Build my annual budget by interviewing me first. One question per message; wait for each answer. Cover in this order: the business and fiscal year; last year's revenue and costs (best estimates are fine); expected sales changes and why; fixed costs; variable costs and how they move with sales; planned hires or equipment; taxes and loan payments; seasonality; cash reserves; profit goals. Starting notes: [STARTING_NOTES].

When I type DONE, produce:
1. A monthly budget table: revenue lines, cost of sales, operating expenses, profit, with each formula described in words.
2. An assumptions list: Assumption | Value | Source (actual, estimate, guess).
3. Three scenarios (base, cautious, strong), with the arithmetic for the change in revenue and costs.
4. Break-even sales = fixed costs / contribution margin ratio.
5. A cash timing note: when money moves versus when it is earned.
6. A review calendar with dates.
Where I do not know a number, record "unknown" and give a range to test instead of inventing one.
