SPENDING AUDIT OR TRACKING – pick one option


Tracking the money you have coming in and the money you have going out is important. Doing this
over a set period of time:
 Gives you great data that informs your future budget
 Helps you see what your potential budget categories should be
 Provides you with realistic estimates for categories that fluctuate week-to-week (such as “food”,
“transport”, “gas”, “entertainment”, etc.)
 Brings you awareness of your spending habits, helping you make decisions on where to cut back
to optimize your budget

In this section, you will pick one of two options and complete the corresponding activity.

 Option 1 – for those who have good records on spending over the past month
(bank & credit card statements)

 Option 2 – for those who do not have good records of spending over the past
month.

Option 1 – for those who have good records on spending over the past month (bank &
credit card statements)
Let’s get to auditing! Get out any and all of your bank/credit card statements, and select a time period
over which your statements cover that is at least 1 month.

In the space below, explain what statements you will use in performing this audit (you do not need to
give specifics – for example, one might say: I use my credit card and debit card for specific expenses, I
will use both to perform my audit).

I use my income and debit card for fixed expenses and credit card for food cravings

Then, for which dates will you account for: (enter date range here, 30-31 days)

Now, go through each expense, and complete the following chart. Add/delete rows and customize as it
makes sense for you. You will want to account for every dollar coming in (income) and every dollar
going out (expense).

Notes:
 If you prefer to use an Excel sheet or hand write your expenses, delete the table below and copy
and paste a screenshot of your Excel sheet or a picture of your handwritten tracking here.
 If there is an expense or income you do not want to disclose, feel free to block it out on your
submission, retaining the details for your own records only.
Date Item/Category Amount Varied Want or Need Notes
3/2/2024 Rent 481.89 Need
3/2/2024 Utlities 41.23 Need
3/2/2024 Electricity 50.01 Need

19/2/2024 Laundry 3.50 Need
20/2/2024 Groceries 10.09 Need

Did you spend more or less money than you had coming in?
 If more, why do you think that is and is there anything you can do different moving forward?
 If less, what would you like to do with the unspent funds?

Less, I am saving up the income for future use

In looking at your results, what habits can you identify that you have surrounding your money?
 Which of these habits, if any, align well with your financial goals?
 Which of these habits, if any, do not align well with your financial goals?

I have a money saving habit, and it aligns well with my financial goal

Do you believe this month’s audit gives you an accurate picture of your cashflow (money coming in and
going out); why or why not?
Yes, it helps me why I am having those numbers in my bank account right now

What are your tracking and audit plans moving forward? Outline steps you will take to make this
happen.

I will continue to audit my budget using excel sheet

Option 2 – for those who do not have good records of spending over the past month.
Let’s get to tracking! You have to start somewhere, so let’s get set up. In this section, you will create a
tracking plan that covers one month of time, starting today. During this, you will track every dollar
coming in (income) and every dollar going out (expenses).

State Your Timeframe


First, for which dates will be creating this tracking plan?

Choose a Tracking Tool


There are many online and mobile tools that help consumers track their spending and assist in creating
a budget based off consumers’ past financial habits and future goals.

By setting up an account with a tracking tool, your transactions throughout the term will be tracked,
and you’ll be able to use this information to check the accuracy of the budget you create. If you haven’t
been tracking your expenses before you put numbers into your budget, chances are you’ll be off in a
few areas. But not to worry – that’s why we constantly evaluate our budget and our spending, and
adjust as needed.

1. Review the following list of tracking tools. Note that some of the tools are dual purpose in that they
track expenses AND budget. In Step 2 of this assignment, you will choose a template to set up your
budget. One option you have is to do it all through your tracking tool if you pick one that allows it.

