For the final project, you will compare the budgets of two municipalities (cities) or nonprofit agencies. Therefore, you must obtain copies of the budgets for the cities or agencies, which are generally available online. The purpose of this project will be to see how funds are distributed among the various departmental agencies within the cities or nonprofit agencies in order to determine the priorities.
You will take the next step in developing your final project. You should continue your research and begin writing about the information (demographic and policy) available in the budgets and in the literature. Also, create any budget tables, graphs, or charts to visually show the information you find important to accompany your written text.
You should conduct background research on the selected entities by securing the budgets and beginning the literature review. You will be able to view links of different reports in order to get a better idea of how your final report should look. The link to the entity's budget analysis should serve as a model for the report you are creating for the final project. List the Web sites or periodicals you will be using.

• Include the Web sites and periodicals to be used and indicate the research conducted from these sources.
• The literature review as part of the final project paper, illustrating what other sources are researching relative to city or non-profit budgets.
• Summary on the information you collected that will be integrated into the analysis section of the final report using APA style.
