-\f0\fs28 \cf0 @c --budget generate budget transactions based on FILE\
-\
-There is more information about budgeting and forecasting in\
-@ref\{Budgeting and forecasting\}. Basically, if you have any period\
-transactions in your ledger file, you can use these options. A period\
-transaction looks like:\
-\
-@example\
-~ Monthly\
- Assets:Bank:Checking $500.00\
- Income:Salary\
-@end example\
-\
-The difference from a regular transaction is that the first line begins with\
-a tilde (~), and instead of a payee there's a period expression\
-(@ref\{Period expressions\}). Otherwise, a period transaction is in every\
-other way the same as a regular transaction.\
-\
-With such a transaction in your ledger file, the @option\{--budget\} option\
-will report only postings that match a budgeted account. Using\
-@file\{sample.dat\} from above:\
-\
-@example\
-ledger --budget reg ^income\
-@end example\
-\
-Reports:\
-\
-@smallexample\
-2004/05/01 Budget transaction Income:Salary $500.00 $500.00\
-2004/05/14 Pay day Income:Salary $-500.00 0\
-@end smallexample\
-\
-The final total is zero, indicating that the budget matched epostly\
-for the reported period. Budgeting is most often helpful with period\
-reporting; for example, to show monthly budget results use\
-@option\{--budget -p monthly\}.\
-\
-@c --add-budget show all postings plus the budget\
-@c --unbudgeted show only unbudgeted postings\
-\
-The @option\{--add-budget\} option reports all matching postings in\
-addition to budget postings; while @option\{--unbudgeted\} shows\
-only those that don't match a budgeted account. To summarize:\
-\
-@table @option\
-@item --budget\
-Show postings matching budgeted accounts.\
-@item --unbudgeted\
-Show postings matching unbudgeted accounts.\
-@item --add-budget\
-Show both budgeted and unbudgeted postings together (i.e., add the\
-generated budget postings to the regular report).\
-@end table\
-\
-@c --forecast EXPR generate forecast transactions while EXPR is true\
-\
-A report with the @option\{--forecast\} option will add budgeted\
-postings while the specified value expression is true. For\
-example:\
-\
-@example\
-ledger --forecast 'd<[2005] reg ^income\
-@end example\
-\
-Reports:\
-\
-@smallexample\
-2004/05/14 Pay day Income:Salary $-500.00 $-500.00\
-2004/12/01 Forecast transaction Income:Salary $-500.00 $-1,000.00\
-2005/01/01 Forecast transaction Income:Salary $-500.00 $-1,500.00\
-@end smallexample\
-\
-The date this report was made was November 5, 2004; the reason the\
-first forecast transaction is in december is that forecast transactions are only\
-added for the future, and they only stop after the value expression\
-has matched at least once, which is why the January transaction appears. A\
-forecast report can be very useful for determining when money will run\
-out in an account, or for projecting future cash flow:\
-\
-@example\
-ledger --forecast 'd<[2008]' -p yearly reg ^inc ^exp\
-@end example\
-\
-This reports balances projected income against projected expenses,\
-showing the resulting total in yearly intervals until 2008. For the\
-case of @file\{sample.dat\}, which has no budgeted expenses, the result\
-of the above command (in November 2004) is:\
-\
-@smallexample\
-2004/01/01 - 2004/12/31 Income:Salary $-1,000.00 $-1,000.00\
- Expenses:Books $20.00 $-980.00\
-2005/01/01 - 2005/12/31 Income:Salary $-6,000.00 $-6,980.00\
-2006/01/01 - 2006/12/31 Income:Salary $-6,000.00 $-12,980.00\
-2007/01/01 - 2007/12/31 Income:Salary $-6,000.00 $-18,980.00\
-2008/01/01 - 2008/01/01 Income:Salary $-500.00 $-19,480.00\