Top Apps for Tracking your Finances:


o Online banking apps

Many financial institutions offer some form of online mobile banking apps or services.
Using these tools that your bank provides is a great way to track expenditures you make
with your debit and/or credit cards. These apps offer a wide variety of budgeting and
tracking tools, based on your financial institution. Check out your financial institution’s
website to see what options they provide.
o Good Budget: https://goodbudget.com/

“Good Budget” is free and offers a very simple user interface. This app offers an “old
school” approach to saving money and allows you to divvy up your money in a wide
variety of categories. This app is a wonderful introduction into the basics of budgeting
and allows you to enter expenses as you go.
o HomeBudget: http://www.anishu.com/

“HomeBudget” is a super simple, easy-to-use system for budgeting and tracking


expenditures on your mobile device. The app is a reasonable $4.99 and offers receipt
photographing and color coding for all your accounts and expenditures. It also gives you
the ability to look at the long-term as well as the short-term.
o Pocketsmith: https://www.pocketsmith.com/

“Pocketsmith” is a great app for the analytical budgeter. It allows you to thoroughly

understand your cash flow by allowing you to input your financial data and track what
you spend. It presents the data to you in a wide variety of graphs.
o Personal Capital: https://www.personalcapital.com/

“Personal Capital” is great and useful tool for planning for the long run. It allows you to
track your 401K’s and see your net worth. This app has a very easy to use interface;
however, it does cost money to use.
o Excel: https://products.office.com/en-us/excel

Excel is the most basic financial planning tracking and budgeting tool on the market. The
only cost with using Excel or similar spreadsheet software is the starting cost of
purchasing the software. Using Excel means that you will need to enter everything in to
your spreadsheets manually and create different sheets based on your budgets and what
graphs you want to have presented to you.
o Other: If there are other tracking/budgeting applications that you are curious about, take
this opportunity to explore them! There are so many products and options out there, it is a
matter of finding the one that resonates with you. Here are some recommendations from
Investopedia, the balance and Nerd Wallet. In addition, you could use CAFE’s Tracking
word document.

Choose two tools from the above list (or other tools you have heard of) to explore in more depth.
Write a brief (100-150 words each) synopsis of each of the two tracking tools you chose, including
the strengths and weaknesses of each tool.
Financial Tracking
Brief Synopsis of Tool – (100 to 150)
Tool
1) Chase banking Overview – It is a banking app that also provides feature to track
app spending

Strengths – Can calculate my spending based on the transactions I


made

Weaknesses – Cannot track transactions I made using other sources


like credit cards
2) Excel sheet Overview – A general spreadsheet useful for many purposes

2. Based on your synopsis and review of the strengths and weaknesses of each tool, pick one of the
two to track your finances for the month-long period. What online, paper, or mobile tracking tool
did you pick? Explain your anticipated approach to tracking using the tool(s).
I pick excel sheet because, although it is time consuming, it helps me confront my payments an
understand my expenses

Instructions for Setting Up Your Tracking Tool


By setting up an account with your tracking tool now (if applicable), your transactions throughout the month
will be tracked, and you’ll be able to use this information to inform your personal budget.
1. Create an account with the tracking tool of your choice (if applicable).
2. Once set up and linked with your accounts, most online tracking tools will automatically import all your
transactions from your banks’ websites and allow you to compare your actual spending against your
budget in real time. See your chosen tool’s website for set-up information, and follow the steps outlined.
 Setting up your tool(s) is going to be reflective of how you have decided to track; so – do this in a
way that works for you.

To receive credit for this portion of the assignment, copy and paste a screenshot of your confirmation/welcome
email from the tracking tool below. If you do not receive a confirmation/welcome email, please submit a screenshot
of your home screen on the tracking tool. If you did not set-up a tool, take a screenshot of your Excel spreadsheet or
other document of choice so we know you are getting it started! Be sure to block out any personal information
that you do not wish the TAs or Instructors to see .

FINANCIAL GOALS & SUPPORTIVE HABITS


Budgeting is a plan for your income and expenses for a set time period. If you create a budget that
aligns with your values and goals and create habits that support these goals, you align the way you
spend your time and energy – this can be extremely powerful in helping you design the life you want to
live.

A budget is a plan and plans change, that is normal! As life unfolds, you can come back to your budget –
your plan – and adjust. With time, you will see how much a budget can benefit you.

