Answer: a.exceed the revenue price variance and be favorable
Explanation:
Revenue Volume x Revenue Price = Total Revenue
From the above formula, for the Total Revenue to be variated positively and yet the Revenue Price is of Negative Variance, it would follow logically that the other variable in the transaction contributed to the favorable variance of the Total Revenue apart from the Revenue Price.
The only other variable is the Revenue Volume. The Revenue volume must therefore have been large and favorable enough to offset the Negative Variance of the Revenue Price.
