[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]
Stanley manufactures and sells insulated cups and mugs. The static budget was prepared before an unexpected, viral marketing campaign driven by spontaneous endorsements by online influencers. As a result of this campaign, sales, and therefore production sky-rocketed. Importantly, during the year, purchasing managers renegotiated some materials costs during the year, HR negotiated a higher wage for workers who were now working in higher pressure conditions, and the organization leased new facilities for production and inventory.
