Variance Analysis
In layman's terms, variance analysis is an analysis of a difference between planned and actual behavior. Variance analysis is mainly used by the companies to maintain a control over a business. After analyzing differences, companies find the reasons for the variance so that the necessary steps should be taken to correct that variance.
Standard Costing

Sandy Robison, operations manager, was reviewing the results for November when he became upset by the unfavorable variances he
was seeing. In an attempt to understand what had happened, Sandy asked CFO Suzy Summers for more information. She provided the
following overhead budgets, along with the actual results for November.
Annual Budget
$449,000
The company purchased 82,000 yards of fabric and used 93,600 yards of fabric during the month. Fabric purchases during the month
were made at $2.80 per yard. The direct labor payroll ran $459,375, with an actual hourly rate of $12.25 per direct labor hour. The
annual budgets were based on the production of 600,000 shirts, using 450,000 direct labor hours. Though the budget for November
was based on 45.500 shirts, the company actually produced 42,000 shirts during the month.
