    Question 61 Spike in BPP kit:
    Please give me the formula of these variance.
    I confuse betweem the way to calculate them in BPP and in the notes of my lecturer.
    In the note, my lecturer wrote:
    Market-size variance = ( Actual market size in units – Budgeted market size in units) * budgeted market share * budgeted margin per unit.
    But in the answer of BPP it multiplise with standard contribution.

    The standard contribution per unit means the same thing as the budgeted margin per unit.

    I have one more question. Budgeted market share is calculated as a percentage of total market share?
