The company uses the number of jobs as its measure of activity. For example, mobile lab operating expenses should be $4,700 plus $33 per job, and the actual mobile lab operating expenses for February were $9,160. The company expected to work 140 jobs in February, but actually worked 142 jobs. Required: Prepare a flexible budget performance report showing AirQual Test Corporation revenue and spending variances and activity variances for February. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i. e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Spending variances  226 Un Favorable

Activity variances 66 UnFavorable

Explanation:

Budgeted mobile lab operating expenses  $4,700 plus $33 per job,

Actual mobile lab operating expenses  February  $9,160.

Budgeted  jobs in February, 140

actually worked 142 jobs

Lab Operating Expense     9386                       9160               226 UnFav            

Spending variances = Actual Expenses - budgeted Expenses

Spending variances = $9,160-  ($4,700 +$33 *142)

Spending variances = $9,160-  ($4,700 +$4686)

Spending variances = $9,160- 9386= 226 Un Favorable

Activity variances = Flexible Budget Expenses -  Planned budgeted Expenses

Activity variances = $9,386-  ($4,700 +$33 *140)

Activity variances = $9,386-  ($4,700 +$4620)

Activity variances = $9,386- 9320= 66 UnFavorable
