What are the main characteristics of Zero base budget
Historical goes off what happened in previous years, whereas zero base is starting from scratch not taking into account previous year.
Zero based budgeting is a really good approach to planning and making decision which is the opposite of traditional budgeting. The term "zero-based budgeting" is sometimes used in personal finance to describe "zero-sum budgeting", the practice of budgeting every dollar of income received, andthen adjusting some part of the budget downward for every other part that needs to be adjusted upward.
In zero based budgeting all estimates are prepared from start and no previous data is available so all assumptions are made from scratch and all costs relations are made from scratch using standard costing methods.

Zero-based budgeting is a method of budgeting where all the expenses have to be justified for each new period. This method starts with a zero base and all the functions in a company are analyzed for costs and needs.

Traditional budgeting is less precise because money that is left over is not accounted for. Zero based budgeting accounts for every single dollar, hence it is more accurate.
