Folder Content:

Actuals

• Contains all the JavaScript code for rendering a ACTUAL form, which can be used to log actual data input from the user. Data inputed from the user is then stored in a Mongo Database, which is retrieved and rendered to the main page when a user logs in. New input data is also rendered as soon as a user inputs values.

Budget

• Contains all the JavaScript code for rendering a BUDGET form, which can be used to log budget data input from the user. Data inputed from the user is then stored in a Mongo Database, which is retrieved and rendered to the main page when a user logs in. New input data is also rendered as soon as a user inputs values.

Income Tax

• Contains Javascript code that takes in registered/guest user inputs and calculates estimated tax liability based on the inputs. It then displays on the application what the estimated tax liability is.
