Why does the budget begin in the middle of the calendar year?
Many organizations have adopted twelve-month financial planning periods which do not begin or end with the calendar year. These financial or fiscal years are often set to be in conformance with similar organizations. Most governments, school systems, and many nonprofit enterprises use a July 1st to June 30th fiscal year.
