Fixed Overhead Expenditure Variance Budgeted Fixed Costs - Actual Fixed Costs 1,50,000 - 1,80,000 -30,000. Since the actual cost is higher than the budget, the variance is adverse. Note - Expenditure variance or spending variance relies solely on the difference between the actual cost incurred and the budgeted or standard cost allowed because it is specifically designed to isolate price and usage efficiency from volume changes. As such, the difference in units produced, does not impact the fixed overhead expenditure variance.
