Answer:

1. b) $2 U

2. d) $2800 F

3. a) $6920 F

4. d) $10253 F

Explanation:

1) The activity variance for administrative expenses in May would be closest to: (3000-3020)*.10 = 2 U

Therefore, answer is b) $2 U

2) Revenue variance = (38*4100)-158600 = 2800 F

Hence, answer is d) $2800 F

3) Revenue variance = (5940*32.60)-200564 = 6920 F

So answer is a) $6920 F

4) Spending variance for plane operating costs = (39590+2649*85+4*297)-255690 = 10253 F

So answer is d) $10253 F
