Budgets are not merely a collectivity of target numbers for future period. 预算并不仅仅是那些为未来期间而制定的目标数字的集合。
Collectivity \Col`lec*tiv"i*ty\, n. 1. Quality or state of being collective. [Webster 1913 Suppl.]
2. The collective sum, aggregate, or mass of anything; specif., the people as a body; the state.
The proposition to give work by the collectivity is supposed to be in contravention of the sacred principle of monopolistic competition. --W. D. Howells. [Webster 1913 Suppl.]
