The company president was displeased with the department manager's performance.
The department manager, who thought he had done a good job, could not understand
the unfavorable results. In May, 55,000 units were produced.
Instructions
(a) State the total budgeted cost formula.
(b) Prepare a budget report for May using flexible budget data. Why does this report provide
a better basis for evaluating performance than the report based on static budget
data?
(c) In June, 40,000 units were produced. Prepare the budget report using flexible budget
data, assuming (1) each variable cost was 20% less in June than its actual cost in May,
and (2) fixed costs were the same in the month of June as in May.
