Using the downloaded data and spreadsheet
program, load the file titled
“Budget.” Examine the worksheet carefully and locate the following
schedules:
• WPA.6—Budgeted vs. actual income statements for 2009
• Schedule 1—Cost of goods manufactured
• Schedule 2—Operating expenses
Compare with the results of requirement (3). Do any of the variances,
when considered in relation to the results of requirement (3), raise warning
signals? Print the budget.

Based on the data from the "2009-budget.pdf" which includes:
WPA.6 — Budgeted vs. Actual Income Statements for 2009
Schedule 1 — Cost of Goods Manufactured
Schedule 2 — Operating Expenses
and comparing it with the ratios and figures calculated in requirement (3), here is the analysis:

Warning Signals Based on Variances Compared to Requirement (3)
Sales below budget (-10.93%) strongly affects gross profit and net income negatively.
Gross profit lower by 27.85% than budget signals problems with pricing, volume, or costs.
Direct labor costs 13% above budget could indicate inefficiencies or increased wage rates.
Operating income and net income substantially below budget indicate serious profitability
issues.
Positive variance in operating expenses (under budget) somewhat offsets losses but not
enough.
Overall, the large unfavorable variances in sales and labor cost, combined with falling
profits, should be warning signals triggering further management review and audit focus—
consistent with the concerning ratios from requirement (3).
