Answer 2

Option C is correct

C) budget deficit of $100,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

A budget deficit or surplus is the difference between the estimated expenditures and revenue.

A budget surplus occurs where the estimated total revenue is greater that the estimated total expenditure.

On the other hand, it is deficit where the estimated revenue is less than the estimated expenditures

For City of Miketown, the budget deficit =

250,000 - 350,000

=$(100,000)
