1. Event-Specific
Your prom committee should be a one-of-a-kind, memorable event, and your expense tracker shouldn't be any generic old template! Our budget planner has categories and line items that specifically make sense for a Prom Committee.
2. Pie Charts
Once you start filling in your budget items, the expense sheet will automatically start filling in the pie charts at the top of the page. These graphs will show you visually how much you’re spending by category. Use this tool to gauge if you want to allocate more to a specific category, or less to another!
3. Easy to View
The sheet is organized in a user-friendly fashion. Instead of having all of the details in one long list like you may have had otherwise, this sheet separates prom committee expenses by category.
Another formatting feature that will help you plan is the estimated and actual columns. You can start out with a rough budget in the estimated column, and once the ball gets rolling and you know actual prices, you can adjust spending accordingly.
4. Shareable!
This sheet is easily shared through Google Sheets, so you can easily work with fellow planners to get this event planned in record time. Having everyone’s eyes on the same sheet reduces the possibility of costly or important mistakes.
5. Easy to Organize
If you are sharing this sheet with fellow planners, you will find it easy to assign people to certain expenses with the ‘who pays’ column! This will ensure someone is on top of making sure that the item is ready to go.
6. Individual Payment Tab
Our sheet also lets you keep track of individual expenses and payments made on the Payment Tab (found at the bottom of the worksheet). Simply enter the Total Cost and assign the person responsible for payments for that item. Then enter your payments made and we'll calculate the amount left.
