Beatrice Pierce · Answer 1

C. Efficiency Variance = (Actual Quantity minus Standard Quantity) times Standard Cost

Explanation:

The efficiency variance is the variance in which it shows a difference between the actual and standard quantities and then the difference amount is multiplied with the standard cost

In mathematically,

Efficiency Variance = (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) * Standard Cost

Hence, the correct option is C.
