Abstract
A critical determinant of successful event management is the capacity to predict and monitor event costs and revenues. Cost blow-outs or lower than expected revenues can significantly impact an event’s financial performance, turn an anticipated profit into a loss, create major cash flow problems, and impair the financial health of an events business.
