Income

Income can come from a variety of sources. Paychecks, rental income, investment dividends, child support or alimony for example. To create an accurate budget you must determine all of your income sources.

 
Once you know all sources of income, determine the total for a one year period. Since most expenses are billed on a monthly basis, divide your overall total by 12 for a monthly average income to use in your budget calculations.
