Flexible Budgets
Static budgets are
prepared for a single,
planned level of
activity.
Hmm! Comparing
static budgets
with actual costs
is like comparing
apples and oranges.
Performance
evaluation for
overhead is difficult
when actual activity
differs from the
planned level of
activity.

Flexible Budgets
Consider
the following
example from
the Cheese
Company . . .
Hmm! Comparing
static budgets
with actual costs
is like comparing

Static Budgets and
Performance Reports
I don’t think I can
answer this question
using a static budget.
I do know that
actual activity is below
budgeted activity which
is unfavorable.
But shouldn’t variable costs
be lower if actual activity
is below budgeted activity?
11-7
Static Budgets and
Performance Reports
• The relevant question is . . .
“How much of the favorable cost variance is due
to lower activity, and how much is due to good
cost control?”
• To answer the question,
we must
the budget to the
actual level of activity.
11-8
Flexible Budgets
Central Concept
If you can tell me what your activity was
for the period, I will tell you what your costs
and revenue should have been.
11-9
Advantages of Flexible Budgets
Show revenues and expenses
that should have occurred at the
actual level of activity.
May be prepared for any activity
level in the relevant range.
Reveal variances due to good cost
control or lack of cost control.
Improve performance evaluation.

Choice of Activity Measure

Variable overhead and the activity
measure should vary in a similar
pattern.

Identify variable overhead cost
drivers.


Examples: machine hours, labor
hours, process time.
Dollar measures should be avoided
as they are subject to price-level
changes.

Cost Management Using
Overhead Cost Variances
Let’s turn our attention
to the computation of
overhead cost variances.
We will begin with
variable overhead.

Variable Overhead Variances –
Example
ColaCo’s actual production for the period
required 3,200 standard machine hours.
Actual variable overhead incurred for the
period was $6,740. Actual machine hours
worked were 3,300.
Compute the variable overhead spending and
efficiency variances.

ColaCo prepared this
