Vroom-Vroom manufactures ride-on cars for toddlers and young children. They have a fiscal year of August through July. When they were preparing their budget, they couldn’t decide if a static or flexible budget would be best for their company – so they did both. It is now February, and their accounting department is catching up on analyzing variances for both December and January. Vroom-Vroom would like to use this opportunity to determine whether they would be better off with a static or flexible budget going forward. They want to choose which budget and related variance analysis provides them the best information for decision-making.

Their static budget is based on 200,000 cars sold per month. Assume that all units produced in a month are also sold in that month. Vroom-Vroom’s unit of production/sale is a car (unit/each).Here are the Actual Results in December and January:Question 1: Prepare a static budget in Excel for Vroom-Vroom based on 200,000 units produced.
