Required information (The following information applles to the questions displayed below.) The Munchkin Theater is a nonprofit organization devoted to staging plays for children. The theater has a very small full- time professional administrative staff. Through a special arrangement with the actors' union, actors and directors rehearse without pay and are paid only for actual performances. The Munchkin Theater has asked for your help in preparing a Planning budget at the beginning of the year and evaluating actual expenses at the end of the year. The theater expects to put on five different productions with a total of 60 performances. For example, one of the productions is Peter Rabbit, which had been budgeted for five performances. After interviewing various people affiliated with the theater you have developed the following estimated cost formulas for each of the eight expenses that will be included in your Planning budget: Per Production Cost Formulas Per Performance $2,400 $450 $ Pixed 180 $8,600 Actors' and directors' wages Stagehands' wages Ticket booth personnel and ushers' wages Scenery, costumes, and props Theater hall rent Printed programs Publicity Administrative expenses $ $ 750 175 $2,600 $1,296 $ 72 $ 32,400 By the end of the year, The Munchkin Theater actually put on four productions and a total of 64 performances. The actual expenses incurred during the year were as follows: Actors and directors' wages $159, 200 Stagehands' wages 28,600 Ticket booth personal and ushers' wages 12,300 Seenery, costumes, and prope 39,300 Theater hall rent 49,600 Printed programs 10,950 Publicity 12,000 Administrative expenses 41,650 Total $ 353,600 Click here to download the Excel template that you will use to create the Planning Budget and Flexible Budget Performance Report Once you complete the Planning Budget and Flexible Budget Performance Report, refer to your work to answer the forthcoming questions.

Copy your IF-THEN statement from cell J10 into cells J11 through J18. What label appears for the administrative expense sales volume variance. For U? 7. The sales volume variances in column I are influenced by two cost drivers-number of productions and number of performances. Therefore: a. In cell 121 create a formula that quantifies the portion of the overall sales volume variance that is caused solely by the fact that The Munchkin Theatre actually put on four productions instead of the planned number of five productions. What is the amount in cell 121? b. In cell 122 create a formula that quantifies the portion of the overall sales volume variance that is caused solely by the fact that The Munchkin Theatre actually put on 64 performances instead of the planned number of 60 performances. What is the amount in cell 122? c. Create IF-THEN statements in cells J21 and J22 that properly label your variances in cells 121 and 122 as favorable (F) or unfavorable (U). 8. Using Conditional Formatting, highlight all static budget variances that varied by an absolute value of $1,000 or more. How many of the static budget variances are highlighted?
