Budget Solutions has determined from its flexible budget that selling costs for actual level activity for a period should have been $25,000. Actual selling costs incurred during the period were $28,000. What is the amount and direction of variance in selling costs?

The variance of $3000 is adverse variance.

Explanation:

The reason is that increase in cost is always an adverse sign for the business. Similarly increase in revenue is always a positive sign for the business.
