After several months of using such variance reports, the owner has become frustrated. For example, she is quite confident that instructor wages were very tightly controlled in July, but the report shows an unfavorable variance.

The planning budget was developed using the following formulas, where qis the number of lessons sold:

 

Cost Formulas

  Revenue

$205q  

  Instructor wages

$62q  

  Aircraft depreciation

$39q  

  Fuel

$19q  

  Maintenance

$ 640 + $14q  

  Ground facility expenses

$1,620 + $2q  

  Administration

   $4,200 + $1q  

 

Required:

Complete the flexible budget performance report for the school for July. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).)