Design the Life You Want to Live


A good starting point is to make time to reflect about the type of life you want for yourself. Be as
specific as possible! You don’t have to have it all figured out today...you can come back to this life
design as needed. Think about your future and take some time to free-write, answering questions such
as:
 Where are you living?
 What does your lifestyle involve?
 Who is around you?
 What hobbies are you dedicating your time to?
 What material things do you own?
 What successes have you had?
 What’s important to you?
 …?
I am living in Corvallis, a considerably cheaper town to live in. I like staying indoors so I
don’t have much of a extrovert lifestyle. I like watching dramas, reading Korean web
novels and comics. I often read non-fiction books as well. My bed, clothes, laptop a few
other necessary things I need for my stay here. I am successful at my academics and
putting my heart in whatever job I do. My mom and sister are the only ones important to
me and their happiness is most important to me.
Consider this life design as you work towards a budget – there may be decisions or things you could be
paying off, saving for, working towards, etc. now that will set you up well for the life you want to live.

FINANCIAL GOALS

Financial Goal Setting & Personal Budgeting
A financial goal is a specific objective that is accomplished by planning and managing your finances. Often there
are specific long-, intermediate-, and short-term goals to be attained through your money management efforts.
These goals should be consistent with your values and have the potential to help you create the life you want to
live. You want to take time and make your goals specific, measurable, ensure they are attainable and relevant,
and time-bound; these are called SMART goals. It is not enough to say, “I want to grow my savings.” Instead, ask
yourself: by how much? By when? Is it attainable and realistic? Your goal might be - “I plan to grow my savings to
$500 in one year from today by setting aside $41 each month, automatically taking it from my checking to my
savings account.”

Short-term: What’s one financial goal you want to complete over the next year? Be sure to make it a SMART
goal:

Specific Save up for post-graduation job searching period, if I don’t secure a job
Measurable Should be enough for 6-month expenses
Attainable I can achieve it by saving a portion every month
Relevant I need this so as to not to burden my family back home
Time-bound I am only doing this until I get a job

Answer the following questions about your short-term goal:

How does your goal To make sure that I am not burdening my family back home
motivate you?
What problems do you Nothing at the moment, as saving up is quite important for me
anticipate having if you
focus solely on the
overarching goal?

Relevant I need to pay off debt asap so it doesn’t grow
Time-bound I aim to achieve it from 3-4 years after I got a job

Answer the following questions about your intermediate-term goal:

How does your goal To be clear of debt motivates me


motivate you?
What problems do you Nothing, I will be free from interest apyments
anticipate having if you

overarching goal?

Long-term: What’s one financial goal you want to complete within 5+ years?
Be sure to make it a SMART goal:

Specific Help me sister for her studies, buy a house for my mom
Measurable It will probably take 600,000 or more
Attainable It is attainable, but in long term
Relevant My family’s happiness is important to me
Time-bound A very long-term goal

Answer the following question about your long-term goal:

How does your goal The thought to be able to give back to my family and make them happy
motivate you?
What problems do you Nothing, I need to work harder
anticipate having if you
focus solely on the
overarching goal?

In this week’s lecture, we looked at the differences between setting goals and establishing systems to help us
reach those goals (essentially, developing good habits). Use the Psychology Today Article on Habit Formation
and information from lecture to inform your answers within this section.

Thinking about your short-term goal (from above), what systems do you need in place to help you reach
your goal (i.e. what habits do you need to create)?

I am pretty systematic for now, but if possible I want to curb all my food cravings and stop ordering food
from outside

Select 2 components of the system (habits) from your list above, and consider how you can realistically
incorporate those into your daily life. Remember the tips from lecture on how to create good habits
(start small, stack your habits, align your environment, and plan for failure) and incorporate them as
appropriate.

