                                        Croix Company

                                    Sales budget report

                             for the quarter ending March 31, 2020

Product line               Budget       Actual         Difference  

Newest guitar        $383,200     $399,500     $16,300 Favorable

                             Static budget for the year to date

                                        Croix Company

                                    Sales budget report

                             for the quarter ending March 31, 2020

Product line      Budget          Actual          Difference

Newest guitar  $696,400      $703,500      $7,100 Unfavorable

Working note

Total budget sales = Sales of first quarter + Sales of second quarter

= $313,200 + $383,200

= $696,400

Total actual sales = Sales of first quarter + Sales of second quarter

=  $304,000 + $399,500

= $703,500
