Chapter 9 Flexible Budgets and Performance Analysis Solutions to Questions 9-1 The planning budget is prepared for the planned level of activity. It is static because it is not adjusted even if the level of activity subsequently changes. 9-2 A flexible budget can be adjusted to reflect any level of activity—including the actual level of activity. By contrast‚ a static planning budget is prepared for a single level of activity and is not subsequently adjusted. 9-3 Actual results can differ

CHAPTER 7 FLEXIBLE BUDGETS‚ DIRECT-COST VARIANCES‚ AND MANAGEMENT CONTROL 7-1 Management by exception is the practice of concentrating on areas not operating as expected and giving less attention to areas operating as expected. Variance analysis helps managers identify areas not operating as expected. The larger the variance‚ the more likely an area is not operating as expected. 2. Two sources of information about budgeted amounts are (a) past amounts and (b) detailed engineering studies

Difference between Static and Dynamic RAM The journey of dynamic and static RAM was initiated in 1960s which was readily developed in 1970s. In recent days‚ the technology is much more user friendly. RAM is classified into two types: Dynamic RAM and Static RAM. Static RAM uses a form of flip-flop to circulate data. It uses almost six transistors for its functioning. On the other hand‚ Dynamic RAM (DRAM) is typically charged on the capacitor in it. Static RAM holds the data in the

changing weather conditions. With Static Modelling as the name indicates it is a ridged fixed model and does not change with the any introduction of outside forces. i.e. Building plans on a house‚ the plans represent a model of a house‚ without any introduce of how safe the land is whether there are neighbouring buildings or even a water supply. Those added factors would be real life forces‚ which only a Dynamic model would feature. the difference between a normal distribution and a power-law

False 7. A cost variance is the difference between actual cost and standard cost. True False 8. A budget performance report that includes variances can have variances caused by both price differences and quantity differences. True False 9. A cost variance equals the sum of the quantity variance and the price variance. True False 10. When computing a price variance‚ the price is held constant. True False 11. Within the same budget performance report‚ it is impossible

CHAPTER 3 Predetermined Overhead Rates‚ Flexible Budgets‚ and Absorption/Variable Costing Questions 1. Although both variable and mixed costs change in total with activity measure changes‚ the difference is that variable costs change in direct proportion to such activity changes and mixed costs do not. Since a mixed cost has both a fixed and variable component‚ the cost per unit at different activity levels is not constant as it is with a variable cost. 2. No‚ these are not always the best points
