Sales Variances
Assume that Casio Computer Company, LTD. sells handheld communication devices for $130 during August as a back-to-school special. The normal selling price is $190. The standard variable cost for each device is $80. Sales for August had been budgeted for 400,000 units nationwide; however, due to the slowdown in the economy, sales were only 350,000.
Compute the revenue, sales price, sales volume, and net sales volume variances.
Explanation / Answer
1.Revenue Variance = Actual Sales - Budgeted Sales
350,000*130 - 400,000 *190 = ($30,500,000) - Unfavourable
2.Sales Price Variance = (Actual Sale Price - Budgeted Sale Price) * Actual Quantity
($130 - $190) 350,000 = ($21,000,000) - Unfavourable.
3.Sales Volume Variance = (Actual Unit Sold - Budgeted Unit Sales) * Standard Profit Per Unit
($350,000 - $400,000)*$110 = ($55,00,000) Unfavourable.
Standard Sale Price Per Unit - Standard Cost Per Unit = Standard Profit Per Unit
=$190 - $80 = $110
4.Net Sales Volume Variance = (Actual Unit Sold - Budgeted Unit Sales) * Standard Profit Per Unit
($350,000 - $400,000)*$110 = ($55,00,000)-Unfavourable.
Same as Sales Volume Variance
