Explanation / Answer

Actual Number of patient-visits = 3,700
Actual Laundry Cost = $17,650
Budgeted Laundry Cost = $4.90 per patient-visit

Budgeted Laundry Cost = $4.90 * 3,700
Budgeted Laundry Cost = $18,130

Spending Variance for Laundry Cost = Budgeted Laundry Cost - Actual Laundry Cost
Spending Variance for Laundry Cost = $18,130 - $17,650
Spending Variance for Laundry Cost = $480 Favorable
