Documentation

Definition

Variance category on the output side.

Difference between the actual credit and the target credit due to differences between the allocated and the manually posted actual quantities.

Use

Variance calculation calculates the output quantity variances by period and cost element.

Procedure

The output quantity variance is defined by the following formulas:

Output quantity variance = (Actual qty - Manual actual qty) x
Actual activity price
Fixed output qty variance = (Actual qty - Manual actual qty) x
Fixed actual activity price

Variances that are due to both output price differences and output quantity differences are not assigned to the output quantity variances but are reported instead as output price variances.

If the activity participates in the predistribution of fixed costs, the fixed target credit is not proportional to the operating rate.
