Flexed budget is used at the conrol stage does it mean usually actual results we have got? A flexible is designed at the planning stage but also useful for control purposes Purpose of flexed/flexible Useful at planning stage Useful for control device

What you have written is correct except for the fact that the flexed budget is not the actual results - it is the budget as rewritten for the actual level of activity (i.e. actual level of sales and of production). See my lectures working through example 2 of Chapter 11 of our free lecture notes.
