The role of the budget in the country's economy
The

resources are necessary for performance of the functions. The most part of
needs was satisfied due to a various sort of duties and deliveries from natural
gathering. For a background of demands for resources, their specific direction
separate cost proposals of expenses and incomes were made. The first attempt of
formation of the uniform general of the cost proposal of incomes and
incomes which receives the name the
budget (from English budget - a bag of the treasurer, a bag with money), has
been carried out in the end of XVII century in England.
The
budget is the important means realisation the state organizing functions, as
well as effective instrument

structures having a commodity way of manufacture. Its occurrence and progress
is integrally connected with use of the
states in the certain volumes of financial resources. Relations of production
