Overview
CostCentersPlus is a feature-rich variance analysis solution with
a polished user interface.
CostCentersPlus incorporates the best practices and newest
technologies to provide the required functionality for you to
analyze and control your cost structures in the most effective
way possible.
Understanding Variance Analysis
Many businesses, especially the small, entrepreneurial kind,
ignore or forget the other half of the budgeting.
Budgets are too often proposed, discussed, accepted, but then
forgotten.
Variance analysis looks after-the-fact at what caused a
difference between plan vs. actual.
Good management looks at what that difference means to the
business.
CostCentersPlus provides a new way of looking at the plan vs.
actual data that owners and managers need to perform that
critical variance analysis.
With CostCentersPlus you can:
perform flexible variance analyses;
perform period-over-period comparisons;
break down your analyses by debit and credit;
With CostCentersPlus you can:
generate meaningful ratio calculations (actual figures prorated
to actual+planned) as well as intuitive dashboard indicators for
ratios, and top-down bar charts for variances (hot-linked for
instant drill-down);
With CostCentersPlus you can:
start with a high level inspection of costs, then drill down, or
start at a lower level and drill up using cost center and cost
element hierarchies that you are already familiar with from
working with your ERP solution. Both the cost center and cost
element hierarchies are expandable and collapsible
independently of each other, allowing you to determine the
depth of detail desired;

The amounts in each report cell are dictated by the intersection
of the cost center (group) and cost element (group) selected.
By drilling down (or up) into any combination of cost center
(group) and cost element (group) in the hierarchies, the report
will determine the costs associated with that selection and
refresh the screen accordingly.

Final Notes
Although variance analysis can be very complex, the main guide
is common sense.
Going under budget is a positive variance, and over budget is a
negative variance, but positive variances aren't always good
news.
For example, positive variances in advertising in February mean
that money has not been spent, but they also mean that
advertising has not been placed.
Product sales are below expectations for this same period.
Could the advertising missed in February be a possible cause?
Yes, of course it could.
Final Notes
Every variance should stimulate questions.
Why did one project cost more or less?
Were objectives met?
Is a positive variance a cost saving or a failure to implement?
Is a negative variance a change in plans, a management failure,
or an unrealistic budget?
A variance table like the one CostCentersPlus offers can provide
management with significant information.
Without this data, some of these important questions might go
unasked.
