Using the Weekly Budget Spreadsheet.
The purpose of this spreadsheet is to help you compare and analyze your projected weekly budget with your actual expenses, but moreover is to establish your savings goal.
To use this spreadsheet, begin with entering the starting balance amount into a blue highlighted cell or leave it blank if you'd prefer not to use a Savings Goal at this time. Fill in the cells in "Budget" column, the amount entered here represents your budget goal that you ideally should achieve by not allowing yourself to overspend. At the end of the week, in the "Actual" column, you record your actual expenses. The "Difference" column automatically calculates the difference and uses accounting format that puts the negative value in parenthesis as well as converts values in red color (meaning bad).
The Month To Date column summarizes all entered data in one easy to read format which clearly displays the difference between your budget and your actual expenses throughout the month. The use of conditional formatting helped to highlight cells containing positive values in green color 
(meaning good) or red 
, where values are negative that stands out as warning when you overspent.
The Weekly Budget Summary table summarizes your weekly income and expenses and calculates NET total as income less expense. The Projected End Balance summarizes the amount from Starting Balance with NET Total, which produces a Starting balance for the following week. In plain English it means that the amount you have ended your week with would be simply taken to the next, whether it is negative or a positive balance.
Adding additional rows into categories. There are at least two ways in which you can add extra rows into categories, first is to copy an entire row and then insert the copied row right above the row that you've copied from, but you'll need to make sure that formula which calculates total includes your newly added row. Check our support page to find out about how to add a single or multiple rows.
