Dear _________________:
I received your _________________ regarding the budget overrun on _________________. While I understand that you feel the amount of money spent on the project is excessive, I'd like to explain briefly how the overrun came about.
_________________.
I hope that this helps you to understand how this situation arose. Clearly, I was aware of the expenses at every stage in the process. There was no deliberate waste, and no careless or thoughtless spending. The bottom line is that the project and all its components just cost more than we had budgeted for it.
The good news is that the project is working out well.
Please call me if you would like to discuss this situation further.
Sincerely,
