This is an issue I've been trying to argue for a while now. Before with version 11, the only budget you had was a scouting budget. So, if you were over the owner's budget at the end of the preseason, it would automatically make it half of the league average.
Now since, we have national scouting, international scouting and player development budgets things are a lot more screwy. Just be glad that you didn't proceed to spring training with your player development set at $12 million. It would have kept your player development budget the same but completely wiped out your scouting budget (and since it's no longer pre-season you can't change it)
So, there's two issues here. One is that your total cash on hand from the previous season is not used to calculate money you have available for your scouting and player development budgets. Secondly, some sort of algorithm needs to be developed to determine how much of which budget is reduced by in order for your expenses to be within the owners budget (or owner's budget + cash).
