In this practical and down-to-earth book, Robert Simerly presents a step-by-step guide to strategic financial management for conferences, workshops, and meetings in a wide variety of settings.
The author simplifes complex accounting and financial management principles and makes them understandable and easy to apply. Simerly covers all aspects of fiscal responsibility, including how to plan a budget for an individual program, integrate individual programs into a comprehensive yearly budget, and develop a five-year financial planning model. He outlines a basic five-step procedure--applicable to any program no matter how large or small--for creating a budget for a single program. And the author outlines how to set in place an accrual accounting system, using actual budgets as easy-to-follow case examples.
