Answer:
fixed costs = $255,000
variable costs = (15,000 / 17,000) x $216,750 = $191,250

A flexible budget adjusts actual results and helps management control how efficient the company was in following their budget. That is why a flexible budget is done after the budgeted period is over.
Fixed costs should not change (that is why they are fixed), but variable costs should change if the actual output was different than the budgeted output.
Answer:
RE break point = $24500
Explanation:
21,000 net income
30% OF Earnings as dividends
21,000 x 30% = 6,300 dividends
Retained Earnings (assuming no previous beginning value)
21,000 - 6,300 = 14,700
RE break point = 14,700/0.6 = 24500
What does the $24,500 mean?
This mean that the company can raise financing for this ammount without changing their capital structure (60% equity 40% debt)

Answer:
Level of sales in dollars in order to generate a profit of $54,000 Fixed cost + Target profit/Contribution per unit $270,000 + $54,0000/0.75
= $432,000
Number of units to be sold
= Level of sales/Selling price
= $432,000/$36

Answer:
the costs that change depending on a company's performance
Explanation:
Variable costs refer to the costs that fluctuate with the level of production. An increase or decrease in the output level results in variable costs moving in the same direction. If the business stops production, the variable costs will be nil.
Raw materials and packaging costs are good examples of variable costs. The more a company produces, the more materials it consumes, and the higher the costs of purchasing the materials.
