When calculating market size (Planning ) and market size (operational) sales volume variance respectively.
Market size – 30000/.1 = 300000
After contract and revised units – 300000*95*15 – 42750
Market size is (Revised – Budgeted)* Std P/cont (28500-30000) and operational (Actual – revised) *Std cont – (42750- 26000) *600Checking at the solution in Kaplaan, variance is (opposite)(Bud – Revised ) market size and same goes for operational (Revised – Actual)
Please clear my doubt where i went wrongFebruary 15, 2025 at 9:05 am #715416Market share is Actual to Revised because any difference is due to the share of the market achieved being different ie that you actually have sold larger or smaller (qty ) that is once you have revised/amended your belief of what you can achieve .
Market size is what you can achieve realistically, what you budgeted the size to be compared to what you have seen it grow or contract to. So you revise/ amend.
Actual
This gives share
Revised
This gives size
