Based on the discount offered and the cost of advertising, your budget variance is $500 and it is a surplus.

How much do you spend on advertising?

You need to advertise for 6 months which means that you will pay for two three-month advertising seasons.

The first season will cost $2,000 because of the discount and the second season will cost $2,500. Total cost is:

= 2,000 + 2,500

= $4,500

What is the Budget surplus?

= Budget - Amount spent

= 5,000 - 4,500

= $500
