What is BUDGET?

Answer 1

Financial Diet Plan. It generally refers to a list of all planned expenses and revenues. A budget is an important concept in microeconomics. A personal budget is among the most important concepts of personal finance. In a personal or family budget all sources of income (inflows) are identified and expenses (outflows) are planned with the intent of matching outflows to inflows.

It's also slang:
"Budget" may be used as a euphemism to describe something that looks or feels inexpensive, cheap or underresourced. In some cases, "budget" could replace the term "sucks" or variants thereof when describing a subject, if it meets the criteria for the word. For example, when describing a repair to an automobile that was poorly done or obviously done for a low cost, one might say "That car looks budget."
