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
The standard cost system is the expected cost per unit product manufactured and it helps in estimating the deviations and controlling them as well as fixing the selling price of the product. For example, it helps to plan the cost for the coming year on the various expenses.

The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is $14 per direct labor hour ($14.00+ 1.0). It was computed from a master
manufacturing overhead budget based on normal production of 5,200 direct labor hours (5.200 units) for the month. The master
budget showed total variable overhead costs of $36,400 ($7.00 per hour) and total fixed overhead costs of $36,400 ($7.00 per hour)
Actual costs for October in producing 5.100 units were as follows.

The purchasing department buys the quantities of raw materials that are expected to be used in production each month. Raw
materials inventories, therefore, can be ignored.
