Your isCategoryInArray is defined (and declared) to take just a single budget, yet you try to pass in an array of budgets (and for that matter, you treat that single budget as an array of budgets inside inCategoryInArray as well). So you should make the declaration match reality.

Thanks for the Help. That was a total brain fart...
