The Overhead tab in a Simple Budget allows you to quickly define your total operating costs without managing multiple detailed categories.
1. Forecasted Overhead Costs (Summary Table)
At the top, you’ll see a summary of your overhead:
Forecasted Monthly Cost → total monthly overhead
Forecasted Annual Cost → automatically calculated total for the year
This section updates automatically based on the values entered below, but you can directly enter your numbers.
2. Breakdown Overhead Costs (Optional)
This section lets you input individual overhead expenses as simple line items.
The interface provides default common overhead costs. These items are editable, allowing you to modify, delete, or add new fields.
For each item, enter the forecasted monthly cost. The system will then automatically calculate the annual cost and update the total figures in the summary table above.
3. Equipment Recovered as Overhead
This line is automatically populated from the Equipment tab.
It includes only equipment marked as “Overhead”
The value is calculated based on:
Owned equipment depreciation
Financed equipment recovery method
Leased/rental allocations (if set to overhead)
Note: This value is not manually editable here. It reflects your equipment setup.
