Variance Analysis
In layman's terms, variance analysis is an analysis of a difference between planned and actual behavior. Variance analysis is mainly used by the companies to maintain a control over a business. After analyzing differences, companies find the reasons for the variance so that the necessary steps should be taken to correct that variance.
Standard Costing
The standard cost system is the expected cost per unit product manufactured and it helps in estimating the deviations and controlling them as well as fixing the selling price of the product. For example, it helps to plan the cost for the coming year on the various expenses.

Company budgeted production level in units is 60,000 units of output with a budgeted fixed cost of $480,000 and budgeted variable cost of $348,000. Each unit requires 2 hours of direct labor. (Use T accounts to help yourself)
Actual results:
Production: 58,500 units
Direct labor hours used: 128,700
Total actual MOH costs incurred: $819,228
Total actual FIXED MOH costs incurred: $480,643
