Answer 1

Answer: $942 U

Explanation:

Budgeted cost was $2,960 per month plus $326 per day and there were 18 days of actual activity.

Budgeted cost = 2,960 + 326 * 18

= $‭8,828‬

Variance = Budgeted cost - Actual cost

= ‭8,828‬ - 9,770

= -$942

Budgeted cost is less than Actual cost which means the Variance is UNFAVORABLE.
