Question

Via Gelato is a popular neighborhood gelato shop. The company has provided the following data concerning its operations:



While gelato is sold by the cone or cup, the shop measures its activity in terms of the total number of liters of gelato sold. For example, wages should be $6,400 plus $2.20 per liter of gelato sold and the actual wages for June were $20,200. Via Gelato expected to sell 6,300 liters in June, but actually sold 6,500 liters.


Complete the report showing Via Gelato revenue and spending variances for June. (Input all amounts as positive values. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).)

Via Gelato is a popular neighborhood gelato shop. The company has provided the following data concerning its operations:

Explanation / Answer

Spending variances

Raw material = (5.45*6500 liters) - 36030 = $605U

Wages = 6400+(2.2*6500) - 20200 = $500 F

Utilities = 2430+(1*6500) - 9100 = $170U

Rent, Insurance = No variance

Miscellaneous = $730+(1.15*6500)-$8050 = $155F

Revenue Variance

Revenue variance = (20*6300) - $122540 = $3460U
