Final Answer : B, Explanation :  The flexible budget for supplies cost is calculated as the fixed cost plus the variable cost per unit times the actual number of units. Therefore, for 713 frames, the calculation is $1,350 (fixed cost) + $18 (variable cost per frame) * 713 (actual frames) = $1,350 + $12,834 = $14,184.
