Why should annual bills appear in a monthly budget?
A bill due once a year still uses household resources even when it is absent from a recent bank statement.
Identify predictable nonmonthly expenses before testing an additional commitment.
Keep their timing visible as well as a monthly equivalent. The equivalent helps compare totals, while the actual due month reveals whether several obligations arrive together.
