Coverage timeline iEvery recurring cost the organisation is committed to, laid out over time. A green tick is a payment a budget line covers; a red tick is a payment nothing covers; a grey square is a cost with no payment rhythm recorded, which cannot be forecast. The shaded band behind a row is the money meant to pay for it. Where ticks turn red, the budget line has run out before the cost has.

1 recurring costs, each forecast only as far as the money that funds it runs — a cost is not "uncovered" in a window no grant was ever going to pay for. Every committed cost that has funding is covered by a budget line.

Forecast built from the terms on each record — salaries ÷ 26 biweekly checks, lease payments per month, and the payment rhythm actually observed in the ledger. A cost with no rhythm recorded (a discretionary pot, say) is not projected, because inventing a rhythm would be invention rather than forecast.
