How Do Managers Use Budgets to
Control Business Activities?
Managers use budgets for planning and
controlling business activities.
The master budget focuses on the
planning step.
The controlling step focuses on the
decisions managers make during and after
the budgeting period, based on the actual
results.

Performance Reports Using
Static Budgets
The master budget is a static budget,
which means it is prepared for only one
level of sales volume.
A variance is the difference between an
actual amount and the budgeted amount.
A static budget variance is the difference
between actual results and the expected
results in the static budget.

Performance Reports Using
Static Budgets
Variances are:
Favorable (F) if an actual amount increases
operating income:
Actual revenue > Budgeted revenue
Actual expense < Budgeted expense
Unfavorable (U) if an actual amount decreases
operating income:
Actual revenue < Budgeted revenue
Actual expense > Budgeted expense

How Do Journal Entries Differ in a
Standard Cost System?
Using a standard cost system simplifies
the recording process because entries are
made at standard costs.
Variances are recorded as soon as
possible.
