A) $28,800 U B) $600 U C) $5,400 U D) $23,400 F

Explanation / Answer

Answer:-Flexible budget variance for variable costs= $5400 Unfavourable

Explanation:-

Flexible budget variance for variable costs:-

Standard cost of variable costs – Actual cost of variable costs

=$23400 - $28800

=$5400

Where:-

Standard cost of variable costs=Actual sale units*Budgeted variable cost per unit

                =1800 units*$13 per unit =$23400

Actual cost of variable costs=Actual sale units*actual variable cost per unit

                =1800 units*$16 per unit =$28800
