Question

Congratulations you have just been hired by Winter Company! Your job is to prepare their monthly performance report. The report is presented to management each month. Report includes the following: 1. A budget versus actual analysis for the contribution margin income statement. The format of the report is a four column report, with Actual data, Budgeted data, the dollar amount of the variance and the variance %. The Variance percentage is calculated by dividing the budget variance by the budgeted dollar amount. 2. An analysis of Capital Turnover, Return on Sales, Residual Income and Return on Investment. These four performance measurements are calculated for the budgeted and actual data. They also include a budget variance for these items (but they do not calculate a variance % for these items.) Prepare the performance report for Winter Company. Make your own conclusions about their budgeted versus actual performance.
