Solution

The correct option is B More than anticipated normal wastage in the manufacturing process
Material usage variance is calculated by having a difference between Standard quantity of material minus the actual quantity of material. If excess quantity is used to produce a unit than the standard quantity, it is an unfavorable material usage variance. This might be due to more than the anticipated normal wastage.
