Answer:

$354 Favorable

Explanation:

Net Operating Income in Planned budget = Revenue - Total Expense

Net Operating Income in Planned budget = (3,100*$35.10) - (3,100*$17.40 + $44,400)

Net Operating Income in Planned budget = $108,810 - $98,340

Net Operating Income in Planned budget = $10,470

Net Operating Income in Flexible budget = Revenue - Total Expense

Net Operating Income in Flexible budget = (3,080*$35.10) - (3,080*$17.40 + $44,400)

Net Operating Income in Flexible budget = $108,108 - $97,992

Net Operating Income in Flexible budget = $10,116

Activity variance for net operating income = Net Operating Income in Planned budget - Net Operating Income in Flexible budget

Activity variance for net operating income = $10,470 - $10,116

Activity variance for net operating income = $354 Favorable
