The total operating expenses budgeted for July are
A) $23,900.
B) $14,800.
C) $25,500.
D) $14,400.
Answer: C
Explanation: C)
Inventory $ 95,000 10% = $9,500 Office and Adm. Expense
Total Payroll
$13,200
- fixed payroll
-3,600
= variable payroll = $ 9,600 divided by Sales = 6% (payroll as a % of Sales)
Now: $ 180,000 6% = $ 10,800
+ 3,600
= $ 14,400

Variable Payroll
Fixed
Total Payroll

Finally Payroll
$ 14,400
+ Office and Adm. expense
9,500
+ Depreciation

+ Insurance

= Total Operating Expense

105) List the operating budgets. Describe the purpose of each of the budgets listed and the order in which
they are prepared. Describe how the budgets are interrelated.
Answer: The operating budgets are as follows:
1. Sales budget shows the number of units to be sold and the total sales revenue.
2. Production budget shows the number of units to be produced to support the sales to be made.
3. Direct materials budget shows the amount and dollar amount of direct materials to be purchased to
support the production budget.
4. Direct labor budget shows the number of direct labor hours required to support the number of
products to be purchased from the production budget.
5. Manufacturing overhead budget shows the budgeted manufacturing overhead to be incurred to
support the number of units being produced as denoted on the production budget.
6. Operating expenses budget all research and development, design, marketing, distribution, and
customer service costs will be shown on the operating expenses budget.
7. Budgeted income statement is constructed after preparing all of the above budgets.
The operating budgets are the budgets needed to run the daily operations of the company. The operating
budgets culminate in a budgeted income statement. The starting point of the operating budgets is the
sales budget, because it affects most other components of the master budget. After estimating sales,
manufacturers prepare the production budget, which determines how many units need to be produced.
Once production volume is established, managers prepare the budgets determining the amounts of direct
materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead that will be needed to meet production. Next,
managers prepare the operating expenses budget. After all of these budgets are prepared, management
will be able to prepare the budgeted income statement.

169) Define operating budgets and financial budgets. List the specific budgets which are operating
budgets. List the specific budgets which are financial budgets.
Answer: Operating budgets:
1. sales budget
2. production budget
3. direct materials budget
4. direct labor budget
5. manufacturing overhead budget
6. operating expenses budget
7. budgeted income statement
The operating budgets are the budgets needed to run the daily operations of the company. The operating
budgets culminate in a budgeted income statement. The starting point of the operating budgets is the
sales budget, because it affects most other components of the master budget. After estimating sales,
manufacturers prepare the production budget, which determines how many units need to be produced.
Once production volume is established, managers prepare the budgets determining the amounts of direct
materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead that will be needed to meet production. Next,
managers prepare the operating expenses budget. After all of these budgets are prepared, management
will be able to prepare the budgeted income statement.
Financial budgets:
1. capital expenditures budget
2. cash budgets
3. budgeted balance sheet
The financial budgets project the collection and payment of cash, as well as forecast the company's
budgeted balance sheet. The capital expenditure budget shows the company's plan for purchasing
property, plant, and equipment. The cash budget projects the cash that will be available to run the
company's operations and determines whether the company will have extra funds to invest or whether
the company will need to borrow cash. Finally, the budgeted balance sheet forecasts the company's
position at the end of the budget period.
