Flexible budget variance = flexible budget costs actual costs. = (number of actual surgeries or nursing hrs. allowed per surgery standard cost per surgery) actual cost. = sh flexible budget variance: price variance. = (standard price actual price) actual quantity of or nursing hrs. = ,000 f price variance: efficiency variance. = (standard quantity actual quantity) standard price.
