PROPOSED BUDGET -- SPECIAL PROJECT
This report outlines the estimated costs for carrying out the
special project.  Due to the nature of the project, general
expenses are projected to increase 14% monthly.  
Expenses for the
first month will be higher than we had originally expected.
monthly increases in expenses do not include my travel costs;
those will be paid for out of the department's travel budget, as
we discussed.  Performance reviews to be conducted this spring
will increase salary expenditures 15% in April.  
Next week I will submit a report on the profit possibilities for
the project, covering worst case, best case, and what we actually
expect given the information we have to date.  I will submit
updates to this report each month as the project progresses. 
By the end of April we should have a good idea whether or not
this project will result in a profitable venture.  If the
possibilities don't look good at that point, we can cut the
project short.
