Answer:
Flexible budget variance is the difference of the actual results and the flexible budget results.
Actual Sales volume is usually lower than expected . So static budget is prepared to find the differences at lower levels of sales so that the sales prices could be adjusted using variances.

First we compare the actual and the flexible budget as given in the question and write down the variances . Then we compare the flexible budget for which level of output production is 5700 and static budget for which we have taken the output level of production 5500 units . The fixed costs remain constant and variances can be calculated for each change in variable for the 5500 output units of production. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
