A fixed budget, also known as a static budget, is a financial plan that remains unchanged regardless of variations in actual levels of activity or circumstances. It does not adjust budget cost allowances for variable items, providing a steady financial framework.
A flexible budget adjusts budgeted income and expenditure based on changing circumstances and actual activity levels, allowing for a more accurate financial planning and performance measurement.
