    The Preparation of responsibility report is shown below:-

    Responsibility report

    Torres Company

    For the year ended December 31, 2020

    Particulars Budgeted Actual Difference

    Sales a $2,076,800 $2,240,000 $163,200 Favorable

    Variable costs b $1,002,000 $1,054,100 $52,100 Unfavorable

    Contribution

    margin $1,074,800 $1,185,900 $111,100 Favorable

    c = a - b

    Controllable

    fixed costs d $298,600 $303,800 $5,200 Unfavorable

    Controllable

    margin $776,200 $882,100 $105,900 Favorable

    e = c - d

    Therefore if budgeted is higher than actual then it will become Favorable and if actual is higher than budgeted than it will become Unfavorable.
