Hi, could you help me with this. I couldn't find the correct answer.

Thanks.

As the new accountant for Cohen & Co., you have been asked to provide a succinct analysis of financial performance for the year just ended. You obtain the following information that pertains to the company's sole product: Master (Static) Actual Budget Units sold 35,000 40,000 Sales $387,000 $457,000 Variable costs 217,000 277,000 Fixed costs 154,500 142,000 Required: 1. What was the actual operating income for the period? 2. What was the company's master (static) budget operating income for the period? 3. (a) What was the total master (static) budget variance, in terms of operating income, for the period? (b) Is this variance favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)? (Note: The total master (static) budget variance is also referred to as the total operating income variance for the period.) (If a variance has no amount, select "None" in the corresponding dropdown cell.) 4. The total master (static) budget variance for a period can be decomposed into a total flexible-budget variance and a sales volume variance. (a) What was the total flexible-budget variance for the period? (b) Was this variance favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)? (c) What was the sales volume variance for the period? (d) Was this variance favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. If a variance has no amount, select "None" in the corresponding dropdown cell.)
