$225,000×$9= $2,025,000(Master budget)

$230,000×$9=$2,070,000( Flexible budget)

$2,070,000-$2,025,000=$45,000 Sales Activities Variance

Variable cost

$225,000×$3.75= $843,750 (Master budget)

$230,000×$3.75= $862,500(Flexible budget)

$862,500-$843,750=$18,750 Sales Variance

Answer:

The operating profit under actual budget gives $833,000 while flexible budget gives $982,500 which results in an unfavorable variance of $149,500

Explanation:

In computing the final variance  I started with sales revenue for the actual production and sales of 230,000 under both actual and flexed budgets.

This approach implies that the original budget was revised to reflect actual quantity produced and sold but the budgeted amounts  were used under flexed budget  while the actual amounts were applied under the actual budget preparation.

During 2015 Lopez Corporation reported net sales of $3,200,000 and net income of $1,200,000. Its balance sheet reported average
Sholpan [36]

The asset turnover is 2.4 times.

Asset turnover  = Net sales \div Average total assets

Asset turnover  =  $3,000,000 \div [  $1,000,000 + $1,500,000 ] \div 2

Asset turnover  =  2.4 times

Asset turnover is the ratio of total sales or revenue to average assets. This metric helps investors understand how effectively companies are using their assets to generate revenue. Investors use asset turnover to compare similar companies in the same industry or group.

In the retail sector, an asset turnover of 2.5 or higher may be considered good, but in the utility sector, a company is more likely to aim for an asset turnover between his 0.25 and 0.5.
