    The activity variance for cleaning equipment and supplies in April would be closest to = - $225

    Explanation:

    Cost formula for cleaning equipment and supplies = $2,540 + $45 per boat

    Since the actual level of activity is 11 boats the budgeted costs for 11 boats will be $2,540 + $45*11 = $3,035

    Actual costs for the 11 boats = $3,260

    Activity variance = Budgeted - Actual activity cost = $3,035 - $3,260

    = - $225

    Since the actual cost of activity is more than budgeted cost of activity, the activity variance is unfavorable and closest to - $225.
