  • Title: Developing a budget for the laboratory.
    Author: Travers EM, Wilkinson DS.
    Journal: Clin Lab Manage Rev; 1997; 11(1):56-66. PubMed ID: 10172931.
    Abstract:
    Cost accounting is the basic "tool" for identifying the expenses associated with laboratory operations. A budget is a planning tool that allows the director and manager to visualize the evolution of expenses, assets, liabilities, and revenues over a period of time. It is a quantitative annual plan of activities and programs that helps an organization measure the progress toward its financial goals on a periodic basis. A knowledge of how to develop and understand a budget is essential for every director and manager.
