I think the way WIP Variance is used normally is as an expense account; if this is the way your account is set up (as an "E" type) it should be on your income statement and should not be on your balance sheet. If it is an asset account and it is showing up on the income statement, you may have it included it in the range of accounts normally used as expense accounts, but you have made it an asset. On the default income statement, this would happen if you made and account in the normal expense range (500--'s) an asset account. Conversely, it will not show up on the balance sheet because the normal range of assets in in the 100--'s. To use an account out of the normal range as a different type, you need to do a custom statement for both income and balance sheet.
