You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question, so ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about and then I will explain.
I assume that you have watched my free lectures on variances, in which case you will know how to calculate the budgeted profit and will also know that the difference between the actual and budgeted profit is equal to the total of all of the variances.
