Static Budget = $200,000

Flexible Budget = $208,000

Explanation:

Static Budget is based on standard activity that reflects that Rooney Company use 10,000 Direct Labour every month on Standard. In order get the direct Labour cost for static budget we use the following formula (Standard hour of activity x Standard direct labour cost per hour). The static budget for direct labour cost (10000 direct labour hour x $ 20) = $200,000.

In order to get flexible budget value for direct labour cost we use actual hour used and standard direct labour cost per hour. So flexible budget is (10400 direct labour hour x $ 20 per Labour hour) = $208000
