The following data have been extracted from the budget working papers of WR Co:
Activity (machine hours) Overhead cost
$
10,000 13,468
12,000 14,162
16,000 15,549
18,000 16,242
In November 20X3, the actual activity was 13,780 machine hours and the actual overhead cost incurred was $14,521. Give your answer to the nearest $10.
Calculate the total overhead expenditure variance for November 20X3.
$_________ Favourable/Adverse (select the correct option)

Mr. Green makes salads. The standard plate of salad has 30 g of lettuce (L), 50 g of peppers (P) and 80 g of beetroot (B). The standard prices of the three ingredients are $0.2/kg, 0.4/kg and 0.8/kg respectively. The actual prices were $0.22/kg, $0.38/kg and $0.82/kg.
Mr. Green has been experimenting and so in July he changed the mix of vegetables on the plate thus: 1,500 plates contained 62,000 grams of lettuce, 81,000 grams of peppers and 102,000 grams of beetroot.
What is the cost difference between the actual mix and the standard mix to the nearest cent?

Bloom Limited was the subject of the following press story:
Yellow sells two types of squash ball, the type A and the type B. The standard contribution from these balls is $4 and $5 respectively and the standard profit per ball is $1.50 and $2.40 respectively. The budget was to sell 5 type A balls for every 3 type B balls.
Actual sales were up 20,000 at 240,000 balls with type A balls being 200,000 of that total. Yellow values its stock of balls at standard marginal cost.
What is the value of the adverse sales mix variance?
