Explanation / Answer

ANSWER Static Budget refers to the budget which are planned by the organisation regarding the future whereas Flexible Budget Refers to the budget that actually happens ( actual result ) of the organisation.

Static sales units are planned and actual sales units are real so to avoid the mismatch we make flexible budget on the basis of actual result ( sale units ) . Now we have to As Actual Sales unit and Flexible Budget Unit are same so we donot have to make the Flexilble Budget Again

We know

Sales Volume Variance = Static Operating Income - Flexible Operating Income  

= $ 211800 - $ 241600

= $ 29800 Unfavourable

C option is correct
