Our Review: Budget Tool Business Excel is a spreadsheet with built-in macros - the aim of which is to aid you in creating a 5 year budget. Unfortunately there isn't much flexibility here at all - any changes you make have to be within the structure that Budget Tool has predetermined. Essentially all you can do with this program is specify your monthly incomings/outgoings and have it generate a pretty graph for you. Very useful if you are still a novice to Excel - but if you have any confidence with creating your own formulae then I would treat this more as a tutorial than a tool.
