    Dear Sir,

    I can’t thank you enough for all the valuable lectures & practice notes.

    I have a question on Fxed O/Hs Expenditure variance-
    Why are we comparing the Actual Total at Actual price with Standard budgeted at Standard price?
    For Expenditure/Price variance are we not suppose to compare Actual Quantity at Actual Price with ACTUAL QUANTITY at Standard Price?

    Kindly help me with the confusion..
    Thanks & regards

    For the fixed overhead expenditure variance, you compare the actual total fixed overheads with the budget total fixed overheads.
