How to use the Project Budget Generator.
Budgets should separate known prices, estimates and contingency. A total is incomplete when major work packages have no cost assumption.
Make the workflow fit your task.
Attach known prices or explicit estimates to work packages, separating contingency and unresolved costs. Reconcile the total while identifying whether taxes, labor or other required expenses are excluded.
- What you provide
- Work packages, costs and reserves.
- What you get

Example input
Design $600; implementation $1,200; testing cost not supplied.
Completed example
Known subtotal: $1,800. Flag testing and any contingency as unresolved instead of calling this the complete project budget.
Load this input into the prompt, then copy it to WebAct to try the task. Your result may differ from the illustration.
Decisions and troubleshooting.
Can a known subtotal be called the complete project budget?
Only when the relevant costs are covered. Label unresolved packages and exclusions so the total is not mistaken for a fully funded plan.
Why does the budget look precise despite major unknown work?
Separate estimates from quotes and leave unknowns visible. Extra decimal places do not improve uncertain inputs.
