PROJECT BUDGET AND BUDGET JUSTIFICATION 

      The Literature review to be undertaken requires the use of published journal articles, peer reviewed articles and various books. It incurs costs to access and use those articles and books. $500 has been estimated for this purpose.

      To distribute the questionnaires to respondents, it is possible to contact the HR department of banks and ask them to distribute it to the employees. However, it may take very long time. Therefore. It is better to approach the employees in person and provide the questionnaire sheets. For that, it is required to employ some individuals (at least one person for each banks) and need to pay them. Thus, the  cost  for  the  payment  to  those  individuals  as  well  as  travel  and  stationery

expenses is estimated at around $3,000.

    Similarly,  to  conduct  the  Interviews  of  the  respondents  and  observations,  the

expenses is estimated around $4,000.

      For the purpose of collecting data, accessing figures/ charts etc. for data analysis and using various software for data analysis (for eg. SPSS), we need to allocate some budget. The estimated budget for this process is $1,500.

The summary of the expenses is:
