What is variance?

In most production management systems, a "Planned" quantity and material cost is calculated based on the associated Bill of Materials (BOM) and Operatons being performed (Route) creating labor and overhead related costs. The "Actual" quantities, material costs, and labor/overhead costs are issued to a Work in Process (WIP) account and the quantities/values of the produced items are recieved from the WIP account. A variance usually occurs when there is a difference between the issued material cost plus labor and overhead and the recieved material cost of the produced item. The reasons for these variances can be differences in planned vs actual quantities, differences in system or planned cost of materials, labor, or overhead vs actual cost, or any other potential reason for an unplanned difference.
