The easy way to reduce expenditure is to stop unnecessary expenses like regulate energy consumption, buying lunch, transportation expenses. I trek to my shop everyday though the distance is not all that much. I make sure I turn off the light once am not around. Thirdly, I take my lunch to my shop. By these exercise, icreduce cost drastically.
And there are times that there is no need for electricity and they will put on the generator which will consume fuel. In that way, we have wasted money because it was not needed at that time

The business owner must assess his expenses as essential or not. Aircons must be on at 9 in the morning and put them off at 3 in the afternoon. They can replace with electric fans.

Try reaching out to your current suppliers and see if they're willing to offer a discount in exchange for a longer-term commitment. You could also look into finding new suppliers who offer lower prices.

I reduce the costs in my business by managing inputs to achieve efficiency. I don't run generator if it is not needed for production. And I find cheaper ways and alternatives.

One thing that reduces the income of a business is it expenses and bills. To avoid the business expenditure exceeding the business income the expenditure of the business must be reduced drastically so how can this expenditures be reduced?

There was another topic that was discussing giving bonuses to your workers all the time which is something that I strongly disagree with because you are just getting yourself into an unnecessary expenses.

Over staffing is one of the major issues in many businesses. If you have more then what you need to operate your business you need to cut the expenses. If possible try to outsource
