Market Size & Market Share variances

JJohn4y ago
Sales Usage variance is sub-divided into a Planning & Operational variance. (1) Market Size variance is calculated as: (Standard Sales - Revised Standard Sales) x Profit/unit [It is actually same as Sales Usage Planning variance] (2) Market Share variance is calculated as: (Revised Standard Sales - Actual Sales) x Profit/unit [It is actually same as Sales Usage Operational variance] Is it all true?

Yes, except it is not called the sales usage variance, but is called the sales volume variance.
