The TV Corporation manufactures 2 types of TVs. The Basic TV | |||||||||||||
and the Deluxe TV. Budgeted and actual annual operating data areas follows: | |||||||||||||
Static Budget | Basic | Deluxe | Total | ||||||||||
Number units Sold | 60,000 | 40,000 | 100,000 | ||||||||||
Total Contribution Margin | $3,480,000 | $3,444,000 | $6,924,000 | ||||||||||
Budgeted CM per unit | $58.00 | $86.10 | |||||||||||

Total Contribution Margin | $3,650,850 | $3,612,000 | $7,262,850 | ||||||||||
But, the actual industry volume was | 300,000 | Units | |||||||||||
Prior to the beginning of the year, a consulting firm estimatedthe total volume | |||||||||||||

Calculate the following information and variances on theworksheet entitled analysis. I have tried to give some helpfulhints. | |||||||||||||
Use the contribution margin approach in the following salesvariance analysis that follows. | |||||||||||||
a. Calculate the Static-budget variance. | I have tried to set up a model to use on the analysisworksheet. | Look at Exhibit 14-11 p.571 | |||||||||||
b. Calculate the contribution margin for the flexiblebudget. | |||||||||||||
c. Calculate the flexible budget variance. | |||||||||||||
d. Calculate the sales-volume variance. | |||||||||||||
e. Compute the actual sales-mix | |||||||||||||
f. Compute the budgeted sales-mix | |||||||||||||
g . Compute the sales-mix variance for each product andthen the total sales-mix variance like the table shown onpage 572. I have set up the table for you to fill in. | |||||||||||||
h. Compute the sales-quantity variance by type of machine andtotal | |||||||||||||
if total actual quantity is greater than total budgeted unitsthe sales-quantity will always be F and the opposite will occurwhen actual is less than budgeted). | |||||||||||||
i. Compute the market-share variance | |||||||||||||
j. Compute the market-size variance. | 4 | ||||||||||||
k. Comment on the results of the above variance analysis. Makesure your comments identify specific variances and | |||||||||||||
the impact of these variances on income. |
Do not forget to use the IF function to determine if thevariance is favorable or unfavorable. | ||||||
I used a formula approach like the author did and I expecteveryone to use cell references and use the Problem 2 worksheet asyour data for cell references. | ||||||
I will take off 5 pts. if you have not used cell references fromthe problem 2 worksheet as your reference for the calculations. Iwill take off 3 pts. for not using IF statements or 1/2 each. | ||||||
When you are adding multiple variances, either use the SUMIFfunction or a nested IF. | ||||||
Also, make sure you are using ABS function, since variancesshould not be positive and negative. | ||||||
I have color coded some areas that should match, since you canuse these variances to check your work since they should equal eachother. | ||||||
Comments in "K" are worth 1 pt. You need to clearly identifymultiple sales variance you have calculated and the impact inincome. | ||||||
a. Calculate the Static-budget variance. | $338,850 | F | ||||

Prepare a flexible budget performance report that shows anyvariances between budgeted results and actual results. List fixedand variable expenses separately. (Input all amounts aspositive values. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting"F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect(i.e., zero variance). Omit the "$" sign in yourresponse.) |
