    Option (C) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Vehicle operating cost = $1,060 per month

    Vehicle operating cost = $429 per snow-day

    Company planned for activity = 11 snow-days

    Actual level of activity = 13 snow-days

    Actual vehicle operating cost for the month = $6,310

    Activity Variance:

    = (Budgeted - Actual) * (Budgeted Contribution Margin Per unit)

    = (11 - 13) ($429)

    = $858 U
