    Explanation:

    given data

    wages and salaries = $1,540 per month

    per birth = $497

    activity = 112 births

    actual wages and salaries = $56,850

    to find out

    activity variance for wages and salaries in March

    solution

    we get here Wages and salaries in Planning budget is here express as

    Wages and salaries in Planning budget = 1540 + (497 * 112)

    Wages and salaries in Planning budget = $57204 ... 1

    and

    Wages and salaries in Flexible budget will be here

    Wages and salaries in Flexible budget = 1540 + (497 * 107)

    Wages and salaries in Flexible budget = $54719 ... 2

    so Activity variance will be difference of equation 1 and 2

    Activity variance = $57204 - $54719

    Activity variance = $2485 F
