    Explanation
    Budgets are intended to support the present action plan in numbers by quantifying the resources needed to execute the plan. They also help in planning the required resources by determining the amount of money, manpower, and materials needed for the plan. Budgets forecast planned expenditure by estimating the costs associated with the action plan. They also monitor progress against plans by comparing the actual expenditure with the budgeted amount. Budgets validate procurement and payment requests by ensuring that they align with the allocated budget. They require approval of expenditure to ensure that spending is within the budgeted limits. Budgets advise donors on change of plans by providing information on how the changes will impact the budget. Finally, budgets report actual expenditure against the budget to track financial performance.

    True or False – functional markets or its capacity are not essential factors to consider when assessing the feasibility of a cash transfer intervention.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Functional markets or their capacity are essential factors to consider when assessing the feasibility of a cash transfer intervention. This is because the effectiveness and success of a cash transfer program heavily rely on the availability and accessibility of functioning markets where beneficiaries can use the cash to purchase goods and services. If markets are not functional or lack the capacity to meet the demand generated by the cash transfer, the intervention may not achieve its intended objectives. Therefore, it is important to consider the state of markets and their capacity when assessing the feasibility of a cash transfer intervention.
