Respuesta :

Answer:

Option c)  $78,250 unfavorable

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information in the question :

Standard cost = $810,000

Actual cost = $888,250

Cost variance can be calculated as using the following formula :

Cost variance = standard cost - actual cost

                       = 810,000 - 888,250

                       = ($78,250) unfavorable

Favorable indicates how much under budget the project.

unfavorable indicates how much over budget the project.

Therefore, Option c) 78,250 unfavorable is the answer.
