Option B i.e. Variance analysis is the correct answer.
Below theory on performance reports and calculation of variances
will help in understanding the concept:-
q1: On the basis of the budget reports,
management analyzes differences between actual and planned
results.
management may take corrective action.
management may modify the future plans.
All of these answers are correct.
q2: Which one of the statements is correct about controllable
costs?
More costs are controllable as one moves downward in management
levels.
Variable costs are controllable and fixed costs are not.
A cost is controllable if it is incurred directly in a
manager’s division or segment.

A variance is the difference between a budgeted, planned, or
standard cost and the actual amount
incurred/sold. Variances can be computed for both costs and
revenues. Identify and explain the types
of variance analysis tools, which can be used in a production
department of a manufacturing company,
which specialises in spare parts for cars
What are the differences between the economic theories and the
reality of policy implementation?
How have market outcomes changed over time as a result of the
policies?
Identify at least two (2) short-term
outcomes (results) to achieve the successful
implementation of an STI screening program.
Note: Your outcomes should be SMART, meaning they
should be specific and measurable. Short-term outcomes measure
gains in knowledge and/or skills.
State at least two (2) medium-term
outcomes (results) to achieve the successful
implementation of an STI screening program. Note:
Medium-term outcomes measure changes in behavior.
State one (1) long-term outcome (result) to
achieve the successful implementation of an STI screening program....
What are the differences between "incremental" and
"revolutionary" strategies, as well as "intended" and "actual"
strategies? Do you think one is more valuable than the other? If
so, why? Have you considered what the barriers to strategic
planning are? What might those challenges be in your sphere? How
can an organization overcome barriers to strategic planning?
