  2. Price variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_Variance

    Price variance (Vmp) is a term used in cost accounting which denotes the difference between the expected cost of an item (standard cost) and the actual cost at the time of purchase. [1] The price of an item is often affected by the quantity of items ordered, and this is taken into consideration.

  3. Sales volume variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sales_variance

    There are two reasons actual sales can vary from planned sales: either the volume sold varied from the expected quantity, known as sales volume variance, or the price point at which units were sold differed from the expected price points, known as sales price variance. Both scenarios could also simultaneously contribute to the variance.

  4. Variance (accounting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variance_(accounting)

    Variance analysis can be carried out for both costs and revenues. Variance analysis is usually associated with explaining the difference (or variance) between actual costs and the standard costs allowed for the good output. For example, the difference in materials costs can be divided into a materials price variance and a materials usage variance.

  5. Cost–volume–profit analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost–volume–profit...

    Cost–volume–profit (CVP), in managerial economics, is a form of cost accounting. It is a simplified model, useful for elementary instruction and for short-run decisions. It is a simplified model, useful for elementary instruction and for short-run decisions.

  6. Realized variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realized_variance

    Realized variance or realised variance (RV, see spelling differences) is the sum of squared returns.For instance the RV can be the sum of squared daily returns for a particular month, which would yield a measure of price variation over this month.

  7. Volatility (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volatility_(finance)

    Volatility does not measure the direction of price changes, merely their dispersion. This is because when calculating standard deviation (or variance), all differences are squared, so that negative and positive differences are combined into one quantity. Two instruments with different volatilities may have the same expected return, but the ...

  8. Direct material price variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_material_price_variance

    In variance analysis (accounting) direct material price variance is the difference between the standard cost and the actual cost for the actual quantity of material purchased. It is one of the two components (the other is direct material usage variance ) of direct material total variance .

  9. Direct material total variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_material_total_variance

    In variance analysis (accounting) direct material total variance is the difference between the actual cost of actual number of units produced and its budgeted cost in terms of material. Direct material total variance can be divided into two components: the direct material price variance, the direct material usage variance.