Values are fundamental beliefs about what you find to be important, desirable, and worthwhile; it’s
what you believe in! They motivate us and shape us; they serve as a basis for our goals and life design.
Values change over time, taking time to reflect on what is important to you during various points of
your life will help you decide what your priorities should be. This awareness can help you as you create
plans for your time and money. Read this Clever Girl Finance article about values and do additional
reflection/research as needed.
Then, list three of your values that guide you the most in your finances right now. For each, explain
how this value connects to how you manage your money.
Value How Value Relates to Your Money Management
1. Reflect in beliefs I mostly spend according to my money beliefs- avoid unnecessary
2. Outline Financial I have outlined all my financial goals – long term and short term
Goals
3. Priorities I have my priorities set right

CHOOSE TIMEFRAME FOR BUDGET


Part of budgeting is budgeting for a specific time period. Some choose bi-weekly budgets, considering
they get paid on that schedule. Others choose to do a budget for a complete term, especially those who
are living on-campus. Some like to do a weekly budget as income can be inconsistent. Others have most
of their bills set up on a monthly cycle and get paid monthly, so they choose to have a budget for each
month. What will your budget timeframe be and why? Explain in the box below.
I do my budget monthly as that is when I get paid and also when I have to pay my bills

PROJECT INCOME & EXPENSES


It’s time to work on your budget for the timeframe you have selected!

You’ve done some great work leading up to this activity. You reflected on what you want out of life,
explained your values, set some financial goals, and identified habits to support the goals. You have
thought through a timeframe and your budgeting method and tools.

So, why develop a budget? As you get older, often your financial needs and wants become more
complex. Large purchases such as a car, college degree, or a house cannot be made spontaneously for
many of us. Checking in on your budget helps you track your spending and helps you to ensure you are
living within your means. Overall, a budget provides you a plan so you can attain your goals. At the core
of a budget is the equation: Income – Expenses = Surplus (or living within your means, your goal)
or Shortfall (or living outside of your means). When creating a budget, you will list out your
anticipated income (money coming in) for that time period, or a starting balance of funds and expenses
(money going out). Then, you deduct your expenses from your income with the goal of having enough
income to cover all your expenses, living within your means. If not, you at can identify the issue and
make a plan to improve your situation.

In your budget, you could include the following categories (feel free to label and organize how you see
fit) – remember, let this budget reflect you and your life. It might seem like a small detail, but the
organization of your budget matters – you want it to be something that works for you. Consider
categories for your expenses such as “Entertainment” and you define what it includes, or “Housing” and
perhaps you include things like rent/mortgage, utilities, maintenance, etc. So, do a little research on
budgeting categories as needed. If you do not have a lot of budgeting categories, that is a-ok – practice
with what you do spend your money on. These habits will shape your future as your finances become
more complex.

Note: If you are totally financially dependent on someone else, that is great! You will count their support
as your income. If you already have a budget, then make some adjustments as needed and this section
should be easy for you!

When you look at your anticipated expenses and income from your budget above (Income – Expenses),
will you have more money coming in (income) than going out (expenses)?

My tuition and fee are paid out using my loan so there is no way for me to track that expense. However
as for my monthly income less expense, I see more money coming in

If you have more money coming in than going out, you are living within your means which is where you
want to be. If that is the case for you, what could you do with any extra money you have? If you have
less money coming in than going out, you are living outside of your means which is great to know as
you can make some plans to improve this. If this is the case for you, what are some expenses you will
look at lowering? And/or, what are some ways you might increase your income? Both lectures gave
you some ideas for this, so refer to those if/as needed for some ideas.

I am currently saving up my extra money, when possible I want to start a RothIRA account

In what ways does your budget reflect your goals, positive habits, and values? Be specific for each in
the space below.

My budget reflects my discipline and principle of living below ones means

What will your overall strategy be for managing, checking-in on, and updating /adjusting your budget and
tracking through the timeframe of the budget created?
I will update my spreadsheet bi-monthly as I earn and pay my bills and make purchases

What challenges do you anticipate in budgeting and tracking? For each challenge, what is something you can do
to avoid the issue or mitigate it?
It can be time consuming, which can lead me to procrastinate it – however seeing positive numbers in my
savings motivates me to work on it
