sorry this is the question to the data

Vegfrost Corporation produces cases of frozen food. During May, the company produced and sold 1.450 cases of food and incurred the following actual costs: Variable overhead 11,000 Fixed overhead E25,000 Actual labour cost (8,000 direct-labour hours) E151.200 Actual material cost (30,000 kilos purchased and used) 56.000 The actual selling price per case was 240. Overheads are budgeted and applied using direct-labour hours in a standard costing system Standard cost and budget information for May are as follows: Standard cost per case: Direct labour (5 hours at E18 per hour) Direct material (20 kilos at 2 per kilo) Variable overhead (5 direct-labour hours at 1.50 per hour) Fixed overhead (5 direct-labour hours at 3 per hour) Total ESO 40 7.50 15 152.50 May sales budget information: Budgeted revenues Budgeted selling price per case 345.000 230 Given the perishable nature of the product, to prepare the budget. Vegtrost assumed that all cases produced in May would be sold (there is no inventory of cases) Required: a) Prepare a budgeted profit and loss statement and an actual profit and loss statement for May, using a contribution margin format, and indicate the total profit variance. b) Flex the budget calculate the flexible budget variances for all items and the overall flexible budget variance. Indicate if each variance is favourable or unfavourable When flexing the budget, please note that output volume for this business is the number of cases produced and sold.
