    Could you plz help me understand these three methods of budgeting:

    1) Fixed Budget
    2) Flexed Budget
    3) Flexible Budget

    Please tell me the difference between all of these methods. I appreciate your help 🙂

    The fixed budget is the original budget.

    The flexed budget is the original budget adjusted for the actual level of activity.

    A flexible budget is one designed so as to be easily flexed (so with variable and fixed costs identified separately).

    All of this is explained in my free lectures!

    It is true.

    A flexible budgets enables a flexed budget to be prepared and therefore enables the actual results to be compared with expected results for the same volume of activity,
