Explanation:

Lincoln Corporation

Static Budget Variances

                                  Actual               Budgeted              Static Budget

                                  Units sold         Units sold                Variance

                               42,000 units          39,000 units

Sales Price               $ 12                        $ 12

Revenues               504000                 468000              36000 Unfavorable

Variable costs         $ 168,000            $ 158,000           10,000 Unfavorable

Fixed costs           $ 46, 000               $ 48,000              2000 Favorable

The Static Budget Variance is calculated by subtracting the budgeted amounts from the actual amounts.

In a static budget the actual amounts are not changed for different activity levels. Instead the actual is compared with the budgeted so that exact variance is obtained for an organization.
