Question

Baskin Promotions, Inc. sells T-shirts decorated for a variety of concert performers. The company has developed the following budget for the coming year based on a sales forecast of 81,000 T-shirts:

Cost of goods sold and variable operating expenses vary directly with sales, and the income tax rate is 30% at all levels of operating income.

If the concert season is slow due to poor weather, Baskin estimates that sales could fall to as low as 61,000 T-shirts.

$242,780.

$342,780.

$422,380.

$322,380.

$6.02

$10.26.

$17.51.

Some other amount.

3. Assume Baskin actually achieves the 61,000 unit sales level, and that net income actually earned at this level was $72,300. A performance report would indicate that net income was:

$2,671 over budget.

$43,109 under budget.

$15,939 under budget.

At the budgeted level.
