Arranging a budget discussion
A: Roger? Would it be possible to meet with you to discuss my department’s budget?
B: Of course, Debbie. Let me look at my schedule, -- I have some free time on the 12th. That’s this Thursday at 9:00 a.m.
A: All right. That’ll be fine. Can you put together a rough idea of the kind of money I’ll have available for the next year?
B: Certainly. I’ve already worked out a general budget for all the departments.
