This means that the budget was over allocated by $200.<\/p>\n<p>A budget is a financial plan that outlines how a company expects to spend its money in the future. The budget is typically divided into categories, such as direct costs, indirect costs, and overhead. Direct costs are costs that can be directly attributed to a specific product or service, such as the cost of materials or labor. Indirect costs are costs that cannot be directly attributed to a specific product or service, such as the cost of rent or utilities. Overhead is a general term for indirect costs.<\/p>\n<p>When a budget is over allocated, it means that the company has budgeted more money than it expects to spend. This can happen for a number of reasons, such as overestimating costs or underestimating revenue. When a budget is over allocated, the company may have to make cuts to its spending in order to stay within budget.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, the company has allocated $2000 for indirect costs, but the actual amount of indirect costs is $2200. This means that the budget was over <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> allocated by $200.
