Budget VS Actual

A check to Mobile Modular got put in Leased facilities and needs to be moved to the modular account. There is also a large amount in the maintenance/expendable equipment. This is because of the unforeseen expenses in the second grade building but that 2600615 chart of accounts needs to be edited. There are a few things that don't belong there.

Need buses and bus drivers desperately. Microbuses are approximately $105,000 but do not require CDL drivers. Regular sized buses are approximately $140,000.00 but do require a CDL driver.
