Required:

Prepare a flexible budget performance report that shows both activity variances and revenue and spending variances for the pizzeria for November. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e. zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

I just need help how to find the revenue activity variance and spending variences for pizza. Please tell me how I can find that.

No wonder you were wanting paid. You're just going around doing people's work for them. It's not fun spending all that time for free when you don't even know if the student did any work, is it?
