Failure to record the adjusting entry for depreciation results in assets and owner's equity being overstated on the balance sheet.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2

Flexible budget, direct materials and direct manufacturing labor variances.

Milan Statuary manufactures bust statues of famous historical figures. All statues are the same size. Each unit requires the same amount of resources. The following information is from the static budget for 2014:

Standard quantities, standard prices, and standard unit costs follow for direct materials and direct manufacturing labor:

During 2014, actual number of units produced and sold was 5,100, at an average selling price of 730. Actual cost of direct materials used was 1,149,400, based on 70,000 pounds purchased at 16.42 per pound. Direct manufacturing labor-hours actually used were 17,000, at the rate of 33.70 per hour. As a result, actual direct manufacturing labor costs were 572,900. Actual fixed costs were 1,200,000. There were no beginning or ending inventories.

Required:
1. Calculate the sales-volume variance and flexible-budget variance for operating income.
2. Compute price and efficiency variances for direct materials and direct manufacturing labor.
