Explanation / Answer

9) Variable overhead in flexible budget = 30000*10 = 300000

10) Variable overhead efficiency variance = (30000*2-55000)5 = 25000 F

11) Variable overhad rate variance = (5*55000-280500) = 5500 U

12) Flexible budget :

Unit sold 30000 Expense Advertising expense 200000 Sales salary and commission (30000*12+100000) 460000 Shipping expense (30000*3) 90000 Total 750000
