Please, I don't the exact answer but I do need help figuring out how to start the answer. Activity Overview:
Part 1 Overview:
For the first part of this activity, you will be given a hypothetical monthly income, a list of your basic monthly bills, and a brief description of your living situation and daily life.

Based on that information, you will create a monthly budget and financial plan that allows you to pay all of the necessary bills while also having enough money left over to live for the month.

You will also need to take into consideration the details that are given about your life. You will need to weigh your options with these details and decide what is absolutely necessary to fit into your budget and what you can afford to live without.

You may use a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel to organize your monthly financial plan; however, this is not a requirement if you are not comfortable using this type of program. You can also create a table or chart in a word processing program like Microsoft Word, or you can come up with another way to creatively and effectively organize and display your monthly plan.

If you are completely stumped as to how to design and organize your monthly financial plan, do a bit of research! Try Googling ‘monthly financial plan’ or ‘monthly budget template’ to get some ideas.

Part 2 Overview:
After completing your monthly financial plan, you will write a brief reflection (one to three paragraphs) on this financial activity.

The following questions should be addressed in your reflection:

How easy or difficult was this activity?
What were some challenges that you encountered?
Were you able to pay for all of your bills and all of the additional expenses with your income?
If not, what did you eliminate or where did you cut back?
How did you decide what to eliminate or where to cut back?
How might this hypothetical financial plan differ from a future real-life financial plan?
Do you feel more or less comfortable with money management after completing this activity?
Your grade will be based on your ability to appropriately create a comprehensive and well-thought out monthly budget and your ability to write a thoughtful reflection that addresses the required questions. For more details on grading, please refer to the rubric below.

Please submit your monthly financial plan and your typed reflection to the dropbox when completed.
