    Much more likely that you will be given variances and asked to comment on them or give reasons for them. It is extremely unlikely that you will have to calculate any.

    Then only syllabus reference is “Evaluate budgeting, standard costing and variance analysis in support of strategic planning and decision making.”

    Read my response. I said that it is extremely unlikely that you will be asked to carry out calculations.
