These budget tools are templates.  They should not be presented as-is to represent profit or loss potential.  It is incumbent on the user to research and update prices and values to reflect their circumstances.  Generally, blue-shaded numbers are variables that can be changed to run different scenarios while the black numbers are the result of built-in spreadsheet formulas.  Over-writing black numbers will usually compromise the functionality of the spreadsheet.  For assistance using these budget tools, contact Tom Stanley, Agriculture Extension Agent for Farm Business Management at stanleyt@vt.edu
