Budgetline — Personal Finance Workbook

Designed for personal finance projects, this workbook separates raw entry from reporting. You maintain the input sheet, and the derived views recalculate from it rather than needing to be updated by hand.

The structure is intentionally plain: named ranges and readable formulas rather than macros, so the file opens and behaves the same in Excel, Google Sheets and LibreOffice.

• Owners and managers who track personal finance projects in a spreadsheet rather than dedicated software
• Bookkeepers and analysts who need an auditable file rather than a black box
• Small teams standardising on one shared format
• Anyone replacing an inherited spreadsheet that has grown unmanageable

• Monthly budget worksheet
• Debt paydown tracker
• Savings goal tracker page
• Print-ready A4 & Letter sizes
• Single data-entry sheet feeding every downstream view
• Summary view with the headline figures for the period
• Month-over-month comparison with variance
• Category breakdown driven by the entries you record
• Charts that expand automatically as rows are added
• Named ranges throughout, so formulas stay readable
• Input validation on the fields that commonly get mistyped
• Print-ready summary layout sized to one page
