Prepare a 1,500 – 1,800 word examination of the budgeting process in which you include the following:

• Develop an allocated budget with real numbers that you feel will cover all costs of the consulting project. (Show the information in a chart with relevant line number information and add the chart as an Appendix, with the detailed explanation within the body of the paper).
• Analyze the Return on Investment (ROI) within the allocated budget.
• Examine the ROI challenges.
• Discuss the forces driving the ROI.
• Explain the elements of ROI methodology.

Note: If you use a chart, graph, etc., please ensure you add it as an Appendix after your paper, and then format it as per the APA Manual 6th Edition. Do not use a chart, graph, etc., in the body of the paper, as they are considered appendix material. You would then explain in detail the chart, graph, etc., within the body of the paper.
