    Correct option is (b)

    Explanation:

    Variance is the difference between standard cost and actual cost. A favorable variance is when actual cost is less than the standard cost. It indicates positive results which means that all control standards are met.

    Standard cost is the budgeted or expected cost that the company estimates. It stands as a benchmark. If actual cost is more than standard then there is unfavorable variance.
