| budget for each year (for example, property tax for 2008 = 52,242,954/total revenue * 100). |
| 3. Calculate the amount change from 2008 to 2016 for each revenue source and expenditure, |
| and for total revenues and expenditures (=2008 amount - 2016 amount). |
| 4. Calculate the % change from 2008 to 2016 for each revenue source and expenditure, and |
| for total revenues and expenditures (= amount change/2008 amount * 100). |

| budget, how much it has changed over time, the major revenue sources and which have |
| experienced the greatest change, the major expenditure categories and which have experienced |
| the most change (be sure to include $'s and %'s in your discussion, do not talk generally). |
