Answer:

Flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue = $3,960 Favorable

Explanation:

Provided budget is static budget, firstly for calculating flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue.

For this flexible budget is made of same level of quantity as of actual level.

therefore Flexible budget sales = 990 units @ $70 per unit price will be same as of static budget.

Therefore Variance = Standard Flexible Budgeted Sales - Actual Sales

Standard Flexible Budgeted Sales = 990 [tex]\times[/tex] $70 = $69,300

Actual Sales Revenue = 990 [tex]\times[/tex] $74 = $73,260

Since actual revenue is more than budgeted sales this is favorable.

Flexible Budget Variance for Sales Revenue = $69,300 - $73,260 = $3,960

Since actual revenue is more than budgeted revenue therefore this is a favorable variance.

Flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue = $3,960 Favorable
