What is a positive or negative variance of a budget?
A variance is the difference between the projected budget and the actual performance for a particular account. A negative variance means that the budgeted amount was greater than the actual amount spent. A positive variance means that the budgeted amount was less than the actual amount spent. Note there is some debate over whether a negative variance means an underrun or an overrun. The Project Management Institute, however, endorses the accepted convention that a negative variance is a bad thing, and a positive variance a good thing.
Can heritability be negative value?
Yes, but negative variance indicates environmental variance (i.e., within-family or within-strain) is unusually high, possibly due to poor experimental design. Narrow sense heritability (h2, not H2) = (phenotypic variance - environmental variance) / phenotypic variance.
What is varience?
