Top managers of Root Industries predicted 2025 sales of 14,500 units of its product at a unit price of $9.50. Actual sales for the year were 14,300 units at $11.00 each. Variable costs were budgeted at $3.40 per unit, and actual variable
costs were $3.50 per unit. Actual fixed costs of $44,000 exceeded budgeted fixed costs by $5,000
Prepare Root Industries' flexible budget performance report. What variance contributed most to the year's favorable results? What caused this variance?
Prepare a flexible budget performance report for the year. First, complete the flexible budget performance report through the contribution margin line, then complete the report through the operating income line. Finally, compute the total
variances. (Enter a 0 for any zero balances. Label the variance as favorable (F) or unfavorable (U), in the input field after the amount you enter. For any $0 variances, leave the Favorable (F)Unfavorable (U) input field blank.)
