• The estimated receipts and proposed expenditures of the government

Answer 1

The Government Budget is an annual financial statement describing in detail the estimated receipts and proposed expenditures of the government for a financial year. Since it contains estimates, it is forward-looking for the coming year rather than a record of actual past transactions.
