cost variance due to price and usage factors
6y ago#1Variable cost variances are calculated by comparing actual costs to flexed budget costs. Ie, for the output achieved what should the cost have been? The original budgeted output is not relevant.
8800 units should cost 8800 x 5 = 44,000
They did cost 44380.
Varaince = 380 Adverse
