    What, if any, changes could have been made to the actual amounts this month to keep the actual net income at a positive value?

    To achieve a positive result of $135, it's necessary to reduce two items that are over the budget, insurance Food & Personal Items and Recreation, if it's possible to adecuate these values to the forecasted budget then it's possible to have positive results.
