Respuesta :

Answer:

activity variance =  $984 F

Explanation:

given data

wages and salaries = $1,420 per month

per birth = $246

planned for activity = 107  births

actual level of activity = 103 births

actual wages and salaries = $27,795

to find out

activity variance for wages and salaries

solution

we know wages and salaries cost for October is

wages and salaries Planning budget  = 1420 + ( 107 × 246 )

wages and salaries Planning budget = $27742

and

Wages and salaries  Flexible budget = 1420 + ( 103 × 246 )

Wages and salaries  Flexible budget = $26758

so

activity variance = $27742 - $26758

activity variance =  $984 F
