It is important that the forecast be honest and accurate. Students will use financial forecasting techniques including trend analysis to calculate trend lines for revenue streams and test them for accuracy. This is especially important for ongoing mandatory programs.
