Answer 1

Answer:

$666 Favorable

Explanation:

The computation of Activity variance is shown below:-

For computing the activity variance first we need to compute the Planning budget and flexible budget

Planning budget = $35,900 + $11.10 × 3,650

= $76,415

Flexible budget = $35,900 + $11.10 × 3,590

= $75,749

Activity variable = Activity variance - Flexible budget  

= $76,415 - $75,749

= $666 Favorable
