Required:
a.
Prepare a performance report for all costs showing static budget variances.
b.
Prepare a performance report for all costs showing flexible budget variances.
206. Compare and contrast static budgets, flexible budgets, and activity-based budgets.
A static budget is a budget developed for one level of activity. Once a sales number is calculated, the
production, marketing, and administrative budgets are based on that sales number. A static budget does not take
into consideration fluctuations in actual demand and sales for an organization. Since actual activity rarely equals
a budgeted level, static budgets are not usually relevant when performance reports are needed. They are useful
for planning purposes.
