Requirement 1. Calculate the sales-volume variance and flexible-budget variance for operating income. Begin with the actual results, then complete the flexible budget columns and the static budget columns. Label each variance as favorable (F) or unfavorable (U). (For variances with a $0 balance, make sure to enter "0" in the appropriate field. If the variance is zero, do not select a label.) Actual Results Output units 5,700 Revenues $ 3,990,000 Direct materials $ 783,000 Direct manufacturing labor 590,400 Fixed costs 1,190,000 Total costs $ 2,563,400 Operating income $ 1,426,600 Flexible-Budget Flexible Variance Budget 0 5,700 $ 114,000 F $ 3,876,000 $ 7,800 U $ 775,200 8,100 F 598,500 410,000 F 1,600,000 $ 410,300 F $ 2,973,700 $ 524,300 F $ 902,300 Sales-Volume Static Variance Budget

Flexible budget variance is the difference of the actual results and the flexible budget results.

Actual Sales volume is usually lower than expected . So static budget is prepared to find the differences at lower levels of sales so that the sales prices could be adjusted using variances.

First we compare the actual and the flexible budget as given in the question and write down the variances . Then we compare the flexible budget for which level of output production is 5700 and static budget for which we have taken the output level of production 5500 units . The fixed costs remain constant and variances can be calculated for each change in variable for the 5500 output units of production.
