Program Information:
myBudget 2.0 is a program for Windows Mobile to help you with your monthly budget. There are three tabs when you open the application. The first is the Income tab, where you enter in your income amounts, the frequency of your pay rate (hourly, weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, or monthly), tax percentage, bonus amount, bonus taxes, and any overtime hours along with how much your overtime is worth (0.5x - 3.0x). Also on this tab, you enter any pre-tax deductions (health insurance, 401(k)) that are removed from your pay before taxes. The second tab is for Expenses, where you enter in all of your monthly expenses, how much they cost, and what day they're due (optional). myBudget automatically calculates how much (in percentage) of your monthly after-tax pay is used by each expense. The third and final tab is the Budget tab, which shows all of the final budget information. This includes the total monthly income, income after pre-tax deductions, the take-home pay (after taxes and deductions), the sum of all expenses and the percentage of take-home pay they use, and the disposable (leftover) income.

There are options to password protect your files, notify you of upcoming expenses when a profile is loaded, and and option to open your last opened profile when the program loads. All information is saved in MBF files, so you can create multiple profiles if you wish, or have a different file for each month!

There is a very notable feature of the program that you may want to know. Bonus and Overtime income are linked to a primary ("salary" or "other") source of income, and pre-tax deductions are also linked to a primary source of income as well. These sources are determined by your entry. This allows for proper calculation and better information for you, the user. If you remove a primary income that is tied to an overtime or bonus income, or a pre-tax deduction, these will be removed as well (myBudget prompts you first).
