Estimating Costs and Allocating Resources

The tasks this week is to find two resources that are useful in estimating costs and allocating resources. Searching blogs websites and computer software, discoveries showed me a number of useful tools that will fulfill this purpose. Microsoft excel and other tools based on excel were found. Google Drive also has a plethora of tools, one specifically is Google spreadsheets. Office.microsoft.com and Google Drive (http://www.google.com/google-d-s/templates_finance.html) both provide tips suggestions and lesson resources and videos for using the budgeting tools with both budgeting tools resource assignments, task settings, pay, and costs can be prepared. Both are very detailed in the resources that allow learning to use

Another sight, referenced on flyheartz.wordpress.com, was Bright Hub. It offers organizing tools and templates to effectively and efficiently carry out the budget and allocation process. It also informs about what should be used and not used.
