Calculate the monthly budget

Provide for the costs re-invoiced by the lessor in addition to the rent.

Enter the parameters to calculate the budget. Zero means zero expense.

Fictitious example: a quote of €1,200 per year gives a smoothed budget of €100 per month.

The budget is distributed at a fixed amount each month. It does not automatically track turnover, headcount, seasons or annual deadlines. It must be recalculated after modifying these assumptions.
