Free Agent $ Available / Budget Issues

Okay. So I was told that I had $2million+ to spend on free agents. So, naturally, I assumed I could spend this money. So I did. This brought my expenses up and the available $ down as it should and I still had $ available (seen below).



The problem that I am having is in understanding the budget / balance and how it even means anything. In the picture below, I am shown to be projected to have a $1.8million loss for the season. Now, I spent this money assuming that I actually had it, since the page before it said I did. But now, that brings my balance down to only $130,000.



My question is, if the profit/loss is calculated by the BALANCE and not the BUDGET, then why would it tell me that I have available funds to spend when spending that money has put me in a huge loss situation?

Your owner gives you a budget to use. That won't always line up 100% with the projected figures. Sometimes owners might be willing to take a small loss, or they think the extra money can be made back later in the season by ticket sales.

Thank you for the response. So in the case above, I actually lost $1.8million (not projected) on my balance.

So, in essence, you could have a loss on your balance, but still be fine on your budget?
