 Zero-Based Budgeting: Making Every Dollar Count<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Zero-Based Budgeting Definition<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zero-Based Budgeting (ZBB)<\/strong>: A budgeting method where all expenses must be justified for each new period, starting from a “zero base,” with no balances carried forward and no pre-assumed continuation for any budget item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Zero-Based Budgeting?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Zero-based budgeting<\/a> is a method of budgeting where every expense in an organization, or your personal budget, must be justified for each new period. Unlike traditional budgeting<\/a>, which often modifies existing budgets based on previous years, ZBB starts from zero and adds expenses that are all justified, whether they are new or continuing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
