Travel Budget Worksheet - AquaBlue edition This workbook plans and tracks the cost of a single trip and shows at a glance whether the trip fits the money set aside for it. You enter one figure, the total budget, in cell C4, and then list every expected cost in the "What Are My Expenses?" table on rows 13 to 34. Each expense line takes a short description, a category chosen from a drop-down list, a quantity and a unit price, and the amount column multiplies them automatically, treating a blank quantity as one. The grand total of the expense table is calculated in cell J35 and is copied into the "Total Expenses" box, while the "Difference" box subtracts the expenses from the budget so a shortfall or a surplus is visible immediately. The five category boxes use SUMIF to add up every expense belonging to Transportation, Lodging, Food and Entertainment, and the "Other" category picks up whatever is left over, so no cost can quietly disappear. Next to each category the percentage of the total is calculated and colour-coded, and the same figures drive the doughnut chart, whose centre displays the running total of all expenses. The category labels themselves live in cells F4 to F8 and can be renamed to suit a particular trip; the drop-down list on the category column follows the change automatically. A second worksheet named "Help" repeats these instructions inside the file for anyone opening it for the first time. Extra expense rows can be inserted anywhere above row 35 and the totals, percentages and chart update on their own, without editing a single formula. This AquaBlue edition is visually identical in function to every other edition in the set: only the colour scheme and the layout treatment differ, so the file can be matched to a company's own branding. The design uses a full-width colour banner across the top of the sheet and a matching solid table header, built around the accent colour #00A6C8.
