(A), (C) and (D) only

Correct Answer:

(B), (C) and (D) only

The correct answer is Option (1) → (B), (C) and (D) only

The important features of a budget are:

  • (B) Budgets can be expressed in quantitative terms such as time, materials, or money.

  • (C) A budget quantifies future plans and expected outcomes.

  • (D) A budget projects revenues and expenses for a specific period.

(A) is incorrect because a budget is not merely theoretical — it is a practical, numerical plan used to guide and control operations, though it is indeed a single-use plan.
