Variance Analysis Report In order to perform a variance analysis report Jenkins calculated the actual revenues and expenses and found the difference which was $296‚610 in profits. Then Jenkins did the same with budgeted values and found the budgeted profits to be $606‚350. The variance amount in turn is $309‚960 under budget. Also‚ the variance amount for revenues is $32‚100. This number is favorable due to the fact that they made more than what they

which costs cannot be controlled. The variance analysis simply showed that there was an unfavorable variance for manufacturing (99‚000 U). Manufacturing Cost of Goods Sold must be evaluated individually because of the underlying facets from just a number. This unfavorable number could be caused by either an increase in price or a waste in using the number of unit materials. The materials variance should be broken down into the price variance and the usage variance. Exhibit 1 shows that variable cost

Budget variances have been recorded for Peyton Approved‚ which will show how well the company is running. To find variances a manager “will compare actual production costs to the standard costs” (Nobles et al.‚ 2014). The determined variances for Peyton Approved are cost variances and efficiency variances. A cost variance “measures how well the business keeps unit costs of material and labor inputs within standards” (Nobles et al.‚ 2014). To calculate cost variance‚ a manager would subtract actual
